Discusses the need for urban forest managers to apply silvicultural practices to urban woodlands. [UMN]

"Forested public lands in urban and fringe areas are typically left unmanaged--dismissing the critical role that disturbance plays in forest ecosystems and bypassing opportunities to reach a wide variety of objectives. By applying silvicultural practices to urban woodlands, forest managers can reap these benefits and improve the existing ecosystem structure." [Abstract]
