State of the Coronado National Forest
The Coronado National Forest is split into 12 Ecosystem Management Areas (EMAs) that are centered on one or more major mountain ranges in the Sky Island region. Threats to the Coronado National Forest are rampant. Many of the most pressing issues that must be addressed in revising the Land and Resource Management Plan are Forest wide.
State of the Coronado National Forest: An Assessment and Recommendations for the 21st Century is a tool to channel a wealth of site-specific information into conservation of the Coronado's ecosystems. This report examines history, natural history, current conditions, and threats on the Coronado National Forest and provides management recommendations. Broken into 13 chapters with the initial chapter containing an overview of the Forest and forest-wide recommendations based on the Coronado Planning Partnership Statement of Principles. The overview chapter lays the background for the reaming 12 chapters that are each devoted to an individual Ecosystem Management Area, with issues and recommendations specific to that EMA.
