This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: West Woods, variable density thinning could affect carbon sequestration, trail system human fire risk dense cover areas, forest provides old growth habitat, fire-safe forest perpetuates old growth habitat, elk habitat can degrade shrubs, old growth habitat relies on "decadence", elk habitat relies on open forage areas, infiltration capacity relies on soil structure, nitrogen fixing plants promotes nutrient cycling, nonforest prevent tree encroachment to sustain: wetlands, water regulation contributes to groundwater recharge, soil fauna promotes soil structure, groundwater recharge results in clean potable water, fire-safe forest created by decrease canopy bulk density, large logs & down wood habitat for ants, variable density thinning promotes moderate tree density, litter & duff aids soil fertility, reduced carbon footprint promotes sustainable operations, future cavity habitat eventually provides snags, multiple canopy layers thermal habitat dense cover areas
