The proceedings of the second FVS conference includes 34 papers dealing with applications of FVS that range from the stand-level through full-scale landscape analyses. Forecasts ranging from wildlife habitat indicators through economic returns on investments take into account the effect of insects, pathogens, & fire. Also presented are recent advances in computer visualization technology, the analysis of model prediction uncertainty, model development techniques, software, support tools, & the reconstruction of historical stand conditions.
