Forest Science Program


Forest Science Program Mission Statement: 

"to help provide innovative solutions to high-priority forest management problems in British Columbia and to advance resource stewardship based on scientific principles."

The Forest Science Program consists of the Research Branch (within Forest Stewardship Division) and three regional Forest Science Teams (within Operations Division). Program researchers work in a range of scientific disciplines in silviculture, growth and yield, ecology, earth sciences, and forest genetics.

The Forest Science Program receives invaluable assistance through collaborations with and contributions from staff in regional and district offices, and other branches of the Ministry of Forests. Ministry scientists are actively involved in numerous scientific networks and partnerships with other research organizations in B.C., nationally, and internationally. Top
