Welcome to the new Cooperative Extension Service Forestry Extension
Web page. This site, although currently under development, is intended to
provide current information on a variety of important forestry issues in
Alaska.
We believe that the public and the timber industry in Alaska needs the
resources of the university system to address changing technology, changing
markets, and vocational training needs for a changing work force. Through
conferences, relevant research and other activities we intend to further
enhance the understanding and support of the public and land resource managers
to the importance of forest management and the forest products industry in
providing for healthy, sustainable, and productive Alaskan forests.
Robert A. Wheeler, Ph.D. is the
forestry specialist for the Cooperative Extension Service at UAF. He has almost
30 years of international forestry experience. This site will be an
online resource for anyone needing Bob's forestry expertise or just
interested in his forestry projects in Alaska.
His office is located in Fairbanks on the UAF campus at the Extension
Statewide office building.
