"Learning about the various aspects of this natural world, through Northwest Science’s diverse coverage, enriches our lives and strengthens the connection between people and nature, making the world a bit brighter." Quote by Dr. Lucy Kerhoulas, Editor-in-Chief, Northwest Science. Photo of Dr. Kerhoulas in the forest conducting research.

Got out to check out some old growth stands at the H.J. Andrews and the McKenzie Land Trust Stage 8 restoration site on our final day of #NWSA2025. Really neat to tie in all the great PNW forest talks from the meeting with some time out actually in the field.
