  • Michigan Forest Ecosystem Vulnerability Assessment and Synthesis: a Report from the Northwoods Climate Change Response Framework Project
    United States Department of Agriculture Michigan Forest Ecosystem Vulnerability Assessment and Synthesis: A Report from the Northwoods Climate Change Response Framework Project Forest Northern General Technical Service Research Station Report NRS-129 March 2014 ABSTRACT The forests in northern Michigan will be affected directly and indirectly by changing climate during the 21st century. This assessment evaluates the vulnerability of forest ecosystems in the eastern Upper Peninsula and northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan under a range of future climates. We synthesized and summarized information on the contemporary landscape, provided information on past climate trends, and described a range of projected future climates. This information was used to parameterize and run multiple vegetation impact models, which provided a range of potential vegetative responses to climate. Finally, we brought these results before a multidisciplinary panel of scientists and land managers familiar with Michigan forests to assess ecosystem vulnerability through a formal consensus-based expert elicitation process. The summary of the contemporary landscape identifies major forest trends and stressors currently threatening forests in the region. Observed trends in climate over the past century reveal that precipitation increased in the area, particularly in summer and fall, and that daily maximum temperatures increased, particularly in winter. Projected climate trends for the next 100 years using downscaled global climate model data indicate a potential increase in mean annual temperature of 2.2 to 8.1 °F for the assessment area. Projections for precipitation indicate an increase in winter and spring precipitation, and summer and fall precipitation projections vary by scenario. We identified potential impacts on forests by incorporating these climate projections into three forest impact models (Tree Atlas, LANDIS-II, and PnET-CN).

  • Social and Economic Assessment for Michigan's State Forests
    Social and Economic Assessment for Michigan’s State Forests Prepared for: Michigan Department of Natural Resources Forest, Mineral, and Fire Management Division Lansing, Michigan September 5, 2006 Prepared by: Tessa Systems, LLC East Lansing, MI Preface Public Act 125 of 2004, Section 52505, requires the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MiDNR) to seek and maintain third-party sustainable forestry certification. Forest certification requires that MiDNR forest management plans take into consideration social and economic parameters that affect future forest management operations. Currently, the MiDNR is preparing a statewide forest management plan, and each of three eco-teams are drafting ecoregional management plans. The social and economic information provided in this report will be used to assess current social and economic conditions and to develop future management directions within each of the plans. The report focuses primarily on three ecoregions: the Western Upper Peninsula, Eastern Upper Peninsula, and Northern Lower Peninsula as defined by the MIDNR along county boundaries. It covers social and economic conditions within these ecoregions in aggregate and on a county-level basis. As a result data for the areas in and around Michigan state forests are highlighted. The “Social and Economic Assessment for the Michigan National Forests” (July 25, 2003), by Larry Leefers, Karen Potter-Witter, and Maureen McDonough from Michigan State University, provides a general model for this report. The assessment report is based on secondary data. No primary data collection was done. MiDNR personnel provided unpublished data from MiDNR records. The report presents analyses of existing data and discusses relationships and trends in the variables of interest, and contains some projections based on existing literature.
