Reliable and up- to-date information on the state of forest resources - not only on area and area change, but also on such variables as growing stock, wood and non-wood products, carbon, protected areas, use of forests for recreation and other services, biological diversity and forests’ contribution to national economies - is crucial to support decision-making for policies and programmes in forestry and sustainable development at all levels. FAO, at the request of its member countries, regularly monitors the world’s forests and their management and uses through the Forest Resources Assessment Programme. This country report forms part of the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2005 (FRA 2005), which is the most comprehensive assessment to date. More than 800 people have been involved, including 172 national correspondents and their colleagues, an Advisory Group, international experts, FAO staff, consultants and volunteers. Information has been collated from 229 countries and territories for three points in time: 1990, 2000 and 2005. The reporting framework for FRA 2005 is based on the thematic elements of sustainable forest management acknowledged in intergovernmental forest-related fora and includes more than 40 variables related to the extent, condition, uses and values of forest resources.

    REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS (RFQ)/REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) FOR A CREEK AND WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN Addendum No. 1 April 18, 2019 Due Date: Tuesday, April 23, 2019 at 3:00 P.M. (no change) Response to Questions: 1. Question: The RFP asks us to provide a copy of a similar plan. Does this need to be a hard copy, or is PDF acceptable? Answer: A pdf is acceptable. 2. Question: Would it be possible to get a copy of the City’s existing creeks inventory? I don’t believe it’s available online. Answer: The City does not have a comprehensive Creeks inventory and expects that work to be a substantial element of this project. An overview of City creeks can be found in General Plan Background Report Number 24: Hydrology and Water Quality (2004) (Attachment 1). One previous comprehensive creek assessment was done as part of the Draft San Jose Creek Watershed Plan (2003) (Attachment 2). 3. Question: Is the City looking for a planning consultant or an engineering consultant? There seem to be several tasks that would be more suited toward an engineering consultant. Answer: There is overlap between planning and engineering, but the goal is that this will be a Planning document. Technical staff members will assist with the development of Creek Inventory and Background Information and will provide guidance for Management Approach development. Addendum No. 1 RFQ/RFP for a Creek and Watershed Management Plan Page 2 of 2 4. Question: Is the City also planning to prepare a storm drain master plan as a separate document and through a separate RFP? It seems like there would be some overlapping effort between the two documents that an engineering consultant would be better suited for.

MORTENSON Department of Biology, Chapman College Orange, California 92661 This investigation stresses the analysis of leaf anatomy in relation to factors of ecology in selected species of the genus Cercocarpus HBK. of the family Rosaceae. Members of this genus are generally shrubs or small trees native to arid portions of the western United States, British Columbia and northern Mexico. Species of Cercocarpus am ideally suited to comparative studies in ecologi­ cal anatomy for the following reasons. First, comparisons of different species with respect to the adaptation problem is especially meaningful within a closely related group, e.g., a species or genus ( Keller, 1925). Secondly, members of this genus occupy a broad range of habitats from xeric to more mesic ones, and possess anatomical modes that can be related to various ecological conditions. Thus, anatomical characteristics often serve as reliable indicators in the study and understanding of physiological processes and ecological adaptations of living organisms.
