| Abstract/Description or Keywords | The “Pacific Northwest” is a nebulous place: it denotes different geographies to different people. Broadly, it is that region within which the climate of the northeast Pacific Ocean laps onto the North American continent. Because we are concerned with the forests of the northwest coast of North America, the Pacific Northwest will be defined in this paper as the region occupied by the massive coniferous forest characteristic of this coast. By this definition, the region stretches from 61°N at Cook Inlet, Alaska, through 20° of latitude to Eureka, California (Fig. 1). |
