Summary:Gerrard describes an explicit method by which alternative stand selection scenarios concerning the threatened marbled murrelet in the Headwaters Forest Habitat Conservation Plan were generated and evaluated. An integer programming model is applied to identify sets of redwood groves that optimized marbled murrelet nesting habitat value for given values of foregone timber production.
