Talk:List of types of formally designated forests

Input welcome!
Turns out there are all kinds of formally designated types of forests! Input welcome! DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 08:10, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

The following notes are snipped from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Forestry:



Research forests & forestry researchers
I've created a new Category:Research forests as a first step towards stronger coverage of Research forests. Category additions welcome! Anyone interested in starting a new article on the topic? DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 06:23, 28 April 2012 (UTC)...

Now I'm wondering, is there a need for Category:Demonstration forests? There seem to be quite a few of Wikipedia articles on them, too. Is there a clear distinction between research and demonstration forests? I would guess that the latter are more for 'trying things out' and for forestry education, while the former include forests that are left in a more or less natural state for research purposes. Input, suggestions most welcome! DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 13:35, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
 * And one more variation: Experimental forest. Should these be lumped together? Or are there important distinctions? Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 03:54, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
 * And another: Teaching forest. Same (or similar) to Demonstration forest? DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 05:55, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
 * And yet another! Once you start looking... Model forest. This one seems similar to Demonstration forest and is a formal definition used by the FAO... Hmmm... DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 06:30, 29 April 2012 (UTC)...

Further comments and suggestions here regarding the distinction and relation between different types of formally designated forests, most welcome! DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 13:54, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
