Leland Werden: Uncertainty and predictability in forest restoration.

Forests have been extensively degraded worldwide and recent initiatives have set ambitious targets to reforest millions of hectares over the next decade. To ensure these initiatives are effective, continued effort must be made to integrate ecological theory into restoration practice. In this talk I will give examples from tropical wet and dry forest restorations in Costa Rica that demonstrate how restoration effectiveness can be improved by further integrating theory into practice.
