While much is known about the growth and management of
a few species planted for timber production (e.g., Forrester et al.,
2010) and, to some extent, carbon sequestration (e.g., Kraenzel
et al., 2003), we are only now gaining a better understanding of
these products or “services” for a wide variety of native species (see
above). Much less, however, is known about a broad array of other
ecosystem services. Rodrigues et al. (2011) present a large scale
restoration program they have developed in Brazil over a 10 year
period with the goal of informing large scale ecological restoration
of high diversity forests
