Climate related forest health problems linked to warmer and drier conditions have been well documented in Alaska. As a result, many species of trees have been in decline or under attack by various biological and non-biological agents. As a result of concerns about the future of Alaska’s forests, the State Department of Forestry has been allocated state and federal funding to address some of these issues.
