The first finalized report from the Futures project is now available: "The Southern Forest Futures Project: using public input to define the issues." We offered an advance copy here for the past year, now it's been published as an issue in the Southern Research Station General Technical Report series:

Wear, D.N.; Greis, J.G.; Walters, N. 2009. The Southern Forest Futures Project: using public input to define the issues. Gen. Tech. Rep. SRS-115. Asheville, NC: U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, Southern Research Station. 17 p.

The Southern Forest Futures Project will produce a number of other intermediate products including online resources and datasets and methods descriptions.

The Project's principal product will be a report that presents the findings of the Forecasting and Sub-regional Teams. This final report will only be released after its methods and findings have passed scientific peer review. The draft report that addresses those reviewer comments will be made available for public review and comment. The final report will address concerns raised there. As with its predecessor, the Southern Forest Resource Assessment, both the draft and final reports will be made available here.
