Abstract
Resource managers need a means of identifying practical management units when working with large landscapes; a method that identifies vegetation-environment relationships based on soils, topography, productivity, and microclimate. This perspective is useful because topography, soils, and microclimate vary across landscapes, with vegetation and productivity responding to this spatial variability. With a map that subdivides large landscapes into units that have similar management needs and will likely respond similarly to treatment, managers can tailor specific treatments to specific parts of the landscape.
