• Research was conducted on a section of the Superior National Forest in Northern Minnesota to develop and examine potential methods or approaches that may be used to integrate nontimber resources in multiple-use planning. An indicator species for old-growth conifer forests, pine marten (Martes americana), was chosen to examine potential conflicts between specific forest management practices and suitable habitat. Spatial impacts of clearcutting and of deferred harvesting on marten habitat over a fifty year planning horizon were examined. Specific management scenarios were developed to examine the impact of deferred harvesting on marten habitat over time and space. Deferred clearcutting did not improve marten habitat conditions. Other management scenarios could be designed to improve marten habitat without sacrificing economic benefits.
