Located on the Washburn Ranger District of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, the Moquah Barrens features pine barrens with jack and red pine, red oak, red maple, quaking aspen, large-toothed aspen, and white birch. The USFS set aside this area in the 1930's as a research site to study natural successions on sandy soils in the absence of fire.
Frequent fires historically maintained the "barrenness" of the barrens, but decades of fire suppression have led to the development of dense forest stands with woody vegetation.
The shrub layer is dominated by serviceberry, dewberry, sweet fern blueberry, hazel, honeysuckle, and sand cherry, making it a great habitat for diverse species of wildlife. This area provides the avid wildflower enthusiast with some of the best viewing opportunities in Northern Wisconsin.
The Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest manages this area and records vegetation changes over time. It was designated a State Natural Area in 1970 and is recognized as an established Research Natural Area.
In 2009, the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest completed a 22,000 acre management plan for the Moquah Barrens (Northwest Sands Restoration Project) outlining objectives for restoring the forest structure, plant and animal species composition, and fire regime to the landscape in support of the unique and globally imperiled pine barrens ecosystem. The restoration activities to accomplish these objectives include the use of prescribed burns, timber harvests, invasive species removal, native seed planting and ongoing monitoring.

Brianna McTeague examining southwestern white pine (Pinus strobiformis) seedlings for infection by white pine blister rust (from Cronartium ribicola pathogen). Dorena Genetic Resource Center, Cottage Grove, Oregon.
More from Richard Sniezko:
Seed was sown in 2014, inoculated with white pine blister rust fungus (Cronartium ribicoloa) spores in September 2015, and disease assessments started in 2016 – the trial will be assessed for 5 years post-inoculation to rate parent trees for genetic resistance based on their progeny. This trial was supported by a Special Technology Development grant from USFS FHP, and is a precursor to a range-wide (including populations from Mexico) evaluation of SWWP as part of a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project (in conjunction with Northern Arizona University and others).

Libo County, Guizhou Province. Rice fields and forest plantations integrated in the landscape provide food and timber resources while regulating water provision to an ancient agricultural irrigation system. In the background: Karst mountain formations typical of the landscape in Guizhou and Guangxi provinces in Southwest China. Due to their steepness and inaccessibility, karsts are natural repositories of native biodiversity.

View of deforestation around Lake Lagano area, 20 years ago migration, agricultural expansion and charcoal production cleared the forests in this area. The bigger trees are Acacia Tortilis (Vachellia tortilis) used for charcoal and animal fodder (goats and sheep eat its leaves). They can grow nearly anywhere in Ethiopia. In the valley, the main agricultural activities are sheep, cow and goat rearing and wheat production.
