<span style="font-size:13.0pt; color:black">The largest aboveground live tree carbon stocks in the conterminous United States are found in the old-growth forests of the Pacific Northwest. National forests in this area are managed under the Northwest Forest
 Plan (NWFP), a landmark ecosystem-based approach for balancing old-growth forest conservation with human uses. The NWFP established a broadscale network of large reserves with the goal of maintaining existing old forests, and regrowing young forests within
 them. The long-term objective was to create a functioning, well-connected old-growth forest system on public lands throughout the range of the northern spotted owl. The Plan appeared to be working for the first quarter-century (1993–2017); however, ongoing
 monitoring alerted the federal forest management agencies that increasing frequency and extent of large forest wildfires has recently resulted in a net loss of old forest within the reserve system. Today, the amount of old forest within the reserve network
 is lower than when the NWFP was designed and implemented.  </span><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; color:black"></span></p>

<span style="font-size:13.0pt; color:black">Monitoring leads to adaptive management and adaptive management leads to plan revisions when the data indicates plan objectives are not being met. The NWFP reserve’s “maintenance and restoration” goal is no longer
 being achieved, and the declining trend of old forests (and carbon) within them is expected to continue, owing to climate change. Part of the problem is that some reserves were originally delineated in landscapes that are prone (and becoming more prone) to
 high-severity wildfires. To date, most of the focus has been on where wildfires are occurring and ways to manage forests to make them more resilient to future fires. There is a data gap and lack of management focus on where wildfires normally

 find the “best” locations (fire refugia) for maintaining and restoring old forests into an uncertain future during a period of rapid climate change and increasing forest fires. </span><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; color:black"></span></p>
