About the Minnesota Research Reader

The Minnesota Research Reader is an exciting collaboration between the Minnesota DNR and the USDA Forest Service. This periodic digest highlights research topics relevant to science and resource management in the State of Minnesota with the intention of promoting a strong culture of science in our agencies by making current research more available to busy land and resource managers. The 'Reader' is intended to provide a quick look at some of the emerging research relevant to our work in the State of Minnesota. The project team includes a diverse interdisciplinary advisory board that determines the content of the publication and works together to increase knowledge exchange across agencies and ownership boundaries. Each issue will typically be thematic, highlighting four articles and when possible, will spotlight priority projects and initiatives of each agency as a way to increase collaboration and knowledge exchange. The ‘Reader’ targets a quarterly distribution, however is flexible based on research content and the availability of our dedicated editorial review board.
