Who We Are
WAA was initiated by aspen scientists at Utah State University and the US Forest Service who saw a need for disseminating current research to managers and gaining feedback on appropriate research areas from the field. We have grown to include researchers, managers, land owners, conservationists, and other practitioners from around the western U.S. and Canada.
