Every year, forest fires and severe storms cause a great deal of damage to forests in the northwestern United States. One way of dealing with the aftermath of these disasters is called salvage logging, which is the practice of removing dead trees from affected areas and using the wood for lumber, plywood, and other wood products. There are several reasons why salvage logging is beneficial both to a damaged forest and to the economy.

First, after a devastating fire, forests are choked with dead trees. If the trees are not removed, they will take years to decompose; in the meantime, no new trees can grow in the cramped spaces. Salvage logging, however, removes the remains of dead trees and makes room for fresh growth immediately, which is likely to help forest areas recover from the disaster.

Also, dead trees do more than just take up space. Decaying wood is a highly suitable habitat for insects such as the spruce bark beetle, which in large numbers can damage live, healthy spruce trees. So by removing rotting wood, salvage logging helps minimize the dangers of insect infestation, thus contributing to the health of the forest.

Third and last, salvage logging has economic benefits. Many industries depend upon the forests for their production, and because of this a fire can have a very harmful effect on the economy. Often, however, the trees that have been damaged by natural disasters still can provide much wood that is usable by industries. Furthermore, salvage logging requires more workers than traditional logging operations do, and so it helps create additional jobs for local residents.

we know that one way of dealing with the aftermath of forest fires or severe storms is called salvage logging, which is the practice of removing dead trees from affected areas and using the wood. according to lecture at first, removing the trees is not neccessery immediately after forest fires because this work make the soil lack of nutrient while for growing the trees, the rich soil is very important. second, that will be good using the bird or animals from remained wood. nevertheless these expresses from passage that say removing the remains of dead trees and makeing room for fresh growth immediately is not completely true. third and last, many industies depend upon the forest for thier production and of this a fire can have a very harmful effect on the economy. however the trees have been damaged by natural disaster still can provide some material that are need in industry and those wood will be useful so

almost, salvage logging has economic benefits but not completely.
