The role of c l~mate research as i t applies to the emerging area of monitonng and assessment of ecolog~cal status health and trends IS discussed Such applicat~ons requlre techniques that synthesize mult~ple, often interacting sources of climate-denved ecological stress These stresses operate across multiple plant and animal species and span a range of temporal and spatial hierarchical scales A working hypothesis of forest ecosystem/climate interactions 1s proposed The basis of the hypothesis is the definition of climatological persistence and disturbance characterist~cs of a region A climate database was assembled for the northeastern Unlted States Summaries that synthesize the spatial distribution, frequency, area and magnitude of climatological disturbance events are presented These summanes are specifically des~gned to facilitate the testing of the interaction hypothesis proposed in the present study Conclusions concerning climate stress 111 the area , as suggested by a 1961 to 1970 disturbance summary, are compared to results of recent research concerning declines In high elevation red spruce The present research IS the f~rs t step in the developinent of regional scale c l~mate disturbance/forest ecosystem relat~onships Future research will seek to l ~ n k operational observat~ons of forest status and behavior with these mul t~var~ate , climatolog~cal summanes
