Abstract:
The XXV World Congress of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO) was held in Curitiba (Brazil) from September 25 to October 5, 2019. Representatives (2725 people) of forest academic, university and sector science, forestry business, and forestry governmental and non-governmental organizations from 96 countries attended the Congress and made over 2600 reports and presentations. For the first ever time this Congress was held in South America. The Congress motto “Forest Research and Cooperation for Sustainable Development” highlighted the broad subject of the Congress and showed the results of the five major directions of the IUFRO Strategy 2015–2019. The work of the Congress began with general events, including Tree Planting Ceremony, Congress Opening Ceremony, and Welcome Reception for all participants. Plenary Sessions, Technical Sessions, Thematic Discussions, Lectures and Presentations, and Poster Sessions were held according to the Official Program. Professional Excursions, namely Technical Tours and Thematic Exhibitions of products, technologies and services needed and available for the forest sector and forest research were provided. During the Congress, numerous IUFRO awards were delivered to the laureates, including the IUFRO Scientific Achievement Award, Distinguished Service Award, IUFRO Best Poster Award, as well as awards for students. Among the most important decisions of the XXV IUFRO World Congress are the following: Stockholm was selected as the next venue for the XXVI IUFRO World Congress in 2024; Dr. John Parrotta (USA) was elected President of IUFRO (2019– 2024); Professor Daniela Kleinschmit (Germany) and Professor Shirong Liu (China) were elected IUFRO Vice Presidents. The representative of our country Olga Shaitarova from the Saint-Petersburg State Forest Technical University named after S.M. Kirov became a member of the Board. Only eight participants from our country attended the Congress that confirms the insufficient level of financing of forest science in our country. Nevertheless, there is undoubtedly a significant prospect for the participation of Russian scientists in subsequent congresses and the activity within the IUFRO framework in general.

Abstract:
Innovative developments can be encouraged, increased in number and become more widespread by means of awards and honours and the associated financial support these bring. Taking the example of Bucheggberg (in Canton Solothurn, Switzerland), the article demonstrates how innovations arose through cooperation between practice and research, and how the presentation of the Binding Forest Award led to the realization of the innovative approach on site. It follows the further development and how transfer to other enterprises was favoured. Specifically the article describes the adaptation of the fragmented forest management to the requirements of the economy. To this end it was necessary to introduce modern information technology in the management of wood depots (Ifis Polver) and joint timber commercialisation (Ifis Uno).

Abstract:
In the United States, “seed fund” programs in biomedical fields have been reported to enhance faculty success in securing federal awards. Seed funds are relatively small internal grants that are allocated by universities to their faculty to invigorate research, in anticipation that they will lead to larger benefits—these benefits could be the creation of stronger teams that lead to larger external grants and/or more impactful publications. We hypothesized that a seed funding approach for research on natural resources and agricultural systems, including forest systems, may have similar benefits. Here, we report that seed funding supported faculty development in numerous ways, including leveraging to generate external competitive awards. For each dollar of institutional investment in each of the three seed funding programs, faculty acquired $6, >$50, and $4.50, respectively, in external funding that was leveraged within three years of the seed fund award date. Notably, the majority of the leveraged funding was from federal granting agencies through competitive programs. Federal competitive awards are important elements of tenure and promotion dossiers, as they reflect success in acquiring grants that are difficult to obtain, thus providing evidence of research excellence. We speculate that the seed fund proposal review process prepared faculty for competitive awards. Finally, we suggest best management practices for the implementation of seed funding to support teams of faculty.

Abstract:
For the fi rst time, we publish an unknown review written by Aleksandr Nikitenko, a member of Imperial Academy of Sciences, of the comedy by Alexander Ostrovsky «The Forest». This review was compiled on behalf of the commission that distributed Aleksey Uvarov’s awards for the playwrights after Alexander Ostrovsky submitted his play to the competition. Review by Aleksandr Nikitenko was read at a meeting of the commission; its copy has been discovered in his personal archive. Alexander Ostrovsky participated in the competition for Aleksey Uvarov’s award for more than 15 years, but he achieved success only twice: with his «The Storm» in 1860 and with the drama «Sin and Sorrow Are Common to All» in 1863. Aleksandr Nikitenko, himself a member of the academic commission, for several years was reviewing all the works that competed for the prize, and almost always gave negative conclusions about them. He reacted sharply negatively to «The Forest» as well. In the article, Aleksandr Nikitenko’s review is considered in the context of literary, critical and theatrical criticism of the comedy by Alexander Ostrovsky, which were released shortly after its publication and production. The publication was prepared on the basis of archival documents found in St. Petersburg department of the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Manuscript Department of the Institute of Russian Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences

Abstract:
While earlier studies have focused excessively on bankruptcy prediction of banks, this study classifies banks based on their financial strength from the perspective of retail depositors who currently do not have an authentic guiding framework that helps them identify banks with higher risk profiles. Using machine learning techniques, we classify 44 Indian banks into distinct categories of financial health based on 12-year data from 2005 to 2017. We first use unsupervised learning to identify a pattern leading to logical groups in terms of financial health and then move to supervised learning for prediction. Using linear discriminant analysis (LDA), Classification and Regression Tree (CART) and Random Forest methods, we predict the cluster membership with the associated explanatory power alongside. We also compare our classification with the credit ratings awarded by rating agencies and highlight certain discrepancies that exist between what is predicted by our models and the credit rating awards.

Abstract:
Whether justified or not foresters are being criticized for inadequate and inappropriate forest management strategies. To address these criticisms and foster strong political and economic support for forestry a process called Teleforestry has been developed by a working party of the International Union of Societies of Foresters.In recognizing the tremendous impact that the television medium has on public opinion and for technology transfer, Teleforestry was designed as a dual process for developing television awareness among foresters and forestry awareness among television broadcasters.This article gives a brief introduction to the television news medium and some guidelines on how foresters can gain access to it and use it effectively. The potential of other aspects of television is discussed including drama, documentary drama and educational television. A plan for a World Teleforestry Conference, as a major media event, is outlined, including video teleconferencing, production of a forestry documentary, a forestry television awards festival, and supporting promotions and publications.

Abstract:
Shaolin Peng contributed immensely to restoration ecology research in last 40- years and has published 700 papers. He has made innovative and theoretical breakthroughs in vegetation restoration, ecological restoration of invaded ecosystems, interaction between ecological restoration and global change, etc. One of his key achievements is vegetation restoration in subtropical South China. He has developed new models of vegetation in natural succession, replacement and fluctuation, advanced theory and proved that extremely degraded tropical forests can be restored. He established that allelopathy is one of the driving forces of forest succession and did related studies on systematic sampling and analysis of several forest communities from south to north in China. He has done outstanding research on invasive plants and examined the Novel Weapon Hypothesis (allelopathic inhibition) of invasive alien plants in South China and determined the various aspects of invasive mechanism of alien plants (molecular mechanism of elevated temperature and CO effects in allelopathy of invasive plants). He put forward the ‘Allelopathic resistance hypothesis (native plants resistance to invasive plants)’ and ‘ecological control theory’. In recognition of his contributions to <i>Allelopathy</i> field, he was awarded the <i>Outstanding Achievement Award</i> by the International Allelopathy Foundation. He also did in-depth studies on ecological impacts of invasive plants, specifically focusing on plant-soil feedback and plant-AMF symbiosis. Besides, Peng has mentored 68 Ph.D. and 38 M.Sc graduates, and was recognized as Prominent Teacher by Sun Yat-sen University. He has been the Vice President, Ecological Society of China, Vice Chairman, Nature Conservation and Eco-Environment Teaching Steering Committee, Ministry of Education, Member, Academic Degree Commission of State Council, Awarded ‘Top Ten Outstanding Youth in China’, Young Scientist Award, Chinese Academy of Sciences and National Outstanding Scientific and Technical Worker of China.

Abstract:
Sylvicultural concepts regarding a permanent forest stand (permanent forest, selection forest, mountain selection forest) are becoming increasingly important. From an economic point of view these concepts are interesting since the organic production is extensive work with a high portion of growing quality wood. Motivated by the Binding Forest Award 2007, given to the community of Sumiswald and regarding the subject “success in the natural production forest”, the methods, success factors and the difficulties with the selection in the private forest of the Emmental are described. It shows that despite the frequent lack of basic site and stand specific information, a transition of the forest stands towards selection forests is possible if the forest owners, supported by experts and the local forest service, are consequently striving for this goal.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis focus on memory-aware algorithms tailored for hierarchical memory architectures, found for instance within multicore processors. We first study the matrix product on multicore architectures. We model such a processor, and derive lower bounds on the communication volume. We introduce three ad hoc algorithms, and experimentally assess their performance.We then target a more complex operation: the QR factorization of tall matrices. We revisit existing algorithms to better exploit the parallelism of multicore processors. We thus study the critical paths of many algorithms, prove some of them to be asymptotically optimal, and assess their performance.In the next study, we focus on scheduling streaming applications onto a heterogeneous multicore platform, the QS 22. We introduce a model of the platform and use steady-state scheduling techniques so as to maximize the throughput. We present a mixed integer programming approach that computes an optimal solution, and propose simpler heuristics. We then focus on minimizing the amount of required memory for tree-shaped workflows, and target a classical two-level memory system. I/O represent transfers from a memory to the other. We propose a new exact algorithm, and show that there exist trees where postorder traversals are arbitrarily bad. We then study the problem of minimizing the I/O volume for a given memory, show that it is NP-hard, and provide a set of heuristics.Finally, we compare archival policies for BLUE WATERS. We introduce two archival policies and adapt the well known RAIT strategy. We provide a model of the tape storage platform, and use it to assess the performance of the three policies through simulation.

Abstract:
3D printing applications have achieved increased success as an additive manufacturing (AM) process. Micro-structure of mechanical/biological materials present design challenges owing to the resolution of 3D printers and material properties/composition. Biological materials are complex in structure and composition. Efforts have been made by 3D printer manufacturers to provide materials with varying physical, mechanical and chemical properties, to handle simple to complex applications. As 3D printing is finding more medical applications, we expect future uses in areas such as hip replacement - where smoothness of the femoral head is important to reduce friction that can cause a lot of pain to a patient. The issue of print resolution plays a vital role due to staircase effect. In some practical applications where 3D printing is intended to produce replacement parts with joints with movable parts, low resolution printing results in fused joints when the joint clearance is intended to be very small. Various 3D printers are capable of print resolutions of up to 600dpi (dots per inch) as quoted in their datasheets. Although the above quoted level of detail can satisfy the micro-structure needs of a large set of biological/mechanical models under investigation, it is important to include the ability of a 3D slicing application to check that the printer can properly produce the feature with the smallest detail in a model. A way to perform this check would be the physical measurement of printed parts and comparison to expected results. Our work includes a method for using ray casting to detect features in the 3D CAD models whose sizes are below the minimum allowed by the printer resolution. The resolution validation method is tested using a few simple and complex 3D models. Our proposed method serves two purposes: (a) to assist CAD model designers in developing models whose printability is assured. This is achieved by warning or preventing the designer when they are about to perform shape operations that will lead to regions/features with sizes lower than that of the printer resolution; (b) to validate slicing outputs before generation of G-Codes to identify regions/features with sizes lower than the printer resolution.

When more and more awarded funds are produced, investors do not know how to choose the targets matter of the investment. Thus, this study is according to awarded funds and to explore the performance of the awarded funds between various fund awards whether there are differences. This study is based on the TFF-Bloomberg Best Fund Awards, Lipper Taiwan Fund Awards, Morningstar Fund Awards and Smart Taiwan Fund Awards as the research object, and the 2009 – 2012 awarded funds as a sample. The results indicate that the short-term performance of awarded funds is better in Lipper Taiwan Fund Awards. While the medium and long-term performance is no significant difference. It also indicates that the short-term performance of awarded funds is better, and the different fund awards will affect the performance of the awarded funds.

The purpose of this study was to assess the public attitudes toward plain forest values and Plain Afforestation Award policy. The study area was located in Ao-gu wetland forest park. The questionnaires were designed and used on-site surveys to survey visitors. The results showed that the visitors tend to pay attention to the social and environment dimensions of plain forest values, and they also approve of the policy content and targets, especially in‘carbon reduction’and‘maintenance of biodiversity’. As for the afforestation areas, they preferred the agricultural region which was abandoned in current status and needed restoration. Whereas, the general and specific agricultural areas showed lower scores in this study, suggesting that argricultural production should be taken into consideration in these areas. Moreover, the agreement of policy content is influenced by the social and environmental dimensions of plain forest values. As for socio-demographic variables, this study found that age, monthly income and marriage influence the tendency to plain forest values and the opinion of Plain Forestry Award policy. It showed that the elders, high-income earns and married people concern about the social and environmental dimensions of plain forest values; and they also agree with the Plain Afforestation Award policy. In addition to these 3 socio-demographic variables as mentioned above, gender also affects the public attitude toward the policy targets. In general, that the male, elders, high-income earns and married people might approve of some policy targets. This study focuses on the public in Ao-gu wetland forest park, whose attitude toward plain forest values, afforestation area and Plain Forestry Award policy in the present status in order to provide the government information for afforestation policy implementation.

Agricultural, Forestry, Fishery and Husbandry Census (AFFHC) which has been held every 5 years since being established in 1956 is one of the important Basic National Census and Survey. Forestry Census has been conducted separately from other census which has been carried out at the same time since 1990. In 2005, the government drew up a 250- million NT budget for AFFHC; this shows the importance that the Government has placed on the census. However, an investigation of Taiwan forestry policy research found out only a few scholars use the database of Forestry census for further research and analysis. Therefore this study using the database of Forestry census in 2005 on more than 60,000 forest owners use logistic regression, and more than three hundred rural use regression, research on the factors that Taiwan’s forest owner or town participating afforestation award. Based on forest owner as units of results show that factors that are in favor of forest owner participate in afforestation award: elders, high education level, an aboriginal village, self-run agriculture and husbandry, lower salary level, sufficient labors, woodland area, higher private woodland area proportion , lower bamboo area ratio, and lower other forestry income. As village in units of results, factors that in favor of participate in afforestation award: higher male ratio, an aboriginal village, northern region with higher urbanization, middle or southern region with lower urbanization, sufficient labors, higher woodland area size,higher private woodland area ratio, lower bamboo area ratio, and lower others forestry income. As a whole, the two statistic methods show consistencies; this result shows that the research of same data will not be different by the statistic methods.

Abstract:
AbstractThe effect of climate change on agricultural-dependent communities is immense. Ethiopia in which more than 85% of its population is agrarian is affected by climate change. Communities in different parts of the country perceived climate change and practice different climate change adaptation strategies. This chapter was initiated to identify adaptation strategy to the impact of changing climate. Data on a total of 180 households were gathered using structured and semi-structured questioners. Focus group discussion and key informant interview were also used for data collection. Climatic data from the nearest meteorological stations of the area were collected and used in this chapter. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. The upshot indicated that all the respondent communities experienced at least one of autonomous/self-adaptation strategies to cope and live with the impacts of changing climate. Though 33.6% complained on its accessibility and pricing, 66.4% of the respondents reviled as they do not have any awareness on improved agricultural technologies. The major adaptation strategies identified were collecting and using of edible wild plants and other forest products, hunting, renting/selling of own farm lands, livestock sell, selling of household materials/assets, collecting and selling of wood and wood products and depending on well-off relatives, using drought-resistant crop variety, changing cropping calendar, replanting/sowing, and increasing farmland size. Nevertheless, the communities are not yet fully aware and accessed to policy-driven options for climate change adaptation. Although they used different autonomous adaptation mechanisms, the households are not resilient to the current and perceived climate change. Finally, based on the findings, the recommendation is that besides encouraging the existing community-based adaptation strategies planned adaptation strategies have to be implemented: such as early-warning and preparedness programs have to be effectively implemented in the area, introduction of different drought-resistant locally adapted food crop varieties, and expansion of large-scale investment in the area has to be checked, and give due recognition to forest ecosystem–based adaptation mechanisms of the local community in the area.

Abstract:
AbstractMajority of Kenya’s citizens reside in the rural areas where wood fuel is still the primary source of energy for cooking. Continuing reliance on wood fuel against the backdrop of burgeoning population poses huge threats to the country’s forest cover, undermining capacity for climate change mitigation and adaptation. This study conducted in Machakos and Laikipia counties explored; (i) women’s perceptions of the health risks associated with dependence of firewood for cooking, (ii) women’s attitudes and perceptions towards improved cooking charcoal stoves (ICS) as cleaner alternatives to traditional firewood stoves for cooking, and (iii) women’s perceptions of barriers to adoption of improved cooking stoves. Study findings revealed that women were aware of the health risks associated with the use of firewood for cooking. However, despite these perceptions, upward trends in demands for firewood as a source of energy for cooking in the rural areas may persist in the next coming decades. Barriers to adoption of improved cooking stoves vary by sociocultural contexts. The study concludes that innovations that involve stakeholders especially participatory designs, monitoring, and evaluation of ICS might improve adoption levels. Moreover, innovations to increase adoption need to leverage on the opportunities provided by Sustainable development goal number 7 to accelerate adoption of ICS among other forms of cleaner, affordable, and sustainable sources of energy for cooking.

Abstract:
<p>The Boomerang and Jungle pedestrian bridges form part of a new pedestrian and cycle path, passing from the centre of Oslo through an urban forest and over the Outer Ring Road. The main goal for the design team was to integrate the bridges’ architecture within the natural environment and to cause the minimum impact during the construction period. The 85m long Boomerang bridge, named after its shape in plan, crosses the ring road with a 22.5m span, whose traffic was maintained throughout the construction period. In total the bridge comprises of four spans, with a continuous steel box girder of asymmetric cross-section. The bridge and the railings are fabricated from Cor-ten weathering steel to avoid the need for painting and to minimise future maintenance. The Jungle Pedestrian bridge is a simple suspension bridge spanning 36m over a small river. The main structural elements are parabolic, locked coil cables, four at deck level and two at handrail level. The deck is formed from slip-resistant perforated steel panels, supported off a transversely stiff steel framing system. The design intent was to maximize the use of prefabricated lightweight elements to facilitate the bridge erection and minimize the impact on the natural environment. Due to the lightness of the bridge a detailed analysis of the accelerations due to pedestrian-induced vibrations was performed to assess the comfort level for bridge users. The project won in 2017 the Norwegian Steel Construction Award and was nominated for World Architecture News’ Best Bridge Award 2017.</p>

Abstract:
Forecasting the future plausible paths of pedestrians in crowd scenes is of wide applications, but it still remains as a challenging task due to the complexities and uncertainties of crowd motions. To address these issues, we propose to explore the inherent crowd dynamics via a social-aware recurrent Gaussian process model, which facilitates the path prediction by taking advantages of the interplay between the rich prior knowledge and motion uncertainties. Specifically, we derive a social-aware LSTM to explore the crowd dynamic, resulting in a hidden feature embedding the rich prior in massive data. Afterwards, we integrate the descriptor into deep Gaussian processes with motion uncertainties appropriately harnessed. Crowd motion forecasting is implemented by regressing relative motion against the current positions, yielding the predicted paths based on a functional object associated with a distribution. Extensive experiments on public datasets demonstrate that our method obtains the state-of-the-art performance in both structured and unstructured scenes by exploring the complex and uncertain motion patterns, even if the occlusion is serious or the observed trajectories are noisy.
