Abstract:
One of the elementary conditions for a successful incorporation of forest ecosystems into the socio-economic system, which also enables to determine the effectiveness of expenditure on environment conservation, is to define their value with possible subsequent valuation. The issue closely relates to the actual assessment of forest services to the public with respect to the non-wood-<br />producing functions of the forest. A methodology was worked out for the assessment of forest services to the public with respect to the non-wood-producing functions of the forest, which makes it possible

Abstract:
Commercial use of Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFP) in a sustainable manner is becoming an increasingly popular mechanism for promoting the dual objectives of rural economic development coupled with environment or biodiversity conservation. Rajasthan is known for its harsh climatic conditions but this region has a rich bio-diversity. There are several plants available which are used for different purposes. The desert plants not only provide day to day need of fodder, fuel and food to the local inhabitants but also have potential to be explored commercially as Tennin, Dye, Fiber, Oil, etc. In t

Abstract:
Modern plantation forest procedures still rely heavily on manual data acquisition in the inventory process, limiting the quantity and quality of the collected data. This limitation in collection performance is often due to the difficulty of traversing the plantation forest environment on foot. This work presents an autonomous system for exploring plantation forest environments using multi-rotor UAVs. The proposed method consists of three parts: waypoint selection, trajectory generation, and trajectory following. Waypoint selection is accomplished by estimating the rows’ locations within the en

Abstract:
The article proposes a method for quantitative assessment of the degree of conservation of the forest environment in clear felling during the operation of multi-operational machines, which uses a generalized mathematical model of schemes for the development of felling areas with strips parallel and perpendicular to the logging mustache. The relevance of further research for non-clear felling in the direction of predicting the damage of a part of undergrowth and trees left for growing between technological corridors or trails is indicated.

Abstract:
The current European Union’s and state agricultural support is more focused on the modernization of farms in technological terms, coupled with the intensification of production, and weakly focused on the farm exclusivity and diversification. This creates a minor motivation for farmers to address the issues related to climate change mitigation. The main attention in the article is concentrated on two themes: climate change and forest management. The main research methods were used: analysis and generalization of scientific literature, interview, logical and systematically reasoning, comparison,

Abstract:
Given their low cost and non-invasive nature, ElectroCardioGram (ECG) signals have been widely used as a useful tool for diagnosing heart diseases. However, acquisition issues such as electrode interchange and oscillation noise may negatively impact expert exam interpretation and even automatic classification tasks. Here we propose an automated machine learning method to efficiently classify the 12-lead ECG signal acquisition quality. It consists of a two-stage classification process. Firstly, the ECG signals are processed and segmented aiming to classify them as noisy or acceptable signals. T

Abstract:
Sweden’s Environmental Quality Objectives (EQOs) have been adopted to help describe the environment the country wishes to achieve, and are a promise to future generations of clean air, a healthy living environment, and rich opportunities to enjoy nature. Here, we assessed selected socio-economic indicators adapted from the Montréal Process for the Conservation and Sustainable Management of Temperate and Boreal Forests (MP) to examine trends in the Swedish forest sector of direct relevance to the EQOs. We did this with the aim of raising awareness about important socio-economic dimensions relat

Abstract:
This study analyzes present-day and historical demographic, socioeconomic, and cultural changes in traditional native groups and in their environment, which have led to a growing loss of ethnic and ecological diversity in the main tropical rainforests of Latin America. The study summarizes actions by external agents that have led to rapid deforestation in recent years and to restrictions on access to forest resources which often lead to confrontation with the affected indigenous communities. In addition, the idea that non-sustainable uses of tropical forests should be determined on a case-to-c

Abstract:
This study investigates the economic and environmental implications of converting Cambodia’s natural forests into alternative land uses. Using a Total Economic Value (TEV) framework and a value flow model, the research assesses direct and indirect benefits of evergreen, semi-evergreen, and deciduous forests, including non-timber forest products (NTFPs), sustainable timber harvesting, carbon sequestration, and watershed protection. Household surveys across four provinces reveal that forest resources contribute significantly to rural livelihoods, especially among poorer households. The study eva

Abstract:
The goal of this paper is to introduce FABLE (Forest, Agriculture, and Biofuels in a Land use model with Environmental services), a dynamic global model, aimed at analyzing the optimal profile for global land use in the context of growing commercial demands for food and forest products, increasing non-market demands for ecosystem services, and more stringent greenhouse gas mitigation targets. The model seeks to determine the optimal allocation of scarce land across competing uses across time.

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is responsible for stewardship of approximately 12.5 million acres across the United States. USACE’s Environmental Stewardship program mission is to protect, preserve, and restore significant ecological resources on USACE project lands. Since the early 2000s, non-native and invasive Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) has killed hundreds of millions of ash trees in the US, becoming the most destructive and costly invasive forest insect in North America. This research effort estimates the cost of managing EAB damage to USACE projects including treatment, removal, or r
