Abstract:
The development of technology and the mechanization in the Swedish forestry has during the last 60 years resulted in depopulation of the country side and due to that the amount of distance forest owners has increased. Therefore the forest companies need to make some adjustments in order to keep the distance forest owners as customers and to attract new ones. The purpose of this essay was to examine and analyze the distance forest owners satisfaction with Södras service offering and quality of service and further develop some proposals for action.

Forest ecosystems provide valuable services to humanity but have been continually undervalued and degraded.

This study argues for the framework that integrates the ecosystem service approach to the assessment of FG regimes. Three alternative FG scenarios: state-based; community-based; and individual-based.

Although forests provide various ecosystem services that support human welfare, forest ecosystems have undergone continuous degradation. To mitigate forest loss from illegal logging, forest certification was launched in the early-1990s, and the interest in certification has been expanding in scope from timber to a range of ecosystem services for a complete approach to sustainable forest management. This thesis defines such a certification scheme as the certification of forest ecosystem services (CFES). In the first part, I propose a conceptual framework for CFES and argue that a key function

Doutoramento em Ciências Aplicadas ao Ambiente<br>Os incêndios florestais e a qualidade do ar em cenário de alteração climática constituem uma das maiores ameaças ao desenvolvimento sustentável. Nestes sentido, este trabalho pretende avaliar o impacte das alterações climáticas nos incêndios florestais e na qualidade do ar. A análise estatística de doze distritos Portugueses revelou que a meteorologia e as componentes do índice Canadiano de risco de incêndio são as variáveis que determinam os números dos incêndios florestais em Portugal. Neste âmbito, este trabalho pretendeu também carac

Abstract:
Mangrove forests provide a significant contribution to human well-being; particularly through climate change mitigation and adaptation (CCMA) due to disproportionately high carbon sequestration and coastal protection from tropical storms. However, mangrove community structure drivers of these ecosystem services (ES), rehabilitation potential for high CCMA ES delivery, and their resilience to climate change impacts remain poorly understood and monitored. This thesis uses field- and satellite remote sensing-based methods and a dual focus at a Philippines-specific and West Africa to South Asian-s
