Abstract:

This paper is a summary of an assessment of the forest community's progress toward meeting its commitment to the Canadian Biodiversity Strategy of maintaining the extent, diversity and health of a large portion of the world's temperate and boreal forests. The past decade's success with current sustainable forest management programs has been important in achieving Canada's custodial responsibilities. So, too, is our enviable position of a high degree of public ownership of forests, the wilderness nature of most northern forests and limited development that has largely retained forests in their

Abstract:

The unique Walnut Fruit Forests in Kyrgyzstan are a good example of the multifunctional use of forests in temperate zones. Not only are non-timber forest products (NTFPs) collected but the land in and around the forests is used for grazing and haymaking, as well as for arable cropping and the establishment of fruit orchards. Apart from sustaining the lives of the local mountain people, the Walnut Fruit Forests are extremely rich in biodiversity and have an important function as a watershed for the Ferghana valley.

Abstract:

Is consumption of forest products sustainable over the long term? The article presents trends and an outlook for the forest sector, for Europe and Switzerland, from 1913 to 2030. The first half of the twentieth century saw over-use of European forests, but in the second half, the situation changed: consumption of forest products increased, while forests expanded, growing stock rose and Europe became a net exporter of timber. Official scenarios foresee a continuation of these trends in the twenty-first century. Yet, to this end, the forest sector must stay competitive. For example, mobilising e

Forest management generally simplifies forest structure and composition with some negative impacts in terms of biodiversity and resilience. Thus, maintaining structural complexity is increasingly cited as an objective of sustainable forest management.

Abstract:

Forests and other wooded land cover about 1000 million ha in Europe and thus represent a very characteristic element of the natural landscape. Multi-disciplinary research into the role of the social and cultural aspects of sustainable forest management is growing in importance, in particular with regard to the overall goal of sustainable development and the role of traditional forest-related knowledge. The need for such research was manifested in April 2003 by the adoption of the Vienna Declaration and Vienna Resolutions at the Fourth Ministerial Conference on the Protection of Forests in Euro

Abstract:

The conservation and protection of the world's forests has become a critical international environmental issue in recent years as the demand for forest products has increased significantly, and population growth and the rate of deforestation have reached perilous levels. These realities are challenging our stewardship of the resource.Strictly regarded in economic use terms for centuries, forests are increasingly being recognized for the social, cultural, spiritual and recreational values and benefits they furnish to humankind.

Abstract:

Systematic approach to implementation of activities for conservation, protection, reproduction and use of forests historically appeared in the Russian forestry science in the late XIX century – early XX century. In practice of forestry and forest management planning activities was traditionally carried out by separate types. This often leads to loss of effect, obtained at a certain stage of forest regeneration. In the eighties of the XX century methodological basis for creation of regional systems of forest management activities, and, for individual regions, practical recommendations for the u

Abstract. For multifunctional forests that seek to fulfil societal, environmental and economic demands, active forest management is key. However, like in many other western European countries, Switzerland's small-scale private forest owners increasingly do not manage their forests. By applying and adapting the Institutional Resource Regime (IRR), a framework for environmental policy analysis that considers use rights both from public policies and property rights, we analyse the situation in Switzerland. Subsequently, we propose a Swiss forest gift programme – based on the Canadian Ecological G

Abstract:

Market-based incentives for conservation in tropical and subtropical forests Millions of hectares of forests are lost every year in the tropics and subtropics as a result of land use changes and illegal logging. To address this situation, a number of market-based approaches were developed. The rationale is that tropical forests can only be maintained in the long term if economic returns of sustainable activities are equivalent to unsustainable forest uses. This article describes mechanisms such as income generation from forest products, payments for ecosystem services, compensation payments as

Abstract:

The temperate forest ecosystems of Australia and New Zealand have had a similar history of exploitation and destruction since European settlement. This differed markedly from the previous use of these forests by indigenous peoples. Australian Aborigines are considered to have used the forests on a sustainable basis. Fire was the primary management tool and probably had its greatest effect on floristic composition and structure. The Maori of New Zealand initially cleared substantial areas of forest, but by the time of European settlement they appear to have been approaching sustainable manageme

Salamanders have been identified as potential indicators of sustainable forest management in boreal Ontario, Canada. However, little information is available on their distribution, abundance, and habitat associations within the boreal forests on which to base a monitoring program. We surveyed salamanders near White River, Ontario, and related their distribution to climate and vegetation information and to habitat suitability models currently used for forest planning within the region. Primarily red-backed salamanders ( Plethodon cinereus Green) and blue-spotted salamanders ( Ambystoma laterale

Forests sustain the planet and provide air, soil, climate cycles. These ecosystem services enable economic sectors. Forests are under threat, last decade about 13 million of hectares of forests were deforested. A system to provide monitoring and prevention are needed to sustain the forest but only a few countries have implemented a smart forest system alike. By utilizing sensors, minimum wireless system and renewable energy will provide more accurate, real time, efficient energy and easy to maintain compare to the conventional conservation.

Abstract:

Intensive forest management practices for production forestry can potentially impact the sustainability of ecological functions and associated forest ecosystem services. Understanding the trade-offs between economic gains and ecological losses is critical for the sustainable management of forest resources. However, economic and ecological trade-offs are typically uncertain, vary at temporal and spatial scales, and are difficult to measure. Moreover, the methods used to quantify economic and ecological trade-offs might have conflicting priorities. We reviewed the most current published literatu

Abstract:

Around one third of the earth's surface is under forest cover which is distributed more or less equally between industrialised and developing countries. Whereas forest areas in the temperate and boreal climate zones are more or less stable or on the increase, the scale of deforestation and forest degradation in the tropics remains dramatic. This situation is likely to continue in the decades to come because the world's ever-growing population needs new agricultural land and the pressure on resources (forest products, land, water, minerals) continues to increase as a result of globalisation and
