Download or read book Forest Landscape Restoration written by John Stanturf and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restoration ecology, as a scientific discipline, developed from practitioners’ efforts to restore degraded land, with interest also coming from applied ecologists attracted by the potential for restoration projects to apply and/or test developing theories on ecosystem development. Since then, forest landscape restoration (FLR) has emerged as a practical approach to forest restoration particularly in developing countries, where an approach which is both large-scale and focuses on meeting human needs is required. Yet despite increased investigation into both the biological and social aspects of FLR, there has so far been little success in systematically integrating these two complementary strands. Bringing experts in landscape studies, natural resource management and forest restoration, together with those experienced in conflict management, environmental economics and urban studies, this book bridges that gap to define the nature and potential of FLR as a truly multidisciplinary approach to a global environmental problem. The book will provide a valuable reference to graduate students and researchers interested in ecological restoration, forest ecology and management, as well as to professionals in environmental restoration, natural resource management, conservation, and environmental policy.

Download or read book Economic Analysis of Several Alternatives of Forest Management for Pinus Hartwegii written by Juan Manuel Torres Rojo and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the Mexican system of forest management is based on the "Unidades Industriales de Explotacion Forestal" (UIEF). An economic analysis based on the profitability of the forest under different alternatives was performed to evaluate the efficiency of the UIEF's system of forest management using Pinus hartwegii growing in the Zoquiapan forest as a model forest. The economic analysis was performed by comparing Present Net Worth (PNW) of the optimal harvest schedules at several rotation ages for different alternatives of forest management and simulating different market situations. A whole-stand growth and yield model for Pinus hartwegii was developed using the model developed by Clutter (1963). The final model computes diameter distributions by estimating values for the three parameter Weibull distribution. Different criteria were tested to fit real data to the Weibull probability density function. A modified approach which uses different parameter estimators to fit Weibull parameters to stand characteristics was performed. The approach yielded excellent fits. A Dynamic programming algorithm was incorporated to the growth and yield model to compute optimal harvest schedules. The algorithm is mostly based on the Valsta (1986) algorithm. The Algorithm optimizes timing, intensity and type of thinning for different rotation ages. Results from economic analysis showed some disadvantages of both the T. JIEF system and some statements of the Mexican forest law.
Download or read book The Economic Value of Landscapes written by C. Martijn van der Heide and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-03 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to explore the avenue of landscape economics and provides the building blocks (from different scientific disciplines) for an economic analysis of landscapes. What exactly constitutes and determines the value of a landscape? It focuses on the value of landscapes in its broadest sense, thereby covering a variety of topics including stakeholder involvement in landscape design, landscape governance and landscape perceptions from different countries. Merely saying that landscapes have value or are important is not sufficient – not when resources are scarce and have alternative uses. Measuring and quantifying the economic value of changes in landscapes would help ensure that landscape management decisions are both (economically) rational and sound.
