Download or read book Desenvolvimento sustent vel manejo florestal e o uso dos recursos madeireiros na Amaz nia written by A. L. L. de SOUZA and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O presente trabalho procurou contextualizar o manejo florestal em relação ao arcabouço teórico do desenvolvimento sustentável, identificar os vínculos entre essas duas concepções e avaliar suas possibilidades e limites quanto ao atendimento dos objetivos de promover a sustentabilidade econômica, ecológica e social e contribuir para o desenvolvimento sustentável do setor florestal. As informações foram obtidas através de entrevistas qualitativas com diversos atores sociais e com base nas pesquisas disponíveis sobre manejo florestal para a Amazônia, mais especificamente no município de Paragominas-PA. Partiu-se da hipótese de que o modelo de manejo florestal em florestas públicas de produção constitui-se numa via mais eficiente para gerar benefícios sociais, econômicos e ambientais do manejo florestal, contribuindo para melhorias na qualidade do desenvolvimento do setor florestal. Para verificação dessa hipótese foram realizadas análises comparativas envolvendo três modelos de uso dos recursos florestais: o manejo em florestas públicas de produção; o manejo em florestas privadas e a exploração seletiva tradicional. A análise comparativa qualitativa revelou a superioridade do manejo florestal em florestas públicas de produção em relação aos demais, quando se considerou os aspectos sociopolíticos, ecológicos e econômicos. O resultado da caracterização qualitativa envolvendo 23 relações entre esse modelo e os condicionantes identificados mostrou que 19 apresentaram relação positiva forte, duas foram positivas médias e duas foram negativas médias. Os principais problemas relacionados à não adoção do manejo florestal sustentável estão relacionados aos aspectos econômicos e sociopolíticos. A análise econômica financeira constatou que os modelos predatórios de uso dos recursos florestais apresentaram todos os índices econômicos considerados (valor presente líquido, taxa interna de retorno e relação benefício/custo) superiores aos modelos baseados no uso sustentável, devidos aos menores custos relativos aos modelos predatórios. As causas estão associadas principalmente ao descumprimento dos dispositivos legais, insegurança fundiária, abundância e baixo preço dos recursos florestais, apropriação privada dos recursos florestais e fiscalização e controle deficientes por parte das instituições públicas ambientais.

Download or read book The context of natural forest management and FSC certification in Brazil written by Claudia Romero and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2015-12-30 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Management decisions on appropriate practices and policies regarding tropical forests often need to be made in spite of innumerable uncertainties and complexities. Among the uncertainties are the lack of formalization of lessons learned regarding the impacts of previous programs and projects. Beyond the challenges of generating the proper information on these impacts, there are other difficulties that relate with how to socialize the information and knowledge gained so that change is transformational and enduring. The main complexities lie in understanding the interactions of social-ecological systems at different scales and how they varied through time in response to policy and other processes. This volume is part of a broad research effort to develop an independent evaluation of certification impacts with stakeholder input, which focuses on FSC certification of natural tropical forests. More specifically, the evaluation program aims at building the evidence base of the empirical biophysical, social, economic, and policy effects that FSC certification of natural forest has had in Brazil as well as in other tropical countries. The contents of this volume highlight the opportunities and constraints that those responsible for managing natural forests for timber production have experienced in their efforts to improve their practices in Brazil. As such, the goal of the studies in this volume is to serve as the foundation to design an impact evaluation framework of the impacts of FSC certification of natural forests in a participatory manner with interested parties, from institutions and organizations, to communities and individuals.

Download or read book Agroforestry and Biodiversity Conservation in Tropical Landscapes written by Götz Schroth and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agroforestry -- the practice of integrating trees and other large woody perennials on farms and throughout the agricultural landscape -- is increasingly recognized as a useful and promising strategy that diversifies production for greater social, economic, and environmental benefits. Agroforestry and BiodiversityConservation in Tropical Landscapes brings together 46 scientists and practitioners from 13 countries with decades of field experience in tropical regions to explore how agroforestry practices can help promote biodiversity conservation in human-dominated landscapes, to synthesize the current state of knowledge in the field, and to identify areas where further research is needed. Agroforestry and Biodiversity Conservation in Tropical Landscapes is the first comprehensive synthesis of the role of agroforestry systems in conserving biodiversity in tropical landscapes, and contains in-depth review chapters of most agroforestry systems, with examples from many different countries. It is a valuable source of information for scientists, researchers, professors, and students in the fields of conservation biology, resource management, tropical ecology, rural development, agroforestry, and agroecology.

Download or read book Lagoa Santa Karst Brazil s Iconic Karst Region written by Augusto S. Auler and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-22 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the Lagoa Santa Karst, which has been internationally known since the pioneering studies of the Danish naturalist Peter Lund in the early 1800s. It covers the speleogenesis, geology, vegetation, fauna, hydrogeology, geomorphology, and anthropogenic use of the Lagoa Santa Karst and is the first English-language book on this major karst area. The area, which has been at the heart of the debate on the origin and age of human colonization in the Americas, is characterized by a classical and scenic karst landscape with limestone cliffs, karst lakes and karst plains, in addition to numerous solution dolines. More than 1,000 caves have been documented in the area, many with significant archeological and paleontological value. Despite its great importance, the Lagoa Santa Karst faces severe environmental threats due to limestone mining and the expansion of the metropolis of Belo Horizonte and its surrounding towns. The growing recognition of the area’s remarkable significance has led to increasing concern, and a number of protected areas have now been established, improving the conservation status of this landmark karst area.
