Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economics of Forestry: A Reference Book, for Students of Political Economy and Professional and Lay Students of Forestry IN this volume it is proposed to treat of for ests and forestry from the standpoint of political economy. The statesman, the student of economics, as well as the layman who desires knowledge on these matters, is to find here such information as will enable him to form an intelligent view and a true estimate of the position which forests and forestry should occupy in our political house hold, or rather the position which the community and governments should take with reference to their forest resources; it is to furnish a trust worthy basis for formulating public policy. At the same time it is hoped that this presentation of the subject will be acceptable to the growing number of professional foresters, assisting them in an intelligent survey of their art from a point of view outside of that of the technicist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economics of Forestry The book is chiefly devoted to a discussion of timber resources and the economics of cultivation. The economics of the transport and conversion of timber, a subject which is almost a clear field for inquiry, has been only lightly touched upon. Management and policy should not be governed solely by economic considerations. Nevertheless, to lay down a forest policy without first studying the total costs of producing timber and the prices that may be obtained for it is a reprehensible extravagance. The financial success of an industrial undertaking can only be judged when the process of production is completed; and, since the period between sowing and reaping in forestry is generally longer than the working life of a man, foresters escape the gruelling test of profit-making to which other cultivators are subjected. For this reason many foresters of established reputation have been able to show a disregard for the major considerations of economics that would have reduced them to bankruptcy in any other industry. Bearing this in mind I have attempted to present the economics of forestry in a form which may be useful in deciding questions of forest management and in determining forest policy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from North American Forests and Forestry: Their Relations to the National Life of the American People Odern civilization attains its height, and produces its blossoms and fruits, such as they are, for good and evil, in the artificial life of the great cities but its roots are sunk deeply into the soil prepared by nature herself. Millions of years before the first spark of intellectual life in a humanlike being made the beginning of a rude culture possible, that mysterious earth-life which throbs in the multitudinous surges of the ocean, the stormy atmosphere enveloping the crags of the Sierra, the torrid sunshine of the desert, the splashy brook of the meadow, and the soughing pines of the forest, had laid deeply and lovingly the founda tions without which there could have been none of the rich, full, invigorating activity of city life. Cut the threads which connect the humanity of New York and Chicago with the remotest solitude, and civilized life must wither and die.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and National Prosperity: A Reappraisal of the Forest Situation in the United States During 1945 and 1946 the Forest Service made a reappraisal of the forest situation in the United States. Its purpose was to bring up to date and amplify basic information on our timber resources, to interpret this information in relation to the national economy, and to reexamine national policies and needs ln forest conservation. Previous analyses of a similar nature were made m 1938 and qq32. Forests contribute to the welfare of the Nation 1n many way'.s They are invaluable ln the protection of watersheds; they afford recreation and sport for people ln all walks of life; they are the habitat of many forms of wildlife; they provide range forage for millions of livestock But this appraisal dealt mainly with the timber resource. Other aspects of the situation were considered primarily ln relation to timber use. The reappraisal has made use of the large amount of information available from the Forest Survey and other activities of the Forest Service, and from other agencies. Such information has been brought up to date, checked, and supplemented Much new resource information also was obtained to assure an authoritative summary of the quantity, quality, distribution, growth, and drain of the timber resources in the United States proper. Only incidental attention was given to the forests of Alaska and to the world timber situation. Estimates of potential requirements for forest products and of unavoidable losses through natural causes were supplemented by consideration of margins for new uses, export, and national security.

Download or read book Climate Change and United States Forests written by Peterson David L. and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a scientific assessment of the effects of climatic variability and change on forest resources in the United States. Derived from a report that provides technical input to the 2013 U.S. Global Change Research Program National Climate Assessment, the book serves as a framework for managing U.S. forest resources in the context of climate change. The authors focus on topics having the greatest potential to alter the structure and function of forest ecosystems, and therefore ecosystem services, by the end of the 21st century. Part I provides an environmental context for assessing the effects of climate change on forest resources, summarizing changes in environmental stressors, followed by state-of-science projections for future climatic conditions relevant to forest ecosystems. Part II offers a wide-ranging assessment of vulnerability of forest ecosystems and ecosystem services to climate change. The authors anticipate that altered disturbance regimes and stressors will have the biggest effects on forest ecosystems, causing long-term changes in forest conditions. Part III outlines responses to climate change, summarizing current status and trends in forest carbon, effects of carbon management, and carbon mitigation strategies. Adaptation strategies and a proposed framework for risk assessment, including case studies, provide a structured approach for projecting and responding to future changes in resource conditions and ecosystem services. Part IV describes how sustainable forest management, which guides activities on most public and private lands in the United States, can provide an overarching structure for mitigating and adapting to climate change.

It is time we acquired something of the forestry sense of the provident folk of the old world -the instinct to protect the woods, to plant a tree where no more valuable plant will grow. It is time we paid heed to our idle acres - that we restored woods, industries, and people on the large part of our soil which lacks them all.

Download or read book Forests and Forestry in the United States Classic Reprint written by United States; Forest Service and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forests and Forestry in the United States The present forest area of the United States is estimated at 463,000,000 acres, or something more than 723,000 square miles. This is a little more than one-half the original forest area of the country. The stand of timber is estimated roughly at 746 billion cubic feet, of which 485 billion cubic feet is saw timber and 261 billion cubic feet cordwood. Almost three-fourths of the saw timber is in the remaining virgin forests. These remaining virgin forests are chiefly found in two widely separated regions, the South and far West, from which the United States is now drawing the bulk of its lumber cut. Together, they have 85 percent of the total area still occupied by virgin growth, and 95 percent of the remaining stand of virgin timber. The area of virgin growth in the far West is twice that in the South, with a stand in the ratio of 3 3/4 to 1. But the lumber cut of the South, as compared with that of the far West, is in the ratio of 7 to 6. In the three hundred years that have passed since settlement began, the virgin forests of the United States have been the primary dependence of its inhabitants for their supplies of lumber. Only forty years ago intelligent men were wont to speak of the country's forest resources as inexhaustible. But it is now entirely clear that the needs of the nation require immediate and general provision for growing timber, as agricultural crops are grown. The lumber industry has been supported and is still mainly supported by the diminishing and retreating old-growth forests, now reduced to one-sixth their original size. A few years more will leave little but second growth in the pine forests of the South; and thereafter the requirements of the country for softwood lumber must be met from the western forests, involving heavy transportation costs, and from what has grown up on the cut-over lands in the older regions. These lands were first lumbered without provision for continuous production and then neglected. Left to take care of themselves as wild lands, and exposed to progressive devastation from recurrent forest fires, they have nevertheless grown a certain amount of timber, but for the most part of inferior quality.
