Book Synopsis Georgia's Forest Stewardship Program (Classic Reprint) by : David Moorhead
Download or read book Georgia's Forest Stewardship Program (Classic Reprint) written by David Moorhead and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Georgia's Forest Stewardship Program Your forest is a complex ecosystem where trees, other plants, animals, micro organisms, soil and water interact. Its health, productivity and beauty is an important contribution to the community. Production of raw wood materials provides economic returns and supports Georgia's largest manufacturing industry. But forest habitats also nurture a myriad of plants and animals, including some that are becoming increasingly rare because of habitat loss. Your forest protects soil resources and provides clean water throughout the state. Forests offer aesthetically pleasing views and high-quality recreational opportunities. A commitment to the wise use and management of your forest resources now and for future generations is the cornerstone of Forest Stewardship. What role can you play as a forest landowner to make an impact on the quality of this precious resource? Think back to the fondest memories of your youth. Perhaps you conjure up carefree adventures involving hunting, fishing, camping or hiking. It may not have occurred to you then that those experiences were possible only because someone had taken the time and effort to preserve the natural resources under their control before passing them along. It brings to light that although we may technically own the land, we are only stewards while it is in our care. Land management activities have a profound effect on the quality of the resource today and in the future.

Book Synopsis The Timber Supply Situation in Georgia (Classic Reprint) by : Robert Walter Larson
Download or read book The Timber Supply Situation in Georgia (Classic Reprint) written by Robert Walter Larson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Timber Supply Situation in Georgia Georgia's forests was completed in 1936. During this period annual production of lumber in Georgia more than doubled. Pulp wood production jumped from cords in 1937 to million cords in 1954. Georgia now produces more pulpwood and lumber than any other State in the South. Since 1936, over 16 million acres of forest land have been put under organized fire protection. Pine trees have been planted on more than one-half million acres. About 8 million acres of forest land have been put under management. During the 19 years that the Naval Stores Conservation Program has been in operation, turpentining practices have steadily improved. To get an accurate measure of the impact of these events on Geor gia's timber supply, a second inventory of the State's forests was begun in July 1950. In November 1953 the last of ground survey plots was taken. The findings of this second survey furnish the back ground for an understanding of the present forest conditions in Georgia and focus attention upon the principal forest problems and what needs to be done to solve them. No attempt is made to fully evaluate the use of forests for wildlife, recreation, or grazing; these uses are dis cussed only as they affect the timber supply.

Lufburrow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Biennial Report of the State Forester to the State Forestry Board of the State of Georgia, 1925-1926 Forestry had its beginning in Georgia in the Forestry Act of 1921 providing for a State Board of Forestry composed of five ex - officio members and four citizens appointed by the Governor from the State at Large. The duties of this Board were purely investigative, and to report to the General Assembly of Georgia with whatever recommendations the said Board sees fit to make. However, there were no funds available for the work. The first official report to the General Assembly of Georgia was made in 1922 in compliance with the Act of 1921. The splendid report of this Board received most favorable com ment from all parts of the country. The limited number of copies print-ed was soon exhausted by the enormous demand for this information. The report gave a perfect picture of the forestry situation in Georgia and contained most valuable information per taining to the forest industrial development of the State and its subsequent decline since 1909. Since the report of 1922 covers so completely the industrial phase of the forest problems, the present timber supply and the direct influence which this natural resource has had upon the development of the State, it. Will not be necessary to cover these vital points in this report except by reference. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Management Options by : James M. Vose
Download or read book Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Management Options written by James M. Vose and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forest land managers face the challenges of preparing their forests for the impacts of climate change. However, climate change adds a new dimension to the task of developing and testing science-based management options to deal with the effects of stressors on forest ecosystems in the southern United States. The large spatial scale and complex interactions make traditional experimental approaches difficult. Yet, the current progression of climate change science offers new insights from recent syntheses, models, and experiments, providing enough information to start planning now for a future that will likely include an increase in disturbances and rapid changes in forest conditions. Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Management Options: A Guide for Natural Resource Managers in Southern Forest Ecosystems provides a comprehensive analysis of forest management options to guide natural resource management in the face of future climate change. Topics include potential climate change impacts on wildfire, insects, diseases, and invasives, and how these in turn might affect the values of southern forests that include timber, fiber, and carbon; water quality and quantity; species and habitats; and recreation. The book also considers southern forest carbon sequestration, vulnerability to biological threats, and migration of native tree populations due to climate change. This book utilizes the most relevant science and brings together science experts and land managers from various disciplines and regions throughout the south to combine science, models, and on-the-ground experience to develop management options. Providing a link between current management actions and future management options that would anticipate a changing climate, the authors hope to ensure a broader range of options for managing southern forests and protecting their values in the future.

Book Synopsis Temperate and Boreal Rainforests of the World by : Dominick A. DellaSala
Download or read book Temperate and Boreal Rainforests of the World written by Dominick A. DellaSala and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Temperate rainforests are biogeographically unique. Compared to their tropical counterparts, temperate rainforests are rarer and are found disproportionately along coastlines. Because most temperate rainforests are marked by the intersection of marine, terrestrial, and freshwater systems, these rich ecotones are among the most productive regions on Earth. Globally, temperate rainforests store vast amounts of carbon, provide habitat for scores of rare and endemic species with ancient affinities, and sustain complex food-web dynamics. In spite of their global significance, however, protection levels for these ecosystems are far too low to sustain temperate rainforests under a rapidly changing global climate and ever expanding human footprint. Therefore, a global synthesis is needed to provide the latest ecological science and call attention to the conservation needs of temperate and boreal rainforests. A concerted effort to internationalize the plight of the world’s temperate and boreal rainforests is underway around the globe; this book offers an essential (and heretofore missing) tool for that effort. DellaSala and his contributors tell a compelling story of the importance of temperate and boreal rainforests that includes some surprises (e.g., South Africa, Iran, Turkey, Japan, Russia). This volume provides a comprehensive reference from which to build a collective vision of their future.

Book excerpt: The development of the Rock Eagle 4-H Center is one of Georgia's most cherished stories. During the early 1950's, hardly a person in the state did not know what was happening in Putnam County. Within these pages is the story of a land that experienced battles, heartbreak, devastation and eventual emergence into its intended destiny. There is the story of an evolving Cooperative Extension Service and the dream of many for a place where Georgia's 4-H'ers could congregate, camp and call home. Almost 900 photographs lead the reader through a comprehensive history of the Rock Eagle 4-H Center, detailing how the land became available, who invested in the facilities, when improvements were made, and where the Rock Eagle 4-H Center is headed. For those who want to learn about a camping program that has captured the imagination of campers across six decades, the fundamentals are included. For those readers who are new to Rock Eagle, we welcome you. For others, we hope you enjoy your return to the Rock."I am so appreciative to Ina Cook Hopkins for authoring this book, and for the enormous work that she did in researching each chapter. I am fully convinced that Ina has written the most accurate account of Rock Eagle and its history that could have possibly been done. I don't know how many dozens, if not hundreds, of people that she interviewed or how many thousands of pages that she read, but I know from personal experience that she leaves no stone unturned in her search for accuracy."

Book Synopsis Where There Are Mountains by : Donald Edward Davis
Download or read book Where There Are Mountains written by Donald Edward Davis and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2011-03-15 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely study of change in a complex environment, Where There Are Mountains explores the relationship between human inhabitants of the southern Appalachians and their environment. Incorporating a wide variety of disciplines in the natural and social sciences, the study draws information from several viewpoints and spans more than four hundred years of geological, ecological, anthropological, and historical development in the Appalachian region. The book begins with a description of the indigenous Mississippian culture in 1500 and ends with the destructive effects of industrial logging and dam building during the first three decades of the twentieth century. Donald Edward Davis discusses the degradation of the southern Appalachians on a number of levels, from the general effects of settlement and industry to the extinction of the American chestnut due to blight and logging in the early 1900s. This portrait of environmental destruction is echoed by the human struggle to survive in one of our nation's poorest areas. The farming, livestock raising, dam building, and pearl and logging industries that have gradually destroyed this region have also been the livelihood of the Appalachian people. The author explores the sometimes conflicting needs of humans and nature in the mountains while presenting impressive and comprehensive research on the increasingly threatened environment of the southern Appalachians.
