Book Synopsis No Timber Without Trees by : Duncan Poore
Download or read book No Timber Without Trees written by Duncan Poore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the world's tropical timber is still supplied from natural forest, but under current systems of management the forests are rapidly becoming exhausted. Unless management practices change to become genuinely sustainable, neither the forests nor the essential contribution of the timber industry to many economies will survive. Duncan Poore reviews the extent to which natural forests are already being sustainably managed for timber production, and looks at how these practices can be enlarged. He places management for timber in the wider context of tropical forest conservation and outlines a strategy for further action. Thoroughly researched and accessibly written, this book will be useful for everyone working or interested in the subject of tropical forests. Foreword by Dato Dr B.C.Y. Freezailah Originally published in 1989

Book Synopsis Conservation and Management of Tropical Rainforests, 2nd Edition by : Eberhard F Bruenig
Download or read book Conservation and Management of Tropical Rainforests, 2nd Edition written by Eberhard F Bruenig and published by CABI. This book was released on 2016-12-07 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Conservation and Management of Tropical Rainforests applies the large body of knowledge, experience and tradition available to those who study tropical rainforests. Revised and updated in light of developments in science, technology, economics, politics, etc. and their effects on tropical forests, it describes the principles of integrated conservation and management that lead to sustainability, identifying the unifying phenomena that regulate the processes within the rainforest and that are fundamental to the ecosystem viability. Features of the natural forest and the socio-cultural ecosystems which can be mimicked in the design of self-sustaining forests are also discussed. A holistic approach to the management and conservation of rainforests is developed throughout the book. The focus on South-East Asian forestry will be widened to include Africa and Latin America. Recent controversial issues such as biofuels and carbon credits with respect to tropical forests and their inhabitants will be discussed. This book is a substantial contribution to the literature, it is a valuable resource for all those concerned with rainforests.

Book Synopsis Sustainable management of logged tropical forests in the Caribbean to ensure long-term productivity by : Gräfe, S., Köhl, M., Eckelmann, C.M., Bremner, Q., Oatham, M., Pacheco, R., Playfair, M., Shono, K.
Download or read book Sustainable management of logged tropical forests in the Caribbean to ensure long-term productivity written by Gräfe, S., Köhl, M., Eckelmann, C.M., Bremner, Q., Oatham, M., Pacheco, R., Playfair, M., Shono, K. and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-09-01 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To facilitate sustainable management of logged forests in the Caribbean, forest authorities of Belize, Guyana, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago, jointly with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the University of Hamburg as a scientific partner, implemented the regional project “Ensuring Long-Term Productivity of Lowland Tropical Forests in the Caribbean” financed by the German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture. The main objective of the project was to support the sustainable management of logged forests to maintain productivity and prevent further degradation. For this purpose, extensive field studies were conducted in the project countries, which resulted in silvicultural recommendations presented in this publication. The project findings revealed that the application of general sustainable forest management protocols for tropical production forests that set limits on harvesting does not necessarily ensure sustained productivity if the composition and management of the residual stand are not considered. The ratio of the number of harvested trees to the remaining future crop trees can provide a simple indicator of the sustainability of harvest. If the current harvest exceeds the number of future crop trees, the harvest is not sustainable. As a rule of thumb, at least one, preferably two future crop trees per harvested tree should be retained for future use. Protection of future crop trees can be a simple and practical approach to prevent high grading and degradation of the forest growing stock. The importance of reduced impact logging to reduce unnecessary damage to the future crop trees and for sustainable forest management, in general, is stressed.

Book Synopsis Developing a Scientific Basis for Sustainable Management of Tropical Forest Watersheds by : Min Thant Zin
Download or read book Developing a Scientific Basis for Sustainable Management of Tropical Forest Watersheds written by Min Thant Zin and published by Universitätsverlag Göttingen. This book was released on 2005 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myanmar is a country situated in continental Southeast Asia and most parts of the country are highlands forming as watersheds of country's drainage systems. These highland watersheds are usually clad with tropical forests of different types providing productive and protective functions essential for sustainable development of the country. Accordingly, sustainable forest management has to be adopted as a standard approach for effective watershed conservation whereas timber production guided by sustained yield principles would be one of the overriding objectives. Four case studies provide some useful insight into resolution for some technical problems of the prevailing strategic challenges in sustainable forest management for effective conservation of forest watersheds of the country.
