Optimizing timber transportation planning for timber harvesting using bees algorithm in Malaysia.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of environmental management [J Environ Manage] 2023 Aug 15; Vol. 340, pp. 117977. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Apr 20.
Abstract: Suitable extraction technique and the least cost while reducing the environmental impact is the primary concern in timber transportation planning in undulate topography. Two types of extraction machines with unique characteristics to be applied in timb...
The carbon costs of global wood harvests.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Nature [Nature] 2023 Aug; Vol. 620 (7972), pp. 110-115. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jul 05.
Abstract: After agriculture, wood harvest is the human activity that has most reduced the storage of carbon in vegetation and soils 1,2 . Although felled wood releases carbon to the atmosphere in various steps, the fact that growing trees absorb carbon has led t...
Machine learning-based prediction and assessment of recent dynamics of forest net primary productivity in Romania.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of environmental management [J Environ Manage] 2023 May 15; Vol. 334, pp. 117513. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Feb 21.
Abstract: While the analysis of spatio-temporal changes in the net primary productivity (NPP) of forests can provide critical information on carbon cycle and climate change, these ecological trends have remained unclear in many countries worldwide, including Rom...
Transitional forestry in New Zealand: re-evaluating the design and management of forest systems through the lens of forest purpose.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society [Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc] 2023 Aug; Vol. 98 (4), pp. 1003-1015. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Feb 19.
Abstract: Forestry management worldwide has become increasingly effective at obtaining high timber yields from productive forests. In New Zealand, a focus on improving an increasingly successful and largely Pinus radiata plantation forestry model over the last 1...
Tropical deforestation causes large reductions in observed precipitation.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Nature [Nature] 2023 Mar; Vol. 615 (7951), pp. 270-275. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Mar 01.
Abstract: Tropical forests play a critical role in the hydrological cycle and can influence local and regional precipitation 1 . Previous work has assessed the impacts of tropical deforestation on precipitation, but these efforts have been largely limited to cas...
Smart forest management boosts both carbon storage and bioenergy.
Publication Type: Editorial & Opinion

Current practices of conducting forest management plans in the Amazon may risk the survival of timber species.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Environmental science and pollution research international [Environ Sci Pollut Res Int] 2023 Jul; Vol. 30 (34), pp. 82589-82600. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Jun 16.
Abstract: Measurement of the recovery of wood stocks in logging areas in the Amazon helps to understand the efficiency of policies for the use and conservation of native forests. This work evaluated the effects of logging on the dynamics and production of commer...
Long-term game species dynamic as indicator for changing landscape quality.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): The Science of the total environment [Sci Total Environ] 2023 May 20; Vol. 874, pp. 162375. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Feb 28.
Abstract: Urban sprawl, increased traffic and modern forestry, as well as the globalisation of agriculture, have increasingly been affecting the landscape and its quality as habitat for species especially since the middle of the last century. Still, there are ha...
Evaluation of mushroom production potential by combining spatial optimization and LiDAR-based forest mapping data.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): The Science of the total environment [Sci Total Environ] 2022 Dec 01; Vol. 850, pp. 157980. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Aug 11.
Abstract: High-resolution forest mapping technology is a powerful data source to assess the production capacity of forests regarding wood and non-wood ecosystem services. The study shows how to evaluate the potential benefits from forest management treatments de...
