The Desa'a forest in Tigray is a national forest priority area managed by the government. Government authorities grant access to local communities as the forest is the source of income for many households. To allow the forest provide such economic needs and ecological functions, its sustainability...

The present paradigm regarding the forests, from an economic point of view, has to swift drastically in order to keep the sustainability of it. The existing forest economic models, rooted in sustained yield timber management systems and neo-classical economic framework, are subject to many...

The paper seeks to examine the nature, structure and determinants of the forest economy of northeast India using secondary data from various sources. The study employs tools like percentage, compound annual growth rate, per capita availability and multiple regressions to find out the growth trend,...

The high degree of fragmentation and unsustainable exploitation patterns of forest resources have become prominent obstacles to the realisation of the economic and social value of China's forest resources. China's forest eco-bank (FEB) project was set up to achieve centralised utilisation of...

Accurately estimating the forest farmers' protection costs for forest ecosystem services has become a hot issue in ecological economics. In this research, we propose a novel method of using an auction price model to evaluate the forest ecosystem services. We establish a functional relationship...

Climate change exerts an increasingly strong influence on Swiss forest ecosystems. Changes in site conditions and the increased risk of disturbances (droughts, windthrow, storms) have a considerable negative impact on the silvicultural potential of forests. However, these effects can be mitigated...

This article deliberates the processes, principles, and rules relevant to forest-sector climate change mitigation and adaptation in light of the nationally determined contributions (NDCs) of the Paris Agreement (PA). We tackle such issues as targets and indicators, scope and information needs of ...

In Ukraine, the timber volume harvested from sanitary cuttings is increasing, while the state of national forests is decreasing. These trends have focused the attention of public authorities and increased public debate on the role of forests for society. A forest policy reform process needs to...

This study examines state-owned forest areas in Heilongjiang Province, China, and uses statistical data from 2011 to 2019 to evaluate the dynamic coupling and coordination relationship between the forest environment and economic development. The study aims to provide guidelines for the sustainable...

In timber production, sustainability means maintaining resources by balancing timber harvest with timber growth. In forest management, sustainability also refers to a constant and steady flow of income. The aim of this study is to resolve the contradiction, whether a sustainable/continuous flow of...
