Cooperative Strategies for Forest Science Management and Leadership in an Increasingly Complex and Globalized World
Proceedings of a workshop by the International Union of Forest Research Organizations, held 23-26 Aug. 1998 in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada, sponsored by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Forest Service; Ministry of Natural Resources Canada; Ministry of Natural Resources Quebec; and Forintek Canada Corp. The purpose of this workshop was to develop organizational networks to help achieve best practices in management and leadership of forest research and foster continuous learning toward that goal through organizational benchmarking. The papers and notes in the volume document the presentations and discussions of the workshop.
Understanding Forest Disturbance and Spatial Pattern
Remote sensing and GIS are increasingly used as tools for monitoring and managing forests. Remotely sensed and GIS data are now the data sources of choice for capturing, documenting, and understanding forest disturbance and landscape pattern. Sitting astride the fields of ecology, forestry, and remote sensing/GIS, Understanding Forest Disturbanc
Integrated Pest Management and Pest Control
Integrated Pest Management is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. Its programs use current and comprehensive information on the life cycles of pests and their interactions with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment.
Genetic Response of Forest Systems to Changing Environmental Conditions
Changing environmental conditions substantially affect genetic variation and its dynamics in forest ecosystems and various systems of plantations. In response to these challenges, the present book focuses on the response to stress in terms of case studies which address physiological and genetic characters as well as various metric traits. Furthermore a choice of studies is presented which refers to diversity and geographic variation of various species and site conditions, respectively. In addition, genetic resources are characterised and a variety of studies is compiled which address reproduction and migration as well as management aspects. Finally, a set of studies is presented which focus on forest tree breeding with respect to uncertain climatic futures.
