In this paper we explore meaning makings of gender equality in forestry by drawing on a national survey of all women with an academic forestry education in Sweden. We analyse two open-ended questions concerning their experiences of being a woman in forestry and how gender equality in forestry could be improved. The aim is to investigate how these narratives construct norms and notions of gender equality in relation to forestry. We identify three dominant logics where gender equality is constructed: 1, in relation to women and concerning numerical representation. 2, as gendered power relations and organisational norms and culture. 3, as something distant from themself by emphasising that their position in the industry is motivated by competence rather than gender. While issues of gender equality has climbed the agenda of the men dominated Swedish forestry, little is known about how these initiatives are being received and understood among men and women working in forestry. On-going research on ...

Under the system, all Forest Management Units operate under direct supervision of the Forest Management Certification provisions to carry out Forest Resource Assessments, establishment of Permanent Sample Plots, assessments on environmental and social impact as well as High Conservation Value Forests. In addition, committees have also been set up to address issues from the local communities under the forest management areas, which include safety and conflict resolutions in a comprehensive Forest Management Plan. The other international standards used for forest certification include Malaysian Timber Certification Scheme, which is endorsed by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification and the Forest Stewardship Council, which are the standards used by certification-accredited bodies internationally. The main benefits to having third party verified sustainable forest management system include sound forest management practices, habitats protection as well as cultural assets. Through ...

There is an emerging global trend towards more responsible and sustainable investment practices that is creating an increased appetite for forestry investments. This is against a backdrop of a dearth of forestry investment performance data of the kind suitable to aid econometrically significant investment projections. This article uses historical roundwood timber and lumber price data combined with a forestry discount rate to synthetically create historical forestry investment returns for the last two centuries. A Forestry Investment Total Return (FITR) Index is created from this data. A key advantage of the index is not relying on smoothed timber prices, making returns more representative of their reporting period. The FITR Index shows forestry investment outperforming equities over long durations, with a lower standard deviation of returns and a positive, rather than negative, skew of returns. The article suggests that responsible and sustainable investments can produce strong investment ...

The Forestry Commission has conducted similar surveys of public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues every two years since 1995. The most recent set of three separate surveys was conducted in 2011; in Scotland, Wales, and across the UK as a whole. The full results are available within the 2011 Public Opinion of Forestry reports available on our website at www.forestry.gov.uk/forestry/infd-5zyl9w.. Questions were asked to gauge the publics agreement on climate change issues, including on the ways in which forests and woodlands can impact on climate change. Some of the public views presented below do not reflect expert opinion.. The highest level of agreement was seen with the statement trees are good because they remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in wood, with 82% agreeing (Figure 4.3). This compares with only 36% agreeing with the statement using wood for fuel makes climate change worse because it releases carbon dioxide.. Figure 4.3 Public opinion on ways ...

Wildfire smoke is a pall with a particularly oppressive quality; something we here are becoming too familiar with after two consecutive summers of provincial wildfire emergencies. The depressing possibility of even a third destructive season is imaginable looking at conditions so far this spring. The hazardous health effects of wildfire smoke on forestry workers and the general public are, of course, now being documented. As we reported in the last RoundUpDate, WorkSafeBC will consider workplace exposure to wildfire smoke capable of contributing to wildfire fighters developing cancer and other illnesses. Just what we know so far about this emerging hazard will be the topic of a two-day workshop hosted by the BC Wildfire Service next week in Merritt. The BC SAFE Forestry Program has been invited to attend in the hopes of better understanding the risks to wildfire fighters and other forestry workers and how to mitigate them. For some forestry workers the hazards of wildfire have recently been more ...

Abstract: In this study, the land use change in a large basin of Calabria region (southern Italy) subjected to extensive reforestation at the end of the 50 has been carefully reconstructed and compared with the current situation. The runoff capacity of the basin was estimated using data available for the temporal periods before and after the reforestation interventions. The results show that the surface of the basin interested by former reforestation activities did not affect the runoff, probably due to a trade-off between the effects of reforestation and a concurrent increase in urbanized and degraded areas. Indeed, the hydrological response is linked to structural complexity of reforested areas, currently at an early stage of development that can be further promoted through forest management activities.

Interest in conserving and managing the natural forests of West Africa dates back to colonial times when forest area was reserved for government use. According to Jackson et al. (1983), around 1980 the area of these forêts classées in five in West African countries was equal to 9 percent of the total area of tree formations (see Table 3). To this area should be added much bigger areas set aside as national parks or game reserves. The intention was that the reserved forests be conserved, managed and utilized by the respective governments. However, notwithstanding the theoretical interest in natural forest management, it usually remained little more than a concept. Some of the main obstacles to the development of natural forest management in Africa have also been inherited from the former colonial governments, i.e. outdated practices and approaches. Foresters continue to be involved mainly in raising seedlings in nurseries for the numerous afforestation and plantation programmes. Natural ...

Downloadable! This paper investigates the potential contribution of forestry management in meeting a CO2 stabilization policy of 550 ppmv by 2100. In order to assess the optimal response of the carbon market to forest sequestration we couple two global models. An energy-economy-climate model for the study of climate policies is linked with a detailed forestry model through an iterative procedure to provide the optimal abatement strategy. Results show that forestry is a determinant abatement option and could lead to significantly lower policy costs if included. Linking forestry management to the carbon market has the potential to delay the policy burden, and is expected to reduce the price of carbon of 40% by 2050. Biological sequestration will mostly come from avoided deforestation in tropical forests rich countries. The inclusion of this mitigation option is demonstrated to crowd out some of the traditional abatement in the energy sector and to lessen induced technological change in clean technologies.

Wildfires are nothing new. They are a part of nature, but what Oregon and most of the Pacific Northwest is facing this summer is unprecedented.. While climate change is a factor, decades of fire suppression and broken federal forest management policies have left our forests overgrown and waiting to burn. Forests are not static - they grow, die, and burn. In Oregon alone, the amount of timber in our national forests increases through growth by over 50% every year. The result is unnaturally dense forests that fuel increasingly catastrophic wildfires.. We must do better.. In 2018, I helped lead Congress to pass into law some of the most extensive forest management policy reforms our nation had seen in more than a decade. We provided additional tools and funding to the Forest Service to more quickly implement critical forest management projects.. The Trump administration is taking advantage of these tools, and progress is being made toward improving the management of our federal lands. The U.S. ...

the ecology of tri-colored bats and their status as a species that has been recently petitioned for listing through the Endangered Species Act. Dr. Blomberg will also discuss a previous CFRU-funded project on the ecology of northern long-eared bats in Maine commercial forests.. After this talk, adjunct faculty member Michael Thompson (University of Maine School of Forest Resources), will speak on the role of forest certification in bat conservation. Landowners in Maine who are certified under the Sustainable Forestry Initiative or the Forest Stewardship Council must consider the impact of forest management on wildlife, including bats, with additional emphasis placed on conserving habitats for rare, threatened, and endangered species. This brief presentation will cover the obligations of certified landowners regarding conserving important wildlife habitats with more specific details regarding what to expect concerning bats during annual certification audits.. There will be time for questions ...

Small areas were privately planted in trees in the 1880s, and advocates for exotic forestry became more vocal in the 1890s. The Forestry Branch of the Lands Department was set up in 1897, beginning a major programme of afforestation (planting commercial forests) to meet future timber needs. The state remained the only large-scale planter until the mid-1920s.. At first the Forestry Branch concentrated on Waiotapu in the central North Island, where 3,726 hectares were planted from 1901 to 1920. Other planting took place at Dumgree in Marlborough, Hanmer in Canterbury and Conical Hill in Otago, on land unsuited for agriculture, to meet future regional timber needs.. ...

HEELS ON WHEELS: 2009 SUBARU FORESTER REVIEW HEELS ON WHEELS By Katrina Ramser San Francisco Bureau The Auto Channel INTRO TO THE FORESTER VEHICLE The Forester dropped its nerdy look and adapted an SUV sex appeal that seems to work for both consumers and automotive media alike. The 2009 Forester has the honor of being awarded Motor Trends 2009 Sport/Utility Car of the Year and also became Consumer Reports top-rated small SUV, beating out competitors like the tougher looking Toyota RAV4 and the sleek, redesigned Honda CR-V. I drove a 2009 Forester with the 170-horsepower, 2.5-liter 4-cylindar Pzec (Partial Zero Emissions) engine ($451), 4-speed auto transmission with Sport Shift ($1,000) and Subarus standard symmetrical all-wheel drive. Highlights from the premium package that came standard with my model included a large, power moonroof; roof rails; rear seat retractable cup tray; all-season 17-inch tires; and steering wheel mounted controls.

Forestry is an applied science related to the sustainable management of natural resources. Many scientific disciplines influence forest science including ecology, economics and other social sciences. In this paper, it is proposed to promote the sustainable management of forest resources using a method coming from the Environmental Management Accounting discipline. The method is Material Flow Cost Accounting, which assists managers to recognize material and energy inefficiencies in production processes and create cost savings for the organization. Through a study of the methodology and using forestry examples, it is shown that Material Flow Cost Accounting can be a useful tool for forest managers, either in Public Forest Service, or other forestry organizations.

A HISTORY OF THE WASATCH-CACHE} NATIONAL FOREST Submitted to the Wasatch-Cache National Forest September 25, 1980 by Charles S. Peterson Linda E. Speth Utah State University FORWORD AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In writing this history of the Wasatch-Cache National Forest we have followed the suggested Forest Service history outline in spirit and general context. As the outline suggests, we have tried to put the Forest in its broader persoective, both as it relates to develooments within the Forest Service generally and local background. At the same time we have looked closely at the actual function of the Forest during its various stages. Interpretively we have proceeded from the potnt of view that the Wasatch-Cache National Forest spreads over a substantial geographic area and that a playoff between interests that are essentially urban on the one hand and rural on the other, has made for considerable diversity in the programs of the Forest. Conflict between conservationists and non-conservationists ...

The New Zealand Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry was formerly known as the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, but in 1995 responsibilities for fisheries were passed to the newly formed Ministry of Fisheries. However, the government of New Zealand decided that, despite the loss of Fisheries, the newly created Ministry of Agriculture should continue to be known by the acronym MAF, and should still use the same logo, because of the high recognition and regard for the name and logo amongst the countrys overseas trading partners. In 1998, this Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Forestry merged to become the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. On 1 July 2010, the Food Safety Authority and MAF were amalgamated, and on 1 July 2011 the Ministry of Fisheries was also merged into MAF.[1] MAF in turn merged with the New Zealand Food Safety Authority in April 2012 to form the Ministry for Primary Industries. The name change proved problematic however, with New Zealand shipments of meat ...

According to media reports, the forestry department in goa is disputing the claims of the farmers who say that wild animals are causing damage to their crops and want them to be declared as vermin. The forestry department, claims that though a large number of farmers are registered, very few have approached them saying that wild animals have caused damage to their crops, so that their claims could be checked.. In case when farmers are complaining, the forestry department is installing camera traps (similar to those used in wild life sanctuaries) to find out which animal is causing damage to the crop. They claim that in case of one farmer, it was found that domestic animals were damaging the crops of the farmer. In another case no animals were spotted when the camera trap was installed. It is possible that the farmers want wild boar to be declared vermin so that it can be killed easily, and then the meat can be used for cooking at home and in other places, Many of the dead wild animals have some ...

The effects of old-growth forests in relation to global warming has been contested in various studies and journals. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said in its 2007 report: In the long term, a sustainable forest management strategy aimed at maintaining or increasing forest carbon stocks, while producing an annual sustained yield of timber, fibre or energy from the forest, will generate the largest sustained mitigation benefit.[23]. Old-growth forests are often perceived to be in equilibrium or in a state of decay.[24] However, evidence from analysis of carbon stored above ground and in the soil has shown old-growth forests are more productive at storing carbon than younger forests.[25] Forest harvesting has little or no effect on the amount of carbon stored in the soil,[26] but other research suggests older forests that have trees of many ages, multiple layers, and little disturbance have the highest capacities for carbon storage.[27] As trees grow, they remove carbon from the ...

RUTLAND VT (July 24, 2019) - Forest Service officials announced today that they are implementing a Forest Order for the entire Green Mountain National Forest (GMNF) geared toward minimizing black bear and human encounters and interactions. The order specifies proper food storage and prohibits leaving food, or refuse on National Forest system lands in Vermont. The Order was issued to provide for visitor safety and the conservation of bears. Similar Forest Orders have been implemented on other National Forests throughout the country including one on the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire. The result has been a reduction in the number of reported encounters between humans and bears. The new Forest Order applies to the entire GMNF, including the Rochester / Middlebury and Manchester Ranger Districts.. Recently, Forest Service officials in Vermont have had several reports of bear sightings, bears approaching shelters and even a bear entering a tent where campers have been present. The ...

Shoshone National Forest (/ʃoʊˈʃoʊniː/ shoh-SHOH-nee) is the first federally protected National Forest in the United States and covers nearly 2,500,000 acres (1,000,000 ha) in the state of Wyoming. Originally a part of the Yellowstone Timberland Reserve, the forest is managed by the United States Forest Service and was created by an act of Congress and signed into law by U.S. President Benjamin Harrison in 1891. Shoshone National Forest is one of the first nationally protected land areas anywhere. Native Americans have lived in the region for at least 10,000 years, and when the region was first explored by European adventurers, forestlands were occupied by several different tribes. Never heavily settled or exploited, the forest has retained most of its wildness. Shoshone National Forest is a part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, a nearly unbroken expanse of federally protected lands encompassing an estimated 20,000,000 acres (8,100,000 ha). The Absaroka and Beartooth Mountains are ...

The BC Forest Safety Council has recently looked into the risk of forestry workers being exposed to damaging levels of airborne silica and the related health implications. Silicosis is a form of occupational lung disease caused by inhalation of crystalline silica dust, and is marked by inflammation and scarring in the form of nodular lesions in the upper lobes of the lungs. The most common activities in which workers are at risk of exposure to silica dust are those that undertake chipping, grinding, drilling or hammering of rock or concrete that contains silica. Although silica is a common material, its relative presence in parent materials varies widely (e.g. crystalline silica is typically present in dust emanating from quartz, marble and sandstone). The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that silica exposure is a serious threat to nearly two million American workers. However, low historic frequency of claims citing silicosis suggests that, while its risks are not insignificant, silica ...

Succeeding in price and quality competition is not possible on a domestic basis alone. Adjusting to globalization is vital for the Finnish pulp and paper industry. Expanding production to other continents is indispensable so that the future competitiveness of domestic production can also be ensured. Finnish industry cannot respond to the needs of customers around the world on a domestic basis alone.. Succeeding in global competition is just as indispensable for the Finnish forest industries now as internationalization and the resulting consolidation and strong growth were a few decades ago. If bold steps had not been taken then, in all probability the Finnish forest industries would today consist of subsidiary mills directed from head offices abroad, more likely to shrink than to grow.. The operating model for the global paper industry in the coming years is quite clear. Pulp mills will be built in South America and Russia. Paper and board machines will be located in Asia, especially China. In ...

Forests and woodland comprised about 8,210,000 hectares (20,287,000 acres) in 2000. There are rich stands of coniferous forests in the northern provinces. Predominant trees include oak, alder, larch, pine, spruce, and fir. Timber production was estimated at 7 million cu m (247 million cu ft) in 2000. About 80% of the timber cut was used for fuel. Sawn wood production in 2000 was 280,000 cu m (9.9 million cu ft); wood pulp, 56,000 tons; and paper and paperboard, 80,000 tons. The Ministry of Forestry, created in 1980, promotes development of forest industries. ...

The general economics literature separates government intervention in the market into standards and charges . Standards refer to physical limitations such as regulations that restrict the harvest and shipment of logs or environmental regulations that restrict timber harvest activity in riparian zones. Charges refer to economic instruments that permit managerial discretion in achieving publicly acceptable levels of resource allocation. The common charges are taxes or fees for licences or permits. Financial incentives and other government assistance that reduce the costs of production are a second group of economic instruments that are widely recognized in forestry. We will review the effects of forest taxes, incentives and standards or regulations in that order. Taxes. Governments impose three general categories of tax on forests in one place or another: income taxes, property taxes or their substitutes and severance taxes. Some taxes are primary sources of public revenue. For these, the ...

Forest is a resource that is increasingly utilized for multiple purposes. The balance between energy demands and the long-term capacity of ecosystems to support biodiversity and other ecosystem services is crucial. The aim of this project was to increase the knowledge on and to develop methods and tools for trade-offs and synergies analysis among forest ecosystem services based on different forest management policies.. Paper I provides an overview of existing models for integrated energy-environment assessment. A literature review was conducted on assessment models and their ability to integrate energy with environmental aspects. Missing environmental aspects concern land use, landscapes and biodiversity. In Paper II a modelling framework was set up to link a landscape simulator with a habitat network model for integrated assessment of bioenergy feedstock and biodiversity related impacts in Kronoberg County. In Paper III we continued with the same management scenarios, while the analysis was ...
