Differences in forest stand structure between forest ownership groups in central Finland

Article Abstract:

A study on forest ownership groups in central Finland showed that there are substantial differences in forest stand structure. This research revealed that private-owned forests have more tree storeys and occupy a greater diameter range in moist heaths as compared to forests owned by the state or industrial companies while dryish or dry heaths induce similar variances in tree species. Through this study, the state of forests has been measured which may lead to improved forest management and better regional forest management planning and ecological planning.

National-scale vegetation change across Britain; an analysis of s ample-based surveillance data from the countryside survey of 1990 and 1998

Article Abstract:

Patterns of vegetation in Great Britain between the period 1990 and 1998 are described based on an analysis of plant species from a total of 9596 fixed plots. Two types of analyses based on changes in plant species composition within monitoring plots are reported.

Country 'choices' or deforestation paths: a method for global change analysis of human-forest interactions

Article Abstract:

The authors combine a time series, multinomial logit and empirical analysis approach to categorize a nation's deforestation rate pattern. These patterns include stable or expanding forest cover, moderate forest loss, worsening or extreme loss, and improving loss.
