Zusammenfassung: The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change recognises that, in the formulation of a global strategy for reducing global emissions of carbon (the main factor in global warming) forests could play an important role. This book highlights that role and demonstrates how the forests of the world may be harvested judiciously and sustainably. The authors argue that the forests are more than just a source of timber and wood; they discuss the role that forests play in reducing global warming, in preventing soil erosion and in helping to minimise the loss of biodiversity. Drawing on the expertise of contributors associated with the analysis of forests, this book is an in depth and fascinating discussion as well as a policy guide for the sustainable management of forestsZusammenfassung: pt. 1. Biophysical aspects of forestry and carbon management -- pt. 2. The economic valuation of forests : boreal and tropical case studies -- pt. 3. Forest policy : case studies from North, Central and South AmericaPPN: PPN: 1023433796Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-EWE
