Forests are a central part of ecosystems around the world, and in an era when climate change is a challenge that cannot be ignored, environmentally responsible forest management is a necessity. This is the first in a two-volume set, Forest Ecosystems and Forest Management. The volumes bring together expert perspectives on the environmental aspects of forest management through case studies in a variety of climatic zones. The key areas of focus across the volumes include: current research in sustainable forest management, drawing on studies in Europe and Africa; new advances in forestry research, such as on the effects of deforestation on water resources in Kenya; sustainable forest management from a wide range of geographical perspectives; case studies in sustainable management; the analysis, climatic effects and management of deforestation around the world; forest ecosystems in Europe, Asia, Africa, North and South America; and the specific ecologies of tropical forests in a range of countries. The volumes give a truly global picture of current research and knowledge in this important field, and will be useful to students and investigators in ecological and environmental sciences, as well as for professionals engaged in forestry who wish to be informed about new advances in management.
