Relaxing in nature
The influence of forest characteristics on psychological well-being
The effect of forest variables on the restoration of people's mood was investigated. • Environmental and forest parameters were evaluated in Italian inland areas. • Restorative Outcome Scale was applied for psychological analysis. • Season and greenness indices show a significative relation with well-being. • The integrated role of social and environmental variables for ROS was confirmed. This study investigates the influence of forest characteri…
Decision support systems to improve the provision of forest ecosystem services
A forest-based circular bioeconomy for sustainable development
The concept of the circular bioeconomy is becoming increasingly important for the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development worldwide. The aim of this study is to develop a set of indicators suitable to monitor the implementation of the circular bioeconomy principles in the forest-based sector. The indicators were defined considering the 4R framework and tested in a case study in Konya Province, Turkey. The data to calculate t…
Characteristics of deadwood and implications for biodiversity in Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) planted forests in Italy
The aim of the present study is to define a set of indicators to measure the stand diversity of Douglas fir planted forests with special regard to deadwood attributes related to biodiversity conservation. The set of quantitative and qualitative indicators was implemented in a Douglas fir stand in Central Italy (Rincine forest, Tuscany region) realized on degraded Sweet chestnut stands and abandoned agricultural lands from late ‘60s to first ‘80s.…
Valuing nature-based recreation in forest areas in Italy
Nature-based recreation provides benefits facilitating social interactions and cohesion, creating job opportunities, and stimulating the local economy. The aim of this study was to assess the recreational economic value of different forest areas considering two aspects: stand features and proximity of the forest to urban areas. An individual Travel Cost Method (TCM) was applied in three study areas in Italy involving 603 visitors in the survey. T…
Stakeholder analysis in sustainable forest management
The role of emotions on tourists’ willingness to pay for the Alpine landscape
Previous research suggests that landscape preferences vary systematically amongst people. While various sources of heterogeneity have been considered in landscape preference literature, the role of emotions on willingness to pay for landscape features has never been examined. This article presents results of a choice experiment carried out for eliciting tourists’ for Alpine landscapes. The emotional state of respondents was used to model heteroge…
Analysis of stakeholders' involvement in the implementation of the Natura 2000 network in Slovakia
The formulation of the National Forest Programme in the Czech Republic
Trade-off between photovoltaic systems installation and agricultural practices on arable lands
Social Network Analysis to Support Stakeholder Analysis in Participatory Forest Planning
In participatory forest planning, relevant stakeholders are included in the decision-making process. Stakeholder analysis is a crucial step in the participatory process in order to involve all groups of interests, increasing the legitimacy and transparency of the process. On the other hand, to gather an active stakeholder group that can communicate effectively, the number of key stakeholders should be restricted. This study aims to devise a nonsu…
Social Perceptions and Forest Management Strategies in an Italian Alpine Community
Individuals' perceptions are becoming increasingly relevant as a central component of social and environmental sustainability. As a result, the social dimension has become a fundamental element of sustainable forest management. To investigate people's perceptions of forest management, it is necessary to analyze values and norms in the social and cultural context and, at the same time, to consider individual preferences for forest management strat…
The role of social networks in forest landscape planning
Links between Mountain Communities and Environmental Services in the Italian Alps
The aim of this study is to evaluate the importance of mountain communities in increasing the value of environmental services. The assumption of the research is that, for historical and cultural reasons there is a greater sense of local identity and social capital in alpine communities and thus greater attention to the environment. In these communities individuals with a higher level of social capital will have a greater tendency to play a tangib…
