  • Preliminary evidence of softwood shortage and hardwood availability in EU regions

    Open AccessNicola Bozzolan, Godefridus M J Mohren et al.ARTICLEForest Policy and Economics2024References: 2

    As the overall demand for wood-based products continues to grow, questions arise on how local wood resources and industry characteristics can effectively meet this growing demand. In the European Union (EU) 550 million m 3 of wood is harvested annually, and is to a large extent processed by the wood industry. Little is known about the interplay between industrial capacity and the regional availability of timber resources. We compared the capaciti…

  • Climate-Smart Forestry

    Open AccessPieter Johannes Verkerk, R Costanza et al.ARTICLEForest Policy and Economics2020Cited by: 7References: 2

    To achieve the objectives of the Paris Climate Agreement, a significant reduction in carbon dioxide emissions is needed, as well as increased removals by carbon sinks. In this context, we argue that Climate-Smart Forestry is a necessary, but still missing component in national strategies for implementing actions under the Paris Agreement. Climate-Smart Forestry is needed to (a) increase the total forest area and avoid deforestation, (b) connect m…

  • Hotspots of land use change in Europe

    Open AccessTobias Kuemmerle, Christian Levers et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2016

    Assessing changes in the extent and management intensity of land use is crucial to understanding\nland-system dynamics and their environmental and social outcomes. Yet, changes in the spatial\npatterns of land management intensity, and thus how they might relate to changes in the extent of land\nuses, remains unclear for many world regions.Wecompiled and analyzed high-resolution, spatiallyexplicit\nland-use change indicators capturing changes in …

  • Challenges and opportunities in mapping land use intensity globally

    Open AccessTobias Kuemmerle, Karlheinz Erb et al.ARTICLECurrent Opinion in Environmental…2013

    Future increases in land-based production will need to focus more on sustainably intensifying existing production systems. Unfortunately, our understanding of the global patterns of land use intensity is weak, partly because land use intensity is a complex, multidimensional term, and partly because we lack appropriate datasets to assess land use intensity across broad geographic extents. Here, we review the state of the art regarding approaches f…
