Old-growth forests around the world are vanishing rapidly and have been lost almost completely from the European temperate forest region. Poor management practices, often triggered by socioeconomic and institutional change, are the main causes of loss. Recent trends in old-growth forest cover in Rom...
In comparison to the CAFC map, a regional map derived from MODIS Vegetation Continuous Fields tended to underestimate forest cover, while the Global Forest Change product matched well. The Global Forest Resources Assessments, based on individual country reports, overestimated forest cover by 1.5 to ...

Updated and comparable statistics on the area and biomass stock of the Forest Available for Wood Supply (FAWS) in Europe are essential to better assess the current biomass resources available for the bioeconomy, to understand the factors limiting wood availability, and to model the potential wood s...
Historically, assessments of the forest resource situation have focused on timber supply, and the data used to support the assessments came from traditiona... RA Birdsey - 《General Technical Report Wo》 被引量: 851发表: 1992年 DIRECT ESTIMATION OF ABOVEGROUND FOREST PRODUCTIVITY THROUGH HYPERSPECTR...

This part consists of several small pools of water at different altitudes, all the way to the north of the map, which are based on real-world structures called rimstone dams. To the west of that is a narrow path covered with fire geysers. To the south is a sandy beach where Fiery ...
We found that 75.1% of global forests experienced a decline in fragmentation during the first 20 years of the 21stcentury, which suggested that most global forest landscapes were generally improving. However, forest fragmentation exhibited divergent patterns in different regions of the world. On the ...
Here, we build on those efforts to progress further towards a complete map of Europe’s primary forests. First, we secured permission from all data holders to release all data with open-access. Second, we aggregated and harmonized 16 additional regional-to-continental spatial datasets to now cov...
Biome-level stratification was based on the 16 major habitat types delineated by the Nature Conservancy (TNC) Terrestrial Ecoregions of the World dataset (TNC, 2012). Excluding inland water, deserts and xeric shrublands, and rock and ice, we merged the major habitat types into eight forest and...
