The vast majority of species occurrence datasets are subject to spatial bias, for ex- ample, areas near roads and paths may be more likely to be surveyed than other sites. If unaccounted for, this sur- vey bias can translate into environmental bias in the fitted model. One approach for ...
Whether it’s inspecting trees for their quality and value; analyzing the soil; checking growing conditions; or figuring out if lakes, hunting ground or camping areas can be leased, you need a timberland specialist. You can rely on United Country’s agents, brokers, auctioneers and affiliates...
Community forestry includes a variety of institutional arrangements such as: indigenous management of sacred sites that are cultural important; direct community control or management of forest areas; small-scale forest-based enterprises; forest out-grower schemes; company-community partnerships; and other ...

[4], the areas near the SB offer better conditions for the development of the vegetation due to the retention of solids and the accumulation of mulch (organic matter, litter, etc.) which is dragged towards the SB. 4.2.2. Production of Aerial Phytomass The presence of SB favoured the ...
In this study, we show that SLs are capable of modifying the vertical organization of the turbulence over forested and deforested areas, leading to changes in certain chemical processes that occur near the surface. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents a first in demonstrating that...
Indonesia’s vast forested areas have the potential to serve as a crucial source of livelihood for local communities. However, the current contributions of these forests to community livelihoods are significantly underutilized in comparison to their potential. This study evaluates the financial performance...
