De Manderheide in Noordoost-Twente is onderdeel van het Natura 2000-gebied Springendal – Dal van de Mosbeek. Dit rapport presenteert een plan voor het herstel van de Manderheide in het kader van het Programma Aanpak Stikstof, met name gericht op habitattype Droge heiden (H4030) in de context van een goed functionerend heidelandschap. Als uitgangspu...

Herbebossen in een droog, zonovergoten en zout klimaat, kan dat wel? Ja, zolang je maar slim samenwerkt met de natuur. De vernietigende werking van loslopend vee op de inheemse plantengemeenschappen van droge tropische eilanden is vaak aangetoond. Het goede nieuws is dat met de juiste maatregelen de inheemse flora en fauna een behoorlijke veerkrach...

Jaarlijks neemt het totale areaal tropisch bos af, maar in sommige tropische landen (Costa Rica, India, Vietnam) neemt het bosareaal juist toe. Dit duidt erop dat tropische ontbossing gestopt kan worden en geen automatisch gevolg is van bevolkingsgroei en toenemende bosgebruik. Het begrip bossentransitie verwijst naar de omslag van ontbossing naar ...

Developing countries are extremely vulnerable to climate change, due to their strong economic dependency on rain-fed agriculture. Land-use policies can offer a less vulnerable future by design and application of relevant mitigation and/or adaptation strategies. Effectiveness of such strategies depends on local conditions. Therefore, hotspot regions...

This report describes the findings of a feasibility study to treat oil contaminated water using reed beds, and consume the treated saline water using forestry. The feasibility study focused on the social, technical and economical feasibility of a project designed to process 45,000 m3 of water per day. Possible effects of a large scale operation on ...

This report describes the conceptual approach of the CO2FIX V 3.1 model, as well as its implementation and numerous examples. This stand level simulation model is a tool which quantifies the C stocks and fluxes in the forest biomass, the soil organic matter and the wood products chain. Included are also a bioenergy module, a financial module and a ...
