Cílem bakalářské práce je analýza procesů ukládání a tání sněhové pokrývky v podmínkách malého zalesněného povodí Sklářského potoka v Jizerských horách. Součástí této studie je posouzení vlivu globální klimatické změny a lesnické činnosti na akumulaci a tání sněhu. Pro období 1982 – 2019 vyplývá klesající trend roční maximální výšky sněhu a ročních...
General context: Intra-specific diversity plays a key role in species' response to climate change (CC) and their ability to adapt locally through plastic response and/or response to selection. However, the CC velocity is likely to exceed the natural adaptation potential of most species and populations. One solution is to use assisted migration to b...
In order to accommodate foreseen climate change in European forests, the following are recommended: (i) to increase the number of tree species and the structural diversity; (ii) to replace unsuitable species by native broadleaved tree species, and (iii) to apply close-to-nature silviculture. The state forest department of Baden-Württemberg (BW) cur...
De afgelopen jaren zijn op diverse plekken in Nederland bossen ingericht als marteloscoop. De naam “marteloscoop” is afgeleid van het Franse martelage = hameren of blessen, en –scoop = kijken, onderzoeken. De marteloscoop “Oostereng” is officieel in gebruik genomen tijdens de jubileumbijeenkomst van Pro Silva Nederland op 8 oktober 2015. Het betref...

In November 2004 a catastrophic windstorm destroyed a large part of the spruce forest in the Tatra National Park (Slovakia). The majority of the windthrown area was cleared; only a small part was left uncleared, thereby allowing regeneration by natural succession. The aim of the present study was to assess the impact of the different forestry pract...
This thesis aims at identifying the different kinds of institutional influences on forest practices of small farmers in the Amazon region of Ecuador and Bolivia and how small farmers respond to them. It departs from the perspective that institutions affecting forest practices are subject to processes of institutional bricolage in which small farmer...
Although policies to improve forest management have been widely introduced, poor logging practices remain prevalent in tropical forests. We assess whether recent radical changes in forestry laws in Peru will result in significant improvements in logging practices. We adapt North's conceptual framework of institutional change to analyze the impact o...
Timber companies and policy makers in the Brazilian Amazon urgently need financial information on forest management. Results from a few experiments, case studies, and surveys have been groundbreaking, but are insufficient. A strategic partnership between timber companies and research organizations is needed to generate additional information. This ...
In deze modelstudie worden de effecten van `niets doen¿ en actief beheer onderzocht op de bosontwikkeling en structuurvariatie. Hiervoor is een model verder ontwikkeld en zijn koppelingen gelegd met monitoringsdatabestanden en analyse- en visualisatietechnieken. Simulatieresultaten dienen voorzichtig geïnterpreteerd te worden door beperkingen in he...
