Dear Ecolog:
A special issue for the journal International Journal of Biodiversity
Science, Ecosystem Services & Management was published on “Synergies
between Biodiversity and Timber Management” in April 2016. Papers
examine potential positive interactions between biodiversity and
managing for timber production, especially of high-value species. These
management goals can be in conflict. But the increasing demands for
high-quality timber as well as for biodiversity conservation require
that we consider these aims together. This Special Issue is based on a
technical session at the IUFRO 2014 World Congress. Papers range
geographically from tropical to temperate forests. The overview of the
special issue can be found at:
