ELSEVIER Forest Management And Planning by Jacek P Siry and Professor Peter Bettinger and Donald L Grebner and Kevin Boston
Forest Management and Planning provides a focused understanding of contemporary forest management issues through real life examples to engage students.
The methodology for the development of quantitatively-derived forest management plans - from gathering information to the implementation of plans at the forest level - are clearly explained. Emphasis is placed on the development of traditional commodity production forest plans using linear programming, the development of alternative forest plans, and problem resolution in planning.
The authors have developed this book based on their personal experience in teaching forest management courses and the review of ten forestry programs (Auburn University, University of Georgia, Iowa State University, Louisiana State University, Northern Arizona University, Ohio State University, Pennsylvania State University.
