Discover new approaches to promote a viable forest industry while
protecting non-timber values!Frontiers of Forest Biology:
Proceedings of the 1998 Joint Meeting of the North American Forest
Biology Workshop and the Western Forest Genetics Association gives
you significant new insights on current initiatives in forest
biology. Because the field is changing rapidly, you need to keep
aware of current trends, as the emphasis in forest research shifts
from productivity-based goals to sustainable development of forest
resources. In this volume, you will find a comprehensive summary of
the state of the art of forest science in North America. Whether
your focus is on genetics or on the environmental aspects of forest
science, plant physiology, or silviculture, you will find helpful
chapters by practitioners as well as cutting-edge research by
scientists. This integrated approach is unique in the field. Based
on the 1998 Joint Meeting of the North American Forest Biology
Workshop and the Western Forest Genetics Association, Frontiers of
Forest Biology addresses changing priorities in forest resource
management. This important book contains fascinating research
studies, complete with tables and diagrams, on topics such as
biodiversity research, the productivity of commercial species,
conserving adaptive variation in forest ecosystems, and the effect
of harvesting trees on nutrient leaching.The book maps the
frontiers of this fast-changing science with chapters on: the
social, biological, and industrial context of forest biology new
directions for research into genetics, physiology, plant
silviculture, and conservation the impact of genetics on
sustainable forestry the effects of cold and disease on plant
physiology regeneration of various species after logging new
species adapted for agroforestry the impact and management of
exotic weeds Frontiers of Forest Biology offers solid information
on a broad spectrum of topics and suggests fresh avenues for your
investigations in all aspects of forest biology.
