Forests in Sustainable Mountain Development

by Martin Price, Nathalie Butt

Overview

Written by leading international authors, this book presents a comprehensive review of forests in mountain regions, and their sustainable development. It is based on a report prepared by the IUFRO Task Force in Sustainable Mountain Development, for the IUFRO Congress to be held in August 2000. The book addresses current issues and initiatives, and defines research needs. Key global topics are addressed in general articles, and many specific regional issues, e.g. impacts on forest lakes in Ecuador, are described in shorter case studies.
