In the discussion of how forests can contribute to reducing the content of greenhouse gases on the atmosphere, most focus has been given to the sequestration of carbon dioxide in forests. Few studies have analysed the additional impact wood-based product has as a substitute for other materials....

Adjacency constraints along with even flow harvest constraints are important in long term forest planning. Simulated annealing (SA) is previously successfully applied when addressing such constraints. The objective of this paper was to assess the performance of SA under three new methods of...

This paper studies effects of public cost sharing on reforestation in Norway by applying various econometric specifications to a large panel of Norwegian non-industrial forest owners for the period from 1993 to 2003. Using both average estimators and estimators with individual specific...

<title>Abstract</title> The forest sector in Norway is very transport intensive, accounting for approximately 14% of total domestic freight transport traffic on Norwegian roads. This paper presents an analysis linking a general equilibrium freight transport modelling tool with a partial equilibrium model of...

A dynamic bio-economic model has been used at watershed level in Nepal to analyze the land-use changes, forest and soil conditions and their resultant impacts on carbon (C) sequestration. Planning horizon of the model extends over a period of 25 years. The objective function is maximization of...
