商品描述

Over the last two decades, the topic of forest ecosystem services has attracted the attention of researchers, land managers, and policy makers around the globe. The services rendered by forest ecosystems range from intrinsic to anthropocentric benefits that are typically grouped as provisioning, regulating, supporting, and cultural. The research efforts, assessments, and attempts to manage forest ecosystems for their sustained services are now widely published in scientific literature. This volume focuses on broad-scale aspects of forest ecosystem services, beyond individual stands to large landscapes. In doing so, it illustrates the conceptual and practical opportunities as well as challenges involved with planning for forest ecosystem services across landscapes, regions, and nations. The goal here is to broaden the scope of land use planning through the adoption of a landscape-scale approach. Even though this approach is complex and involves multiple ecological, social, cultural, economic, and political dimensions, the landscape perspective appears to offer the best opportunity for a sustained provision of forest ecosystem services.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在過去的二十年中，森林生態系統服務的主題吸引了全球研究人員、土地管理者和政策制定者的注意。森林生態系統所提供的服務範圍從內在的到以人類為中心的利益，通常被歸類為供應、調節、支持和文化服務。對於森林生態系統的研究努力、評估以及管理其持續服務的嘗試，現在已廣泛發表在科學文獻中。本書著重於森林生態系統服務的廣泛層面，超越單一樹種，涵蓋大型景觀。在這樣做的過程中，它展示了在不同景觀、區域和國家規劃森林生態系統服務所涉及的概念和實際機會以及挑戰。這裡的目標是通過採用景觀規模的方法來擴大土地使用規劃的範疇。儘管這種方法複雜，並涉及多個生態、社會、文化、經濟和政治層面，但從景觀的角度來看，似乎提供了持續提供森林生態系統服務的最佳機會。

Perera, Ph.D. (Penn State University), is a Senior Research Scientist and leader of the forest landscape ecology program at Ontario Forest Research Institute, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Adjunct Professor at University of Waterloo, York University, and University of Guelph. Dr. Perera has over 25 years of research experience in landscape ecology, focusing on quantifying and modeling spatio-temporal patterns in boreal forest disturbances. He has authored over 150 science publications and has been senior editor, co-editor and author of nine books on Forest Landscape Ecology.


Urmas Peterson, Ph. D. Geogr., is a Senior Research Fellow at the Department of Remote Sensing, Tartu Observatory, Estonia and an Associate Professor with the Institute of Forestry and Rural Engineering, Estonian University of Life Sciences. Dr. Peterson has over 30 year-experience in remote sensing of seasonal and successional dynamics of northern temperate forest communities. His current research interests include understanding and measuring boreal and northern temperate forest landscape changes using remote sensing tools.


Guillermo J. Martínez Pastur, Forest Engineer (Universidad Nacional de La Plata) and Doctor in Agronomy (Universidad Nacional del Sur), is a Senior Research Scientist at CONICET, Argentina. Dr. Martinez Pastur has over 20 years research experience in forest management, conservation and landscape ecology, focusing on the southernmost native temperate forests of the World. He has authored more than 150 papers and 25 book contributions and has been associate editor of several journals and special issues related to ecology and landscape ecology.


Louis R. Iverson, Ph.D. (University of North Dakota) is a research landscape ecologist with the US Forest Service, Northern Research Station in Delaware, Ohio, and Adjunct Professor with the School of Natural Resources at the Ohio State University.
