Forest structure optimization using evolutionary programming and landscape ecology metrics
A new design framework is introduced for forest structure optimization based on a genetic algorithm landscape encoding and landscape ecology metrics. Landscape ecology is an important interface between the forest management community, which is a traditional user of operations research methods, and the biological conservation community which is relatively new to OR methods and whose goals are in...

متن کاملSpecialty Forest Products in the Forest: Integrating Special Products Into Ecosystem and Landscape Management
The increasing demand for an increasing array of special forest products is forcing forest landowners and managers to address special products within ongoing management and silvicultural activities. Strategies can vary from single species management in agricultural or near agricultural operations to complex forest management strategies which move special products across an ownership or landscap...
متن کاملEcosystem engineering by leaf-cutting ants: nests of Atta cephalotes drastically alter forest structure and microclimate
1. The role played by Atta species as ecosystem engineers remains poorly investigated despite previous evidence that their nests can impact plant assemblages. 2. In a large remnant of Atlantic forest, we compared forest structure at 36 Atta cephalotes nests to control sites and assessed shifts in microclimate along transects from nests up to 24 m into the forest (11 representative colonies). 3....
متن کاملEcosystem Ecology
Floristic succession in the boreal forest can have a dramatic influence on ecosystem nutrient cycling. We predicted that a decrease in plant and microbial demand for nitrogen (N) during the transition from midto late-succession forests would induce an increase in the leaching of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), relative to dissolved organic nitrogen (DON). To test this, we examined the chemi...
