Policies for climate mitigation on land rarely acknowledge biophysical factors, such as reflectivity, evaporation, and surface roughness. Yet such factors can alter temperatures much more than carbon sequestration does, and often in a conflicting way. We outline a framework for examining biophysical factors in mitigation policies and provide some best-practice recommendations based on that fram...

Adaptive image interpretation systems can learn optimal image interpretation policies for a given domain without human intervention. The policies are learned over an extensive generic image processing operator library. One of the principal weaknesses of the method lies with the large size of such libraries, which can make the machine learning process intractable. We demonstrate how evolutionary...

In environmental and natural resource planning domains actions are taken at a large number of locations over multiple time periods. These problems have enormous state and action spaces, spatial correlation between actions, uncertainty and complex utility models. We present an approach for modeling these planning problems as factored Markov decision processes. The reward model can contain local ...

Under the National Poverty Eradication Programme (NPEP) overall visions for agriculture, integrated watershed management and forestry seek to coordinate sectors in facilitating a holistic transformation of upland livelihoods to reduce rural poverty and conserve natural resources. Operational policies, however, still centre on stabilising shifting cultivation, eliminating opium production, land ...

In the BC central interior, fine-textured glaciolacustrine sediments are an important soil parent material on many productive forest sites, particularly along major river valleys such as the Fraser and Nechako. With easy proximity to major transportation routes and wood processing facilities, many such sites were harvested early in the history of logging in this region, long before the advent o...

The major purpose of this study is to assess the perception of managers in the Forest, Range and WatershedOrganization. It is an applied study by using descriptive–correlative method. A questionnaire was developedand data collected from 105 respondents. The validity and reliability of questionnaires was verified. Theresults of study show that there was a relationship between educational level, ...

Continuing attempts to align science and technology policies with industrial and societal needs have aroused interest in the determination of research priorities. In this paper, we report a case study where leading experts from industry and public administration were assisted by multicriteria decision analysis in the planning of a collaborative research program for Scandinavian forestry and for...
