With the increasingly severe global warming, investments in clean technology, reforestation and political action have been studied to reduce CO2 emission. In this study, a nonlinear stochastic model is proposed to describe the dynamics of CO2 emission with control inputs: clean technology, reforestation and carbon tax, under stochastic uncertainties. For the efficient resources management, a ro...

Vast areas of land will require reclamation and reforestation following oil sands development in northeastern Alberta. Greenhouse-grown tree and shrub seedlings used in reforestation may be clipped or girdled by meadow voles, especially during periods of high population density. The impact of partial girdling, the most common form of damage, varies among species. Reduced survival rates in seedl...

Tropical forest habitat continues to decline globally, with serious negative consequences for environmental sustainability. The small mountain country of Nepal provides an excellent context in which to examine trajectories of forest-cover change. Despite having experienced large-scale forest clearing in the past, significant reforestation has taken place in recent years. The range of biophysica...

Reforestation through assisted natural regeneration usually accumulates more biomass carbon than tree planting, but its effects on soil respiration (Rs) and components, autotrophic (Ra) heterotrophic (Rh), are poorly understood despite the importance in forest cycling. In this study, we clear-cut part of a 35-year-old secondary Castanopsis carelesii (C. carelesii) reforested logged land with C....

Reforestation, which converts abandoned farmland back into forestland by planting woody species, can provide habitat for wildlife, including the brown bear (Ursus arctos Linnaeus, 1758). In Shiretoko World Heritage site, northern Japan, where bears occur at high density, conifers have been planted since 1970s to reforest farmland. this area, were first observed digging cicada Lyristes bihamatus...
