Forest Science: Sustainable Processes and Wood Products

Forest Science: Sustainable Processes and Wood Products by Elias Costa de Souza, Subramanian Senthilkannan Muthu
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 249 Pages | ISBN : 9819928451 | 54.8 MB

This book highlights the sustainability aspects of products and processes in forest science. The forest products sector supplies raw materials to several industrial sectors worldwide. These products can be classified as timber or non-timber products. Wood products are those that originate from the woody fraction and can include pulp, charcoal, firewood, and others. The non-timber products, on the other hand, have the products extracted from the different parts of the tree, such as bark, leaves, fruits, resins, oils, tannins, or even products extracted from non-woody biomass, such as palm heart or carnauba, among others. There are new studies and new products developed from forests worldwide each day. However, studies that evaluate the sustainability of these products and the processes related to their production are not so common. It is essential to highlight the sustainability aspects of these activities and the products obtained from them; such that steps can be taken to make the processes eco-friendly.

The Atlantic Forest: History, Biodiversity, Threats and Opportunities of the Mega-diverse Forest

The Atlantic Forest: History, Biodiversity, Threats and Opportunities of the Mega-diverse Forest by Marcia C. M. Marques
English | EPUB | 2021 | 527 Pages | ISBN : 3030553213 | 44.7 MB

The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue.
