In this paper the authors discuss recent trends in poverty concepts and suggest a locally adapted multidimensional model for measuring and monitoring poverty. The model comprises nested layers with subjective wellbeing in the centre surrounded by a core of health, wealth and knowledge, and a cont...

This paper summarises the results of a study on the growth of 17 timber species that are commonly logged in African rainforest areas: aningre (Aningeria altissima), obeche (Triplochiton scleroxylon), bosse clair (Guarea cedrata), dabema (Piptadeniastrum africanum), dibetou (Lovoa trichilioides), ...

The lottery model of competition between species in a variable environmental has been influential in understanding how coexistence may result from interactions between fluctuating environmental and competitive factors. Of most importance, it has led to the concept of the storage effect as a mecha...

Between 1988 and 2000, changes in the above-ground biomass (AGB) of trees in an East Kalimantan lowland forest, damaged by fires in 1982-83 and 1998, were estimated using allometric functions and an annual inventory of stem diameter. The original vegetation of the study site was lowland dipteroca...

One of the key goals of social forestry is to involve the poor as project beneficiaries. It is possible to measure the degree of attainment of this goal by collecting socioeconomic data before and after project implementation. This approach cannot be applied at the many sites where ex-ante data w...

Tree stems contract and expand as stem water is depleted and replaced. Band dendrometer studies suggest that such daily changes are small (<0.2 mm diameter), and they are ignored in most growth measurements. However, several studies using other approaches note larger changes (even >1 cm diameter)...

Acacia Mangium Willd. is one of the most important tree species grown in commercial plantation in Monsoon Asia. Recently, the need for accurate information in the biomass in plantations has become more urgent, especially since the amount of carbon sequestered in afforestation/reforestation Clean ...

Estimation of the commercial volume to diameters and variable heights for Tectona grandis L.F. in Costa Rica. Management practices for Tectona grandis have improved during the last decade. However, accurate volume equations are not available yet. The aim of this study was to test equations which ...

General measures summarizing the shapes of mortality and fecundity schedules are proposed. These measures are derived from moments of probability distribution related to mortality and fecundity schedules. Like moments, these measures form infinite sequences, but the first terms of these sequences...

Discusses, briefly, the principle of radiometric measurements and presents results of ground measurements on reflectance, grass cover (both green plants & total cover), and grass biomass in Sidamo, Ethiopia. Includes analysis of the correlation of the normalized difference green vegetation index ...
