Análisis de REDD+

Autor: Angelsen, A. , Brockhaus, M. , Sunderlin, W.d. , Verchot, L.

Número de Páginas: 504

Como idea, REDD+ ha tenido un éxito notable: Constituye un enfoque nuevo que genera esperanzas de financiación en base a resultados para abordar la acuciante necesidad de mitigación del cambio climático. Ha sido una iniciativa lo suficientemente amplia como para servir de dosel bajo el cual toda una serie de distintos actores pueden cultivar sus propios árboles. REDD+ enfrenta retos enormes: Fuertes intereses políticos y económicos hacen que persista la deforestación y la degradación. La puesta en práctica debe coordinarse entre distintos niveles y agencias de gobierno; los beneficios tienen que repartirse y se ha de buscar el equilibrio entre la efectividad y la equidad; es preciso abordar adecuadamente la inseguridad y las salvaguardas de tenencia; y hay que disponer de instituciones transparentes, un seguimiento confiable de los niveles de carbono, así como niveles de referencia realistas que respalden unos sistemas basados en resultados. REDD+ propugna un cambio transformador, y además puede impulsarlo: La introducción de incentivos económicos nuevos, nueva información y nuevos discursos, nuevos actores y nuevas coaliciones políticas tendrá el potencial de...

Silviculture in the Tropics

Silviculture in the Tropics

Autor: Sven Günter , Michael Weber , Bernd Stimm , Reinhard Mosandl

Número de Páginas: 547

This book integrates the latest global developments in forestry science and practice and their relevance for the sustainable management of tropical forests. The influence of social dimensions on the development of silvicultural concepts is another spotlight. Ecology and silvicultural options form all tropical continents, and forest formations from dry to moist forests and from lowland to mountain forests are covered. Review chapters which guide readers through this complex subject integrate numerous illustrative and quantitative case studies by experts from all over the world. On the basis of a cross-sectional evaluation of the case studies presented, the authors put forward possible silvicultural contributions towards sustainability in a changing world. The book is addressed to a broad readership from forestry and environmental disciplines.

Bio-based Wood Adhesives

Bio-based Wood Adhesives

Autor: Zhongqi He

Número de Páginas: 367

Adhesive bonding plays an increasing role in the forest product industry and is a key factor for efficiently utilizing timber and other lignocellulosic resources. As synthetic wood adhesives are mostly derived from depleting petrochemical resources and have caused increasing environmental concern, natural product and byproduct-derived adhesives have attracted much attention in the last decades. Although adhesives made from plant and animal sources have been in existence since ancient times, increased knowledge of their chemistry and improved technical formulation of their preparation are still needed to promote their broader industrial applications. The primary goals of this book are to (1) synthesize the fundamental knowledge and latest research on bio-based adhesives from a remarkable range of natural products and byproducts, (2) identify need areas and provide directions of future bio-based adhesive research, and (3) help integrating research findings in practical adhesive application for maximal benefits. This book covers information on a variety of natural products and byproducts and the latest research on formulation, testing and improvement of the relevant adhesives in...
