Factors Determining Households’ Decision to Practice Homegarden Agroforestry in Burie District, Northwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Homegarden agroforestry is one of the oldest farming practices in Ethiopia and the tropics, and is regarded as an economically sound and environmentally sustainable land use system. Despite a presumed high potential to improve the livelihoods of billions and maintain ecological stability, its adoption and implementation by farmers remain limited. Hence,

Stem Volume Allometric Models for Eucalyptus camaldulensis Plantation in Jabi Tehnan District, Northwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Accurate estimation of forest volume in plantation forests can be made through species‐specific models. However, such models are scarce in Africa, particularly in Ethiopia. This study aimed to determine the form factor and develop an improved species‐specific volume model for Eucalyptus camaldulensis in Jabi Tehnan district, Northwestern Ethiopia.

Matching of forest restoration strategy to environmental conditions matters: evidence from south‐central Ethiopia

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.
Abstract Introduction Matching restoration strategies to environmental conditions is essential for successful forest landscape restoration in Ethiopia, but remains challenging due to limited guidance. Objectives We evaluated the performance of restoration strategies based on forest stand structure and biomass across varying soil, elevation, and climate

Horizon scanning of potential invasive alien plant species and their distribution in Norway under a changing climate

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
Invasive alien plant species can cause considerable ecological, economic, and social impacts, and the number of impactful species will likely increase with globalisation and anthropogenic climate change. Preventing potentially invasive alien plant species from becoming introduced is the most cost‐effective way to protect Norway's ecosystems from future

Contrasting climate drivers of seasonal growth in western vs. eastern Mexican mountain conifer forests

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2023
Hydroclimate affects the radial growth responses of trees, but the drivers of their spatial and population variability are not sufficiently understood. We addressed this issue by sampling several conifer populations located at the same latitude, but at ...
