Opening-up of Forests for Fire Extinguishing Purposes
Information on the existence of forest roads as well as their quality is important not only for planning forest management activities, but also for fire management, which includes fire risk assessment and fire suppression.

A third of the forest area in Central Africa has been granted to logging companies. Logging is highly selective in the region, with an average of 0.7–4.0 trees harvested per ha, but its direct impact on forest structure and the spatial variation of this ...

Boreal forests are heading for an open state
The boreal forest biome is warming four times faster than the global average. Changes so far are moderate, but time lags in responses may transiently maintain forest states which are no longer supported by current environmental conditions. Here, we explore whether tree cover dynamics hint at the state to which the biome may be shifting.

Open Set Recognition for Random Forest
In many real-world classification or recognition tasks, it is often difficult to collect training examples that exhaust all possible classes due to, for example, incomplete knowledge during training or ever changing regimes. Therefore, samples from unknown/novel classes may be encountered in testing/deployment. In such scenarios, the classifiers should

Open access to tree genomes: the path to a better forest [PDF]
An open-access culture and a well-developed comparative-genomics infrastructure must be developed in forest trees to derive the full potential of genome sequencing in this diverse group of plants that are the dominant species in much of the earth's terrestrial ecosystems.

Impact of Canopy Openness on Forest Regeneration and Forest Soil Nutrients
This study investigates the impact of canopy openness on forest regeneration and soil nutrients in six community forests within the Chure region of Makawanpur district, Nepal. A systematic sampling approach was employed across three canopy cover classes—dense (70–100%), moderately dense (40–70%), and open (10–40%)—to assess seedling and sapling ...
