Mangrove Forest Restoration and Rehabilitation
2017We analyzed current best practices and recommendations used in the implementation of mangrove rehabilitation and restoration (R/R) projects in the Atlantic-East Pacific (AEP) and the Indo-West Pacific biogeographic regions during the last 20 years. Comprehensive literature and World Wide Web searches were performed identifying 90 sites around the world

An estimated 2 billion ha of forests are degraded globally and global change suggests even greater need for forest restoration. Four forest restoration paradigms are identified and discussed: revegetation, ecological restoration, functional restoration, and forest landscape restoration.

Temperate forests cover more than 20 million km of the Earth’s surface, including forest types such as boreal conifer forests, the mixed deciduous forests of the United States, Europe, western Asia, China and Japan, and the evergreen rain forests of Chile, New Zealand, and Tasmania. In the Northern Hemisphere, dominant tree genera are typically members

Large-scale Forest Restoration
2014Landscapes are being degraded and simplified across the globe. This book explores how forest restoration might be carried out to increase landscape heterogeneity, improve ecological functioning and restore ecosystem services in such landscapes. It focuses on large, landscape-scale reforestation because that is the scale at which restoration is needed ...

Floodplain forests are unique ecosystems that are located alongside rivers and streams. These systems derive their characteristics from periodic inundations. The extent, structure, and diversity of floodplain forests have been strongly modified by human pressures acting at the catchment, reach, and local scales.

The need to repair habitat and restore forest structure and function is recognized throughout the temperate and boreal zones as a component of sustainable forest management (Dobson et al. 1997; Krishnaswamy and Hanson 1999; Minnemayer et al. 2011). Forest restoration is a complex task, complicated by diverse ecological and social conditions, which ...
