Assessment of Forest Road Networks for Landslide Susceptibility
Landslides, which usually occur in mountainous and hilly areas, occur as a result of the soil or rock material forming a slope moving down under the influence of gravity. Forested areas, mostly in mountainous regions, are susceptible to landslides.

Predicting the combined impacts of climate change and selective logging in timber production forests of Central Africa. [P-2215-03] [PDF]
In the design and the implementation of current rules of Sustainable Forest Management (SFM), still too little account is taken of the sensitivity of tropical forests to climate change. In the Congo Basin, forests cover 220 million hectares and represent
