Wood Waste Management in Europe through the Lens of the Circular Bioeconomy
Over 30% of the world’s land area is covered by forests. Approximately 761 million m3 of wood is harvested annually in Europe (2017). The aim of the paper is to assess the amount of wood (biomass) produced in Europe per year, as it determines the amount ...

The estimation and modelling of carbon stocks from harvested wood products in New Zealand. [PDF]
Harvested Wood Products (HWP) have become increasingly important in climate change mitigation because of the role they play in carbon storage. While the evidence for this significance has been promising, reliable information on the end-use products made ...

Harvesting mechanization in plantations for wood production: working productivity and costs [PDF]
Harvesting mechanization in plantations for wood production: working productivity and costs. Tree farming has developed rapidly since the early 1990s. Today, tree plantations play an important role in wood supply (including quality wood) and they can partly bridge the gap between national demand and supply which currently leads to substantial wood ...
