Analysis of land use/land cover change and erosion hazard levels in the social forestry area of KPH Ulubila, South Sulawesi Indonesia

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2023
Changes in land use/land cover are part of the dynamics of nature, both changes caused by natural disasters and human activities. The need for land by humans encourages the acceleration of land cover change, especially from forests to non-forests.

Dynamics of the land use, land use change, and forestry sink in the European Union: the impacts of energy and climate targets for 2030

Climatic Change, 2016
A 2030 climate and energy policy framework was endorsed by the European Council in 2014. The main elements are a binding 40 % greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction target compared to 1990, a renewable energy share of 27 %, and an energy savings target of at ...

Forest conservation practices: Insights of local communities near wildlife-protected areas in Ghana

Journal of Agriculture and Rural Development in the Tropics and Subtropics
Effective forest conservation relies on active community participation; however, local communities in Ghana are often excluded from policy development. This study explored community perspectives on forest conservation by identifying practices that local ...

A data-driven framework for forest conservation prioritisation: From citizen science data to protected area designation

Ecological Informatics
With the ongoing biodiversity decline around the world, the establishment of protected areas provides a key strategy for conservation. Yet, the designation of protected areas is complex and requires the integration of ecological, spatial, and socio ...
