Income from non-timber forest products.
NTFPs can be of particular importance to people in forested mountain locations, because of their relative lack of access to alternative inputs and sources of income. Mountain forest uses centred on NTFPs can show a clearer link between conservation and development potentials due to the reduced opportunities to intensify use of natural resources and to ...

Smart Bioinspired Material‐Based Actuators: Current Challenges and Prospects
This work gathers, in a review style, an extensive and comprehensive literature overview on the development of autonomous actuators based on synthetic materials, bringing together valuable knowledge from several studies. Furthermore, the article identifies the fundamental principles of actuation mechanisms and defines key parameters to address the size

Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

EMPOWERMENT QUALITY IMPROVEMENT OF FOREST FARMER GROUPS IN NON-TIMBER FOREST PRODUCTS MANAGEMENT
Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) management by the forest farmers group (FFG) is not optimal. This condition is thought to be related to the low quality of empowerment of FFG.

Modelling Non-timber Forest Products for Forest Management Planning in Europe
The increased popularity and commercial use of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) calls for the development of models for NTFPs to include their predicted yields in forest management planning and to evaluate the potential of multi-functional forest ...

ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

ABSTRACT The archaeological site Graman B4 provided one of the first records of substantial dietary change in ancient Australian Aboriginal society. Initial examination of the faunal remains from this site suggested that Late Holocene hunters reduced their focus on high‐ranked kangaroos to increasingly rely on arboreal possums; and that these ...

ABSTRACT This study presents a strong framework for the detection and classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets (SCHA) in shallow marine environments using the integration of multibeam echosounder and airborne LiDAR bathymetry with object‐based image analysis and fuzzy logic–based classification.
