Coastal Protection by Planted Mangrove Forest during Typhoon Mangkhut

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Mangroves provide many ecosystem services, including coastal protection against storm surges and waves. As an adaptive method for coastal defense, mangroves were widely restored and planted in tropical and subtropical regions, such as the coastal regions

Fuelwood demand and supply in Rwanda and the role of agroforestry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fuelwood in Rwanda is assumed to come from forests and woodlands, thus contributing to large-scale deforestation. Available studies on fuelwood demand and supply support this assumption and indicate a continuously rising demand of fuelwood, notably from ...

Forests and Decarbonization – Roles of Natural and Planted Forests [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020
The severe consequences of human disruptions to the global carbon cycle have prompted intense interest in strategies to reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Because growing forests capture CO2 in their biomass and soils, large-scale tree planting efforts have been advertised as a viable way to counteract anthropogenic emissions as part of net-zero ...
