Collective timber price agreements in Norway

Silva Fennica, 1978
In this paper the system of collective timber price agreement in Norway is described. The history of »collective behaviour» in the roundwood market can be tracked far back in history, with different degrees of importance, and it has totally dominated ...

Quantifying Climate Change Effects of Bioenergy and BECCS: Critical Considerations and Guidance on Methodology

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2025.
Studies vary in the reported climate effects of bioenergy and BECCS. Estimates depend on case‐specific factors (the biomass production system, design and efficiency of conversion and capture processes), methodology and assumptions. We present a methodology to support robust, consistent estimates of the climate change effects of bioenergy systems.

Radiative Forcing of Aerosol Emissions Under Alternative Wood Use Scenarios in Finland

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2025.
Instantaneous and effective radiative forcings for the increased wood use scenarios in Finland were studied in comparison to current wood use. An increase of 10 million m3 in the annual harvest was alternatively allocated to energy biomass combusted in small‐scale appliances (80 EB SSB) or in medium‐to‐large scale boilers (80 EB LSB), to sawn wood ...

Leveraging Biomass Procurement to Mitigate Carbon Emissions at the Stand Level: A Case Study in Eastern Canadian Forests

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2025.
The carbon emission reductions from using residual forest biomass for bioenergy remain controversial, despite its potential to mitigate climate change. This study evaluated how intensifying wood procurement for bioenergy, alongside supplying fiber for conventional wood industries, can support low‐carbon forest management.

A Global Assessment of Plant and Animal Community Responses to Forest Management Over Time

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
Written Summary: We assessed the effects of seven forest management systems on biodiversity over time. We find that biodiversity responds more negatively to intensive than extensive forest management, but we also find that biodiversity can recover over time, particularly in intensively managed plantations and agroforests. ABSTRACT Transitions to forest

A multiple criteria decision analysis approach for assessing the quality of hardwood species used by Greek timber industries

Folia Oecologica
Timber industries make an essential contribution to economies worldwide, while the sustainable supply of timber generates revenue, supports employment, and contributes to economic activity. The strategic choice of wood species using specific criteria can

Production economics and carbon footprint of an integrated timber harvesting operation in the Northeastern US

Energy Nexus
Woody biomass has tremendous potential to reduce the reliance on non-renewable energy, however, the high cost, uncertain harvesting carbon footprint, and policies may hinder it from becoming a predominant component of the US renewable energy sector ...
