Determinants of Sawnwood Consumption in Slovakia
BioResources, 2018 This paper aimed to determine coniferous and non-coniferous sawnwood demand drivers and used historical data on their development as independent variables in the sawnwood demand models. The study presented a general form of ad hoc model that explained sawnwood consumption per capita as a function of a range of socio-economic factors.

Analysis of Economic Efficiency in Sawnwood Production in Southwest Nigeria [PDF]
Journal of Human Ecology, 2009 This paper deals with the issue of improving economic efficiency in sawnwood production in Ondo and Osun states, southwest Nigeria. The stochastic frontier approach was used to estimate a self dual Cobb Douglas production function which gave estimates of technical, allocative and economic efficiencies.

The life cycle carbon balance of selective logging in tropical forests of Costa Rica
Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 534-547, June 2020., 2020 Abstract The effect of logging on atmospheric carbon concentrations remains highly contested, especially in the tropics where it is associated to forest degradation. To contribute to this discussion, we estimated the carbon balance from logging natural tropical forests in Costa Rica through a life cycle accounting approach.
