Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Two-Part Tax Controls for Forest Density and Rotation Time [PDF]
Many forest amenities are derived not only from the age of the trees, but also from the density of the trees. When an externality such as erosion control is considered, clear-cutting results in much larger damages than occur with selective cutting.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Using camera‐trap data from 26 protected across Tanzania, we show that greater landscape heterogeneity and stronger protection are associated with higher mammal species richness and, in turn, functionally and phylogenetically richer mammal assemblages. Greater landscape heterogeneity appears to favour generalist species while stronger protection seems ...

Costs and efficiency of timber harvesting by NIAB 5–15 processor mounted on a farm tractor
Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2007 The present research deals with costs and economic effectiveness of timber harvesting technology with the use of the NIAB 5–15 processor mounted on a farm tractor, which method is used in Poland. Measurements were conducted in pine, fir and spruce stands,

CIRI LIMBAH PEMANENAN KAYU DI HUTAN RAWA GAMBUT TROPIKA
Jurnal Ilmu Pertanian Indonesia, 2013 Effectiveness of timber harvesting in peat swamp forest is low. It is indicated by highly logging waste caused by timber harvesting operation. Thus, logging waste should be studied to describe characteristic and volume of logging waste in locations of ...

Side‐selling in coffee cooperatives: Insights from cooperative and non‐cooperative farmers in Mexico
Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates side‐selling in Mexican coffee cooperatives, seeking to answer what drives side‐selling, what drives the expected share side‐sold and what non‐cooperative farmers perceive about side‐selling. Our conceptual framework, a contribution to this literature, proposes that farmers’ economic pressure, coffee quality and ...
