Description:

This book is a synthesis of knowledge on the impacts of harvesting on long-term site productivity, stemming from information gathered from the International Energy Agency Bioenergy Agreement Project on Environmental Impacts of Intensive Harvesting. Annual workshops during the project have produced much new and important information and the work of over 150 collaborators on the project has been carefully synthesised into this book.
