Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Silvicultura  Ecología vegetal  Biodiversidad  Gestión  Agricultura Clasificación: 634.9 Resumen: Una contribución importante a la floreciente literatura que ensalza las virtudes de la complejidad forestal. Como compendio de la literatura sobre heterogeneidad forestal únicamente, este libro es una referencia indispensable para los estudiosos y profesionales de la gestión forestal ecológica". Gregory H. Aplet, director científico senior, The Wilderness Society "La ecología y la recuperación de los bosques antiguos del este son extremadamente oportunas y enormemente importantes. Los bosques antiguos están desapareciendo rápidamente y los cambios globales exigen que encontremos nuevos enfoques para gestionarlos. Escrito sucintamente por destacados científicos estadounidenses y canadienses, este libro es una lectura obligada para los profesionales forestales y los entusiastas amantes de los bosques de todo el mundo". Christian Messier, Profesor de Ecología Forestal, Université du Québec à Montréal y Université du Québec en Outaouais "Finalmente, un tratado muy necesario y actualizado sobre el estado de los bosques primarios en el Este. Todos los actores forestales deberían leer este libro." Jerry F. Franklin, profesor emérito, Universidad de Washington. Nota de contenido: Foreword -- Preface -- Chapter 1.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : "An important contribution to the burgeoning literature extolling the virtues of forest complexity. As a compendium of the literature on forest heterogeneity alone, this book is an indispensable reference for scholars and practitioners of ecological forest management." Gregory H. Aplet, Senior Science Director, The Wilderness Society "Ecology and Recovery of Eastern Old-Growth Forests is extremely timely and hugely important. Old-growth forests are quickly disappearing, and global changes mandate that we find new approaches to manage them. Succinctly written by prominent American and Canadian scientists, this book is a must-read for forest professionals and enthusiastic forest lovers everywhere." Christian Messier, Professor of Forest Ecology, Université du Québec à Montréal and Université du Québec en Outaouais "Finally, a much-needed, up-to-date treatise on the state of old-growth forests in the East. All forest stakeholders should read this book." Jerry F. Franklin, Professor Emeritus, University of Washington .
