Scope & Guideline
Empowering ecological understanding through open access.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Tropical Forest Ecology and Biodiversity:
The journal focuses on the ecological dynamics of tropical forests, including species diversity, habitat suitability, and the impact of various management practices on forest health and biodiversity. - Sustainable Forest Management and Policy:
Research often addresses the principles and practices of sustainable forest management, exploring the implications of policy frameworks, community involvement, and stakeholder engagement in forest governance. - Socio-Economic Aspects of Forestry:
The journal investigates the socio-economic factors influencing forest management, including traditional ecological knowledge, local livelihoods, agroforestry systems, and the role of indigenous communities in sustainable practices. - Climate Change and Environmental Impact:
A core area of focus is the relationship between forest management practices and climate change, including studies on carbon storage, land use changes, and environmental degradation. - Innovative Management Techniques and Technologies:
The journal highlights innovative approaches and technologies in forest management, including remote sensing, GIS applications, and community-based management strategies.
Trending and Emerging
- Community-Based Forest Management:
There is a growing trend towards research on community-based approaches to forest management, emphasizing the role of local communities in sustainable practices and conservation efforts. - Climate Change Mitigation Strategies:
Emerging themes include research on strategies for climate change mitigation through forestry, such as carbon sequestration and adaptation practices in forest ecosystems. - Biodiversity Conservation and Restoration:
An increased focus on biodiversity conservation and restoration efforts reflects a response to the urgent need for ecological resilience in tropical forests. - Technological Innovations in Forestry:
The journal is showcasing more studies on technological innovations, including the use of remote sensing, drones, and data analytics in forest monitoring and management. - Socio-Ecological Systems and Resilience:
Research exploring the interplay between social and ecological systems is gaining traction, highlighting the need for integrated approaches to address complex forest management challenges.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Forestry Practices:
Research exploring traditional forestry practices and their applications has decreased, possibly due to a growing emphasis on modern techniques and scientific approaches to forest management. - Single-Species Management Studies:
There has been a noticeable reduction in studies focusing exclusively on single species management, as the journal increasingly embraces ecosystem-level analyses and biodiversity-focused research. - Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs):
While still relevant, studies specifically centered on NTFPs have waned in frequency, potentially overshadowed by broader investigations of ecosystem services and multifunctional forest management. - Conventional Land Use Practices:
Research on conventional land use practices, such as monoculture plantations, is declining as the journal shifts towards sustainable and integrated land-use strategies. - Urban Forestry Initiatives:
Although urban forestry remains important, the focus on urban forest management has decreased, with a shift towards more rural and community-based forest management studies.
