Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

It is a pleasure to announce this Special Issue on ‘Selected Papers from the 2nd International Electronic Conference on Forests (IECF2021)’. Forests are major sources of energy and materials and will play a key role in the transition to a low-carbon economy. The challenge lies in achieving multifunctionality where economic profit is maintained without penalty in climate mitigation, water regulation, biodiversity preservation, and the other goods and services provided by forests. This conference will provide leading scientists working in the field with an online platform on which to discuss these issues and share their latest research. The main topics and sessions of the SI include:

  • Forest ecology and management;
  • Forest ecophysiology, genetics, and molecular biology;
  • Forest economics, policy, and social science;
  • Forest inventory, modeling, and remote sensing;
  • Wood science, forest products, and trade;
  • Forest wildfire hazards, risks, and other disasters.
