Multiple Use of Forests and Other Natural Resources
Aspects of Theory and Application
Finn Helles, Per Holten-Andersen, Lars Wichmann (editors)
This volume comprises eighteen papers, dealing with theory and application of modern decision-making and management planning of multiple use of forests and other natural resources in the landscape. Generally, an economic approach is used as implemented by operations research methods, but broader contexts are applied too, e.g. ecosystem management, discounting, preference analysis and policy formulation.
