Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on research related to forest ecosystems, including their management, health, and the utilization of forest resources. It covers topics such as the application of artificial intelligence in forest operations, the impact of pests and diseases on forest health, and the effects of disturbances like fires and insect outbreaks on wood quality. The scope also extends to forest carbon dynamics, ecosystem services, and the integration of remote sensing and dendrochronology for understanding forest growth and responses to climate change. Additionally, it addresses forest management practices, including closer-to-nature approaches and mechanized harvesting systems, as well as the wood-based circular bioeconomy and the conservation of tree species.
