South America is experiencing rapid change in forest cover, of both native and planted forest. Forest cover loss is primarily attributable to fire, logging, and conversion of native forest to agriculture, pasture, and ...

High-resolution yield maps are an essential tool in modern agriculture. Using spatial interpolation, spatially discrete sampled yield data from yield monitors can be transformed into continuous yield maps. However, spatial ...

Natural forest remnants have been set as seed production fields to supply seeds of native tree species for tropical forest restoration, but the effect of different forest types on seed production has not been accessed to ...

Terrain slope and operators time of experience significantly affect yield and, consequently, wood harvesting costs, which is one of the most costly activities of productive chain of planted forests. A full tree harvesting ...

Managing Pinus elliotii forests for timber production and/or carbon sequestration is a common management objective, but can negatively affect water yield due to high losses from evapotranspiration. Thus, understanding the ...
