Elsevier, the information analytics company specializing in science and health, has announced the publication of Forest Management and Planning, Second Edition by Pete Bettinger, Kevin Boston, Jacek P. Siry and Donald L. Grebner. The book addresses contemporary forest management planning issues, providing a concise, focused resource for forest management students, researchers and new professionals. Elsevier also announced the publication of three additional plant science books.
The new edition of Forest Management and Planning contains chapters that concentrate on quantitative subjects, such as economics and linear programming, as well as qualitative chapters that provide discussions of important aspects of natural resource management, such as sustainability. Incorporating the latest research and forest certification standards, the book includes a case study of a closed canopy, uneven-aged forest, new forest plans from South America and Oceania, and a new chapter on scenario planning and climate change adaptation. It presents updated, real-life examples that are illustrated both mathematically and graphically.
The four new forestry and plant science titles are: Forest Management and Planning, Second Edition by Pete Bettinger, Kevin Boston, Jacek P. Siry and Donald L. Grebner; Insect-Plant Interactions in a Crop Protection Perspective, edited by Nicolas Sauvion, Denis Thiery and Paul Andre Calatayud; How Plants Communicate with their Biotic Environment, edited by Guillaume Becard; and Hormone Metabolism and Signaling in Plants by Jiayang Li, Chuanyou Li and Steven Smith.
In order to meet content needs in the botanical sciences, Elsevier uses proprietary tools to identify the gaps in coverage of the topics. Editorial teams strategically fill those gaps with content written by key influencers in the field, giving students, faculty and researchers the content they need to answer challenging questions and improve outcomes. These new books, which will educate the next generation of botanical scientists, and provide critical foundational content for information professionals, are key examples of how Elsevier is enabling science to drive innovation.
