Forest applications include forest area estimation and mapping, forest monitoring, forest fire assessment and forest management.

A forest fire broke out in this area.

And after I finished, I went to this area, the Ituri Forest.

Gross and net change in forest area, 1990 2000 (million ha year)

Now we looked at the clouds above this forest we looked at the reforestation area, the semi open area and the open area.

Out of the total area of Bosnia and Herzegovina (5,113,000 hectares), forests and forest land account for 53 per cent (2,700,770 hectares or 0.71 hectares of forest and forest land per capita).

Others are experimenting with efforts to raise productivity and quality in the area of forest products.

Even though the National Forest and Park Service engages in forestry in only part of the area administered by the Committee, 35 per cent of the forest pastures in the winter grazing area and 48 per cent of those in the summer grazing area are subject to forestry operations by the State and private owners.

Agreed ad ref Increase significantly the area of protected forests worldwide and the area of sustainably managed forests and increase the proportion of forest products from sustainably managed forests

Despite the efforts of the international forestry community, total forest area continues to decline in most regions of the world.

As a result of our conservation efforts, Bhutan has successfully maintained 72.5 per cent of its land area under forest cover.

6.3 Regarding the Kippalrova area in which logging was planned, the Committee noted that this forest tract fell within the area covered by the Supreme Court decision of 22 June 1995.

The forest ecosystem and forest resources

Brazil's 1988 Constitution declares its Amazonian forest, to be a national heritage area and any use would be subject to the law.

In the forest. Always in the forest.

Substantial progress has been made in establishing protected area networks in all regions of the world to prevent loss of forest biological diversity.

(f) Enhance national and local capacities in the area of sustainable forest management, carbonization and cooking stoves technologies as well as PV systems.

Make for the forest! To the forest, quick!

Forest operations and the forest industry provide employment and income to millions of workers and forest dwellers.

(y) Enhance access by households, small scale forest owners, forest dependent local and indigenous communities, living in and outside forest areas, to forest resources and relevant markets in order to support livelihoods and income diversification from forest management, consistent with sustainable forest management.

(ii) To improve estimates for change by stratifying parameters that would reduce the variance of forest area changes such as demography, economic indicators and infrastructure

In another project, Landsat TM data were processed on the area of two test sites of 20 x 25 km each for forest ecosystem mapping.

C. Greater recognition of sustainable forest management and forest products trade

(j) Promoting improved forest practices through strengthening sustainable forest management standards

While forest biodiversity continues to decline as a result of deforestation, forest degradation and associated fragmentation of forest habitats, strong efforts are now being made to reverse this trend by restoring the forest functions in degraded forest landscapes.

Over 10 per cent of the global forest area is currently under some form of protection (although the impact and effectiveness of such protection varies significantly).

That programme should increase productivity in the mountain range forest area, supply water to farmers in the region and promote forestry locally with grass roots involvement.

15. Africa has suffered the worst deforestation with its forest cover reduced to only 8 per cent of the total land area of the African continent.

The owner of the forest also has a duty to take measures to reduce the possibility of the forest damage and restrict its distribution to monitor forest situation and to notify the State Forest Service of determined forest damage.

4.3 The State party notes that as far as the Paadarskaidi area is concerned, the National Forest  Park Service carried out increment felling (preparative cutting) totalling some 200 300 hectares between 1998 and 2000. The distance between the Angeli area and the Paadarskaidi area is about 30 kilometres.
