Sustainable forest development – challenges from the perspective of the federal authorities (essay) Economic structural change, climate change, the energy “turnaround” and rampant population growth are all megatrends that influence forest development directly or indirectly. In this essay, the authors investigate the question as to the challenges presented by the constitutional mandate to “ensure sustainable forest development” and how the federal authorities aim to meet them. Together with the cantons, the federal authorities will deploy a mix of instruments in the future (e.g. financial incentives, regulations, development of decision aids, etc.), as they did before. However, some instruments need specific development so that the forest can fulfill its wide-ranging functions for future generations and in the context of changing conditions.

La empresa forestal Integral viñales es una de las 27 empresas forestales existentes en Cuba. Se destaca la formación de pinares, que ocupa 35 mil hectáreas entre plantaciones y bosques naturales. Las dos especies de pino predominantes son el Pinus caribaea var. caribaea y el Pinus tropicalis. El presente documento tiene por objetivo formular una propuesta destinada a elaborar una nueva estrategia, que incluya la valoración total de los bienes y servicios que sus bosques aportan al sector del turismo y a la comunidad en general

Sustainable Forest Development

Forest and conservation managers as decision‐makers must deal with many competing criteria in order to find optimal solutions which best describe sustainable forest development. The aim of the study was to elaborate a framework for forest fragmentation‐based forest administrative area ranking in order to support sustainable forest development. In this paper there is presented and discussed a two‐stage multiple‐criteria spatial decision‐support system (MC–SDSS), employing it to locate a potential forest administrative area under different forest fragmentation conditions. Lithuanian state forest enterprises were selected as forest administrative areas and used as alternative options for ranking. Amount of forest areas, representing different forest fragmentation components (edge, perforated, undetermined, interior, patch, and transitional) in each state forest enterprise area, was taken as a criterion for alternative evaluation. Calculations of criterion significance were performed. Ranks for state forest enterprises were defined using technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) and simple additive weighting (SAW) method. Results of this study suggest that forest fragmentation‐based ranking of forest administrative regions is so important that it could potentially influence ecological processes during recurring forest development. Santrauka Mišku ir saugomu teritoriju valdytojai, kaip sprendimu priemejai, ieškodami optimaliu darnios miško pletros sprendimu, dažnai susiduria su ivairiais, dažniausiai prieštaringai vertinamais, kriterijais. Šios studijos tikslas yra sukurti miško frag‐mentacija pagristus mišku administraciniu teritoriju rangavimo metodikos metmenis darnia miško pletra lemiančiu sprendimu priemimui palengvinti. Pateikiama ir apibendrinama dvieju lygiu erdviniu daugiatiksliu sprendimu paramos sistema (MC‐SDSS), skirta potencialiems mišku administraciniams vienetams su atitinkama miško fragmentacijos situacija nustatyti. Tyrimui kaip vertinimo alternatyvos buvo pasirinktos Lietuvos mišku urediju teritorijos. Alternatyvu vertinimo kriterijumi buvo pasirinktas skirtingu fragmentacijos tipu (miško pakraščio, prasiskverbiančio miško, nenustatyto miško, ištiso miško, retu miško želiniu ir pereinamosios miško stadijos) miško plotas kiekvienoje mišku uredijoje. Atlikti kriteriju reikšmingumo skaičiavimai. Prioritetu eile mišku uredijoms buvo nustatyta taikant iprastinio informacijos lygio TOPSIS ir SAWmetodus. Tyrimai parode, kad miško fragmentacija pagristas mišku administraciniu vienetu rangavimas yra svarbus ir potencialiai gali tureti itakos ekologiniams procesams, vykdant periodinius miško veisimo bei atnaujinimo darbus. Резюме Управляющие лесными хозяйствами и охраняемыми территориями как лица, ответственные за поиск и принятие оптимальных решений, способствующих сбалансированному развитию леса, нередко встречаются с разными, чаще всего противоречивыми критериями оценки. Целью настоящего исследования было создание каркаса методики ранжирования лесных административных территорий на основании фрагментации леса, предназначенной для облегчения принятия решений, обуславливающих сбалансированное развитие леса. В статье представлена и обобщена пространственная многоцелевая двухуровневая (MC-SDSS) система помощи в принятии решений, предназначенная для определения потенциальных лесных административных единиц с соответствующей ситуацией фрагментации леса. Для исследования были выбраны территории лесничеств Литвы как альтернативный вариант оценки. В каждом лесничестве были выбраны участки леса с разными типами фрагментации (окраины леса, проникающего леса, неопределенного леса, сплошного леса, пятнистого покрытия лесом и леса переходной стадии) в качестве критериев оценки альтернативных вариантов. Проведены подсчеты значимости критериев. Методами обычного уровня информации TOPSIS и SAW был определен ряд приоритетов. Исследования показали, что ранжирование административных единиц, основанное на фрагментации леса, является важным, так как оно потенциально может оказывать влияние на экологические процессы, происходящие при проведении периодических работ по созданию и обновлению леса.

Definition Of

Starting with a brief definition of the notion of ecological stability,the article goes on to describe how this issue is taken into account in forest development plans. We show that a surprising number of animal and plant species are affected by the planning. Depending on the ecological situation and the or ganisms under consideration, different stability characteristics are important. As not all ecological situations can reasonably be considered in forest development planning, we give various suggestions for improvement as to how the concept of ecological stability can better be taken into consideration in future regional forestry plans.
