Fishes and Forestry

Fisheries and forestry share many of the same environmental requirements and functional processes essential for their long-term sustainability. Understanding and wise sustainable use of fishery and forestry resources depends on sound and fairly complete knowledge of the biology and ecology of the fish and trees found in the watersheds jointly supporting both. Including case studies from all over the globe, this book covers the interaction between these two vital natural resources, looking at the contemporary situation in many important ecosystems and how new practices will affect interactions between these commercially important and environmentally sensitive areas.
