DEGRADED FOREST RESTORATION IN VIETNAM: Ecology, Silviculture, and Sustainable Management - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

This volume offers a rare combination of scientific rigor and practical relevance in tropical forest restoration, presenting an integrated and deeply evidence-based framework for transforming degraded natural forests into productive, resilient landscapes. Drawing on extensive field data across Vietnam’s three major ecological regions, the authors move beyond descriptive analysis to deliver a coherent system that links ecology, silviculture, policy, and rural livelihoods in a way that is both technically robust and operationally realistic. What distinguishes this work is its clear demonstration that ecological restoration and economic productivity are not opposing goals but can be mutually reinforcing when grounded in appropriate management design. The long-term silvicultural trials and carefully evaluated multi-use models provide compelling, field-tested evidence that degraded forests can recover within a single management cycle while generating tangible income for forest-dependent communities. Written with the authority of practitioners and the precision of scientists, this book serves as both a reference and a roadmap, offering actionable insights for researchers, policymakers, and forest managers working at the frontlines of sustainable forest management in the tropics. The authors of this volume include Nguyen Toan Thang, Tran Van Do, Dao Trung Duc, Trinh Ngoc Bon, Nguyen Trong Minh, Vu Tien Lam, Tran Hoang Quy, Truong Trong Khoi, Nguyen Van Tuan, Pham Tien Dung, Nguyen Huy Hoang, Hoang Van Thanh, and Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong, whose collective expertise underpins the depth and authority of this work.
