Tropical Forestry

This text is part of a series which covers a wide range of agricultural and related subjects which should be relevant in all parts of the tropical world. "Tropical Forestry" brings together information on the tropical environment, vegetation and tree physiology, and leads on to the principles of silvicultural systems, including chapters on natural regeneration. It provides training for sound and sustainable forest management, and should be of interest to students in temperate regions who intend to work in tropical regions in careers related to rural development, and to students in tropical areas taking courses in agriculture, forestry, ecology, rural science or geography.
