Growing attention is being given to forest, agriculture and wood based bio-products in both policy and science, because these products are renewable, biodegradable, capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, have a wide range of utilization and thus, support the main goal to reach a sustainable and a climate neutral economy and society. However, the environment is already affected by significant changes in climate patterns worldwide which leads to the use of more challenging, more complex and thus more expensive biomass and bioenergy supply chains; for example when machines cannot access forest stands due to wet summers or winters and the operations must be carried out motor manually and with cable-yarding systems. The core question addressed within this special article collection is how climate change impacts will affect forest operations in the future. The two research articles deal with a) monoxide and nitrogen dioxide emissions generated by the engines of catalytic and conventional chainsaws and with b) forest road planning, i.e. spur roads were constructed and evaluated with regard to the effectiveness of water drain. Both topics gain in importance on operational and planning levels. Approaches like the ones presented should be considered in upcoming research and practice in order to assure sustainable forest management for the provision of forest ecosystem services.

IJFE专题文章集“森林经营在气候变化影响森林中的作用”介绍

政策和科学都越来越关注森林、农业和木质生物产品，因为这些产品是可再生的、可生物降解的、从大气中捕获二氧化碳、用途广泛，因此支持实现以下目标的主要目标：实现可持续和气候中性的经济和社会。然而，环境已经受到全球气候模式的重大变化的影响，这导致使用更具挑战性、更复杂、因此更昂贵的生物质和生物能源供应链；例如，由于夏季或冬季潮湿，机器无法进入林分，并且必须手动和使用电缆码放系统进行操作时。本专题文章集中解决的核心问题是气候变化的影响将如何影响未来的森林经营。这两篇研究文章涉及 a) 催化链锯和传统链锯的发动机产生的一氧化碳和二氧化氮排放，以及 b) 森林道路规划，即建造支路并评估排水的有效性。这两个主题在运营和规划层面都变得越来越重要。在即将进行的研究和实践中，应考虑采用上述方法，以确保可持续森林管理以提供森林生态系统服务。修建了支路，并评估了排水的有效性。这两个主题在运营和规划层面都变得越来越重要。在即将进行的研究和实践中，应考虑采用上述方法，以确保可持续森林管理以提供森林生态系统服务。修建了支路，并评估了排水的有效性。这两个主题在运营和规划层面都变得越来越重要。在即将进行的研究和实践中，应考虑采用上述方法，以确保可持续森林管理以提供森林生态系统服务。
