Samiskt skogsutnyttjande, dimensionsavverkningar och naturvärden
In order to understand the human impact on today's remaining "virgin" forest and to develop sensible management strategies for future reserves, it is necessary to know how these forests have developed. This knowledge can be gained by using forest history analysis. here are large areas...
