Synopsis

Discover how Norway’s forests are shaped by climate, geography, and careful management—and what this means for the timber trade and woodland restoration.

This book surveys the general features of Norway, the distribution of forest trees, and the conditions that determine their growth. It also covers how glaciers, heat, moisture, soil, and exposure influence forests, and what that means for timber production, transport, and forest policy.

- See how wind, weather, and coastal exposure affect forest conditions and operations
- Learn how geology and soil type influence where different trees thrive
- Understand historical and practical approaches to sylviculture and forest management
- Explore the structure of Norway’s forest administration, trade, and ship-building connections

Ideal for readers of forest science, history of forestry, and practical woodland management.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Spring of 1877, while measures were being taken for the formation of an Arboretum in Edinburgh, I issued a Pamphlet entitled The Schools ofF orestry in Europe :a Plea for the, Creation of aS chool ofF orestry inC onnection with the Arboretum atE dinburgh. After it was made known that arrangements were being carried out for the formation of an International Exhibition of forest products, and other objects of interest connected with forestry, in Edinburgh, with a view to promoting the moyement for the establishment of aN ational School ofF orestry inS cotland, and with a view of furthering and stimulating a greater improvement in the scientific management of woods inS cotland, and the sister countries, which has manifested itself during recent years, the Council of theE ast Lothian Naturalists Club resolved on having a course of lectures or popular readings on some subject connected with forestry, which might enable them and others better to profit by visits to the projected Exhibition, and which should be open to the public at a moderate charge.
