The introduction of this tree to the western US to combat river erosion backfired, displacing native species and disrupting fragile ecosystems. When talking about ecological restoration, planting trees often seems like one of the most obvious solutions to recover a degraded landscape. However, in fragile ecosystems, an intervention intended to help can end up generating new problems if the relationships between species, water and soil are not taken into account.
This tree was planted by millions in Spain and scientists now link it to the loss of biodiversity For decades it was the tree chosen to repopulate forests and supply the paper industry.
The Ministry of Production of Corrientes trained 120 forestry workers from the Garabí Group in Gobernador Virasoro, with the aim of strengthening knowledge and response capabilities against rural and forest fires.
Only three of the 22 native forest fragments studied on the coast of the Maule Region showed no signs of human intervention during the last four decades. The research, developed by specialists from the University of Chile and other institutions, combined field work with information from the Landsat satellite program and the GEDI sensor, two Earth observation tools developed with the participation of NASA, to reconstruct the history and structure of these ecosystems.
Promoting wood in Sustainable Construction and Architecture We invite you to the 3rd ExpoMadera Entre Ríos Workshop at BSAS
A new export from Entre Ríos began this Saturday with the entry of the African Quail ship to the port of Concepción del Uruguay. The grocery store began loading pine and eucalyptus logs and will later move to Ibicuy to complete some 30,000 tons that will be sent to India.
