Tapping the potential of restoring disturbed tropical forests

Since the 1980s most deforestation globally has occurred in tropical countries – Africa, South America and Asia. The high rate of deforestation and degradation contributes to the disappearance of 13 million hectares of tropical forests each year.
The effects of deforestation have, over time, led to immense areas of secondary and degraded forests.
This fall, at the 2019 IUFRO World Congress in Curitiba, Brazil a session entitled: Will active restoration of Secondary and Degraded Forests (SDFs) help to address sustainably the gap between wood demand and supply? will examine ways to address the challenge of restoration in secondary and degraded tropical forests.
The session, organized by Dr. Marie Ange Ngo Bieng and Dr. Plinio Sist, of CIRAD (Dr. Sist is also Coordinator of IUFRO's Research Group Tropical and Subtropical Silviculture) and Dr. Bryan Finegan of CATIE, (and Deputy Coordinator of IUFRO's Forest Biodiversity Research Group) will focus on restoring SDFs as a way to protect the remaining natural tropical forests and also as a way to address the growing gap between wood demand and supply in a sustainable fashion.
There are several partly overlapping definitions of secondary and degraded forests. Secondary forests are forests regenerating largely through natural processes after significant human and-or natural disturbance resulting in major differences in forest structure and-or species composition with respect to nearby primary forests on similar sites. More generally, a degraded forest delivers a reduced supply of goods and services from a given site and maintains only limited biological diversity.
The reasons for concentrating on tropical forest restoration are simple, Dr. Ngo Bieng said. Tropical forests are both crucial and endangered. They account for nearly half of the world's forest ecosystems – 1,770 million hectares. They draw in carbon dioxide and emit oxygen and have, for good reason, been called the "lungs of the planet".
Some 50-70% of species living in terrestrial environments are housed in those forests, which play a crucial role in providing, among other things, vital ecosystem services, drinking water, and woody and non-timber forest products.
And about 2/3 of that forest area is considered SDF, so restoring and utilizing SDFs in sustainable, productive ways makes a lot of sense.
"SDFs supply firewood and non-wood forest products but have rarely been considered for their potential for timber production," Dr. Ngo Bieng said. "Although they have been heavily exploited in the past and currently are very poor in terms of commercial timber stocks, growing commercial timber trees in SDFs is possible, though variable, depending on local conditions.
"But," she went on, "these tropical SDFs could contribute more to timber supply and forest environmental services. We propose concepts for sustainable timber production in SDFs in the tropics. It adds value to these types of often-neglected forests."
Dr. Ngo Bieng said their session will look at three main things:
* the increase in future wood demand worldwide and the related urgent need to find alternative sustainable wood sources;
* the potential of SDFs in that context and the current challenges related to wood production in tropical SDFs in different countries; and
* case studies of active restoration associated with successful wood production and commercialization of timber in SDFs for higher value end products.
The session organizers recognize that there are significant challenges between them and a successful restoration initiative. Among them: re-establishing productive forest systems where there are serious biophysical limitations; initiating relevant silvicultural practices for effective restoration; weak institutional frameworks and-or a lack of sectoral policies; and competing visions of how the landscape should be used.
Dr. Ngo Bieng is hopeful that the "international context" which has underlined an increasing demand for wood products can provide opportunities to move forward. The increase in demand for wood calls for sustainable alternative wood production.
"The remaining logged and production forests will not, by themselves, be able to fulfill the increased demand for tropical wood products while also playing a major role in providing environmental services," she said.
"We urgently need alternative sustainable wood sources."
She noted that her colleague, Dr. Sist, is involved in the Tropical managed Forests Observatory (TmFO) initiative. "It's a pan-tropical network examining the long-term effects of logging on tropical forest ecosystems.
"Their findings will provide policy-makers and foresters guidance in sustainable forest management and conservation of tropical forests. That knowledge will certainly be useful for the future management of productive SDFs," she said.

Open post-doc/ingeneer Research Scientist position
Spatial analyst on geospatial global remote sensing time series
1year position within the European Space Agency FIRE CCI projet
Context : FIRE CCI is the climate change initiative project from the European Space Agency launched in 2010. LSCE has been involved in the global Burned Area product task FIRE CCI since the early stage of Phase 1, and, as part of the climate assessment group, evaluated the benefits of new BA products in the DGVM ORCHIDEE and developped a new approach based on fire patch morphology dervied from the finest resolution of the product. Generating burnt patches from pixel level information requires the processing of time series of burn date maps developped by the consortium, to aggregate pixel into patches and characterise the morphological of each fire patch (more than 8million Patches globally over the entire period). All these advances were published in Laurent et al. 2018 (Nature Scientific Data) for the global database and Laurent et al. 2019 (Biogeosciences) for a global assessment of fire spread processes.
Objectives of the Post doc :
FIRE CCI phase 3 is now launched for the period 2019-2021 with the goal of further assessment and use of Burned area products delivered in phase 2. The LSCE group is in charge of continuing the fire patch task initiated in Phase 2. Fire patch identification codes and patch morphology characterisation codes have been developped with R cran, respectively following a flood-fill algorithm (pixels aggregated according to neighboring burn dates) and landscape ecology tools for patch description. The increasing resolution of pixel resolution (from 500m for MCD64A1 MODIS data, to 250m FIRE_CCI51 and now 20m resolution for the FIRE_CCI small fire database in Africa from sentinel Sensor) now requires code optimisation and algorithm parallel programming for a more efficient processing time. The post doc will be in charge of adapting, improving and developping the previous codes (R cran and python for) in collaboration with P. Ciais (LSCE) and F. Mouillot (IRD Montpellier) to deliver new datasets based on FIRE CCI burnd area products, format final products with metadata information for data repository and data paper, and explore the benefits of fire shape information for global pyrogeography.
Required Skills :
The candidate will be fluent in writing and speaking english, with serious skills in big geospatial data processing, preferentially programming in R or other major languages, parallel programming and use of calculation clusters, and data quality checking. Geospatial analysis skills, image processing or landscape ecology knowledge are welcome for innovative approaches to develop in the project. Efficient writing skills in scientific papers is mandatory as author or contributor to common papers.
Candidate could be based in LSCE (gif/yvette, France) or CEFE Montpellier (with remote access to LSCE calculation facilities). Gross salary will be 2.600-2800€/month (before taxes).

* Importance of forests and trees for climate protection highlighted
at R20 Austrian World Summit
* Special focus on Africa, where particularly high impacts of climate
change are expected
* New Austrian initiatives for promoting science cooperation and
networking with African partners towards greater sustainability
(Vienna, 28 May 2019) Forests are the largest terrestrial carbon store.
They can sustainably produce woody biomass to replace fossil fuels; and
solid wood products can substitute other energy intensive materials. In
addition to their crucial role in mitigating the worst impacts of
climate change, forests provide a multitude of ecosystem goods and
services that are vital to human well-being and to the protection of
biodiversity. Climate change, however, also severely threatens forests
and trees. It is adding to a range of other pressures on forest
ecosystems, such as population pressure and the increasing need for
agricultural land.
A breakout session at the R20 Austrian Climate Summit 2019 focuses
specifically on the role of forests in Africa, where many people are
highly dependent on forest goods and services and, consequently, most
vulnerable to climate change. The event is organized jointly by the
Austrian Federal Ministry for Sustainability and Tourism (BMNT), the
Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF),
and the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO),
and takes place on 29 May at the University of Vienna. Three renowned
experts from Africa will talk with Austrian representatives from
government and research about the opportunities and challenges for
people and the environment related to forests, trees and forest products
in the face of climate change and about collaboration with Austrian
partners.
Maria Patek, Director-General for Forestry and Sustainability, Austrian
Federal Ministry for Sustainability and Tourism (BMNT), underlines
Austria's global responsibility for addressing climate change and the
sustainable management of forests, "Fostering cooperation on
forest-related matters and building strong networks is essential to our
approach. We believe that our strong focus on knowledge sharing,
capacity building and facilitating networks for exchange accelerates the
impact on the fight against climate change." This is why Austria also
hosts the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO).
With over 600 member organizations in 126 countries IUFRO is a network
that fosters science collaboration worldwide for underpinning sound
decisions on global sustainability challenges.
New instruments which Austria has developed in support of research
cooperation and networking between Austrian and African academic
institutions are pursuing the same goal on a broader scale.
"In addition to bilateral cooperation programs between Austria and
African countries such as South Africa, we are now also utilizing the
new global program for 'Development Research Cooperation', in which most
African countries can participate. Furthermore, in cooperation with the
University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, and our
mobility agency OeAD GmbH, we will start to build up the
Austrian-African research network 'Africa-UniNet' later this year with
the aim to create a basis for long-term cooperation and dialogue", says
Barbara Weitgruber, Director General for Scientific Research and
International Relations of the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education,
Science and Research (BMBWF).
All these initiatives share the common goal of contributing towards
overcoming challenges locally and globally and, thus, towards achieving
the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations.
