An optimization approach for multiperiod production planning in a sawmill
(Elsevier, 2018-12-01)
Forest industry plays an important role in the national economic and social context, due to the production volume with significant impact in the region where it is located (northeast of Argentina). Sawmill production ...
Integrated approach for the bucking and production planning problems in forest industry
(Elsevier, 2019-06-09)
The appropriate integration among production activities is a key factor for the development of the forest industry in the northeast of Argentina. Sawmills are one of the main logs consumers. However, production planning ...
Neotropical xenarthrans : a dataset of occurrence of xenarthran species in the neotropics
(Ecological Society of America, 2019-07-01)
Xenarthrans -anteaters, sloths, and armadillos- have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and ...
Prioritizing areas for primate conservation in Argentina
(Diversity, 2022-11-15)
Argentina lies within the southernmost distributional range of five neotropical primates, the brown howler monkey Alouatta guariba, the black-and-gold howler monkey Alouatta caraya, the black-horned capuchin Sapajus nigritus, ...
Simple Process-Based Simulators for Generating Spatial Patterns of Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: A Review and Introduction to the G-RaFFe Model
(Simon Thrush, National Institute of Water & Atmospheric Research, New Zealand, 2013-05-28)
Landscape simulators are widely applied in landscape ecology for generating landscape patterns. These models can be divided into two categories: pattern-based models that generate spatial patterns irrespective of the ...
Edge effects and their influence on habitat suitability calculations : a continuous approach applied to birds of the Atlantic forest
(British Ecological Society, 2012-01-18)
1. The suitability of human-modified habitats for native species and the response of species to habitat edges are two important ecological processes that affect species and communities in fragmented landscapes. However, ...
Stochastic forestry harvest planning under soil compaction conditions
(Journal of Environmental Management, 2021-06-06)
We present a study of annual forestry harvesting planning considering the risk of compaction generated by the transit of heavy forestry machinery. Soil compaction is a problem that occurs when the soil loses its natural ...
Pine log Price Changes in South America : a comparison of Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay markets
(Journal of Forest Economics, 2022-02-20)
We analysed the degree of price cointegration among pine log markets in northeast Argentina, Paraná State of Brazil, and Uruguay by examining price series over the period 2008--2020. We evaluated the cointegration of price ...
Livestock grazing impact differently on the functional diversity of dung beetles depending on the regional context in subtropical forests
(Scientific Reports, 2022-01-31)
The replacement of native forest by cattle pastures reduces functional diversity; however, little is known about whether the changes depend on regional variation. Dung beetles are one of the most diverse and functionally ...
Sistemas de monitoreo a largo plazo, una deuda para la conservación y manejo de los bosques nativos
(Argentina Forestal, 2019-03-23)
Los bosques nativos se están transformando drásticamente debido al cambio de uso del suelo, cambio climático, sobreexplotación, ganadería, incendios, invasión de especies exóticas y cambios en procesos ecológicos (ejemplo: ...
