Forest Nature Conservation Guidelines

Providing practical advice on conservation to those involved in forestry, this book considers two important areas - the maintenance and enhancement of nature conservation in existing woodlands and forest, and the development of new conservation projects.

Even in a country as small as Britain the range of woodland types and the consequent potential for nature conservation is wide. These guidelines provide practical conservation advice to those involved in forestry. They look at two general areas, the maintenance and enhancement of the nature conservation value of existing woodlands and forest, and the opportunities to develop nature conservation in new planting. More detailed information on the importance of particular habitats and forestry practices are discussed and conservation in different woodland types explored.
