TL;DR: In this article, the impacts of expected global climate change on the potential and realized distributions of a representative sample of 69 individual Angiosperm species in Amazonia were simulated from 1990 to 2095.

TL;DR: This paper suggests how the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) community can progressively make use of a flexible framework of analytical approaches that have been recently developed by scientific research to allow a standardized but flexible use of indicator sets adapted to specific objectives or desertification issues relevant for implementing the Convention.

TL;DR: Tropical rain forests and deforestation the causes of deforestation logging practices people, policies and forests trends in deforestation and logging trends in tropical rain forests as discussed by the authors Environmental impact of deforestation and mining techniques to control deforestation policies to control progress and prospects.

TL;DR: This paper shows how insights from models can help in selecting and integrating indicators, interpreting synthetic trends, incorporating cross-scalar processes, representing spatio-temporal variation, and evaluating uncertainty.

TL;DR: In this paper, it is estimated that reforestation of a third of all degraded lands in dry or montane areas and afforestation of about a fifth of the degraded area of croplands in dry regions (61.5 million ha) would prevent projected fuelwood deficits in those regions by the year 2000.
