Authors  provide an up-to-date and insightful review of important scientific findings and conclude with practical recommendations for the modern forester in Southeast Asia. Several chapters provide compelling discussions about commonly neglected aspects of tropical forestry, including the impact of historical dynamics of climate change, anthropogenic threats to genetic viability, and the important role of wildlife in maintaining genetic diversity. These discussions will promote a deeper appreciation of not only the economic value of forests, but also their mystery and intangible values. The silvicultural industry in Southeast Asia is a major contributor to the regional economy but the connection between scientific research and the application and development of policy could be improved upon. This book will help bridge that gap. This book will prove beneficial reading for forestry students, professional forest managers, and policy makers, who do not have technical training in genetics. It is also intended for non-specialists who are involved in the tropical timber industry, from the local forest manager to the international timber purchasing agent. 410 0$aAdvances in Asian Human-Environmental Research,$x1879-7180 606 $aForestry management 606 $aPlant genetics 606 $aTrees 606 $aForestry Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22016 606 $aPlant Genetics and Genomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32020 606 $aTree Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22024 615 0$aForestry management. 615 0$aPlant genetics. 615 0$aTrees. 615 14$aForestry Management. 615 24$aPlant Genetics and Genomics. 615 24$aTree Biology. 676 $a634.90 676 $a634.90680959 702 $aWickneswari$b Ratnam$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCannon$b Chuck$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821482003321 996 $aManaging the Future of Southeast Asia's Valuable Tropical Rainforests$94093009 997 $aUNINA
