Forest biomass harvesting guidelines help ensure the ecological sustainability of forest
residue harvesting for bioenergy and bioproducts, and hence contribute to social license for …

The amount and dynamics of forest dead wood (both standing and downed) has been
quantified by a variety of approaches throughout the forest science and ecology literature …

Critical errors exist in some methodologies applied to evaluate the effects of using forest
biomass for bioenergy on atmospheric greenhouse gas emissions. The most common error …

Climate mitigation requires emissions to peak then decline within two decades, but many
mitigation models include 100 EJ or more of bioenergy, ignoring emissions from biomass …

Numerous studies on the techno-economic and life cycle assessment of microalgal
biodiesel production are available in the literature, and an overwhelming majority of such …

Background: Observational studies suggest that exposure to wood smoke is associated with
a variety of adverse health effects in humans. Objective: We aimed to summarise evidence …

Understanding the environmental implications of activated carbon (AC) produced from
diverse biomass feedstocks is critical for biomass screening and process optimization for …

Activated carbon (AC) developed and marketed for water and gas purification is traditionally
made from hard coals (fossil-based materials). However, increasing awareness of …

Tree biomass is typically estimated using statistical models. This review highlights five
limitations of most tree biomass models, which include the following:(1) biomass data are …

Abstract In the United States, intensively managed forests (IMFs) comprise approximately
9%(27.9 million ha) of total forest area. These forests are primarily in highly productive areas …
