Résumé :
|
The intent is that the full report will serve both as a detailed explanation of the results of the LUCID Project and also as a type of desk reference for those exploring the idea of FMU- scale sustainability monitoring. Recognizing that different types of readers will want to focus on different aspects of the report, we have used a range of different organization and presentation techniques including sidebars, a glossary and acronym list; electronic hyperlinks to help you navigate through the document; chapter outlines and summaries; and icons associated with material appropriate to different interest areas. A User's Guide describing some of these navigational tools in more detail can be found at the front of this report. The report is organized in 5 sections: Section 1 sets the context for the LUCID Project with discussions of sustainability, a systems-approach to sustainability, and issues of scale. Section 2 presents a brief overview of the methods used in the project including its collaborative and interdisciplinary aspects. Section 3 presents the origin, development and testing of the criteria and indicators through the six forest teams and is supported by the LUCID C&I Resource Database CD. This CD includes a comprehensive database of the descriptions and details for the principles, criteria, indicators, and measures; a starting conceptual model of the C&I built within NetWeaver; and copies of the other report appendixes that support components of the report and testing process. Section 4 addresses approaches, tools, and techniques for analyzing and assessing sustainability. Section 5 concludes with a discussion of the relationship of FMU-scale sustainability monitoring to other monitoring and forest management processes at a range of scales, recommendations for research and development, and recommendations for implementing a F'MU-scale sustainability monitoring program.
