Draft:Annals of Silvicultural Research

The "Annals of Silvicultural Research" is peer-reviewed journal that focuses on publishing original research articles, review papers, and technical notes related to silviculture. Silviculture is a branch of forestry concerned with the cultivation and management of forest trees for timber production, ecological restoration, conservation, and other purposes. The journal is published by CREA - Research Centre for Foresty and Wood and it belongs to the CREA Journals periodicals collection.

The journal covers a wide range of topics within silviculture, including:


 * 1) Forest ecology: Articles exploring the interactions between forest ecosystems, including studies on biodiversity, nutrient cycling, and ecosystem dynamics.
 * 2) Forest management practices: Research on various silvicultural techniques, such as thinning, regeneration methods, stand improvement, and sustainable forest management strategies.
 * 3) Tree physiology: Studies investigating the physiological processes of trees, including growth, reproduction, responses to environmental stressors, and adaptation mechanisms.
 * 4) Forest genetics: Research on the genetic diversity, breeding, and selection of tree species for desirable traits, such as growth rate, wood quality, and resistance to pests and diseases.
 * 5) Sustainable forest development: Articles focusing on the integration of economic, social, and environmental considerations in forest management planning and decision-making.

The journal aims to facilitate communication and collaboration among researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and other stakeholders involved in the management and conservation of forest resources.
