Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigation of Deforestation on the Runoff-Peak by KINFIL ModelAlireza Mardookhpour, Leila OoshaksaraieProblem statement: In present study the KINFIL model was used for the catchment management, including the investigation of deforestation on predict flood runoff assessment with a significant precision. Approach: The KINFIL rainfall-runoff model has been used for the reconstruction of the rainfall runoff events in agricultural land use. The implementation of the KINFIL model supported by GIS proved to be … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 24 Dec 2011 · 6,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreventing Deforestation in the Indian Landscape Through Neural Network-Based Intelligence Using Sound Event Detection and Advanced Feature Extraction TechniquesSallauddin Mohmmad, Suresh Kumar SanampudiForests play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance, regulating the climate, and conserving biodiversity. However, India’s forest landscape has witnessed significant changes between 1980 and 2024 due to deforestation, afforestation, and evolving conservation strategies. To address the challenges associated with forest monitoring, we proposed a model based on Sound Event Detection using a dataset comprising four classes: chainsaw sounds, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 20 Jan 2026 · 1,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWillingness to Pay for Wood Work Enterprises to Recover Deforested Softwood Trees in Eastern EthiopiaDaniel Habtamu Hailemichael, Lemma Zemedu, Jemma HajiThis study was carried out to find out the economic value of forests by woodwork enterprises for the reforestation of Softwood Pine trees in Eastern Ethiopia, namely Dire Dawa administrative council, Harari regional state, and Deder district of East Hararghe Zone. Forests in Eastern Ethiopia were the major sources of softwood pine logs. Nowadays, some commercially important pine species are … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 16 May 2023 · 6,111 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStrengthening Conservation in the Tropics: The Water Canon of Costa RicaFrancisco Benavides, John N. VeenstraProblem statement: The tropics contain primary forests with a significant value for society, as they provide services such as carbon sequestration, soil conservation, bio-prospecting, water storage and others. Competing land uses have not favored conservation during the last several decades and therefore the need for an effective public policy instrument to curtail forest loss is evident. Approach: This article analyzed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 6,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Learning and Image Analytics for Forest Land Management: Classification, and Object DetectionDevam Dixit, Aditya Bhavsar, Shreyas Jani, Nilesh YadavRapid urbanization and industrialization have contributed to deforestation which has led to a severe degradation of the environment and biodiversity loss. Traditional field survey methods are not applicable in the monitoring of large forest areas due to the fact that such methods are manual, costly and time consuming as well as subject to human error. The current methods of remote … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 26 Mar 2026 · 1,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Empirical Investigation of the Pollution Haven-Halo Nexus in Eastern and Southern AfricaPaul KauluThis study looks into the relationship between trade and pollution in Eastern and Southern Africa from 1977 to 2016. This timeframe is particularly relevant as it was marked by rising CO₂ emissions despite major climate agreements such as the Kyoto Protocol (1997), Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+, 2007), as well as the Paris Agreement (2015). Using time-series … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2026 · 2,917 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA STOCHASTIC FRONTIER APPROACH FOR MEASURING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF SMALL-SCALE IMPROVED SALT PRODUCTION IN GUINEABoubacar Siddighi Balde, Hajime Kobayashi, Makoto Nohmi et al.Salt production is a major driving force behind the loss of mangrove in Guinea. As the traditional salt production causes increasing deforestation, the intensive exploitation of mangrove resources has now reached a critical threshold. Therefore, improved techniques using sunlight as the source of energy has been introduced as an alternative to the traditional salt production techniques which consumes a significant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 14 May 2014 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatus of Soil Microbial Population, Enzymatic Activity and Biomass of Selected Natural, Secondary and Rehabilitated ForestsK. S. Daljit Singh, A. Arifin, O. Radziah et al.Substantial clearance of forests and conversion of forest into various land use types contribute to deterioration of soil fertility and associated nutrients loss. Soils from natural and rehabilitated forest in Chikus Forest Reserve and also enrichment planting forest and secondary forest of Tapah Hill Forest Reserve, Perak, Malaysia were selected in order to assess the influence of land use change … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing Forest Plantation Productivity of Exotic and Indigenous Species on Degraded Secondary ForestsYetti Heryati, Arifin Abdu, Mohd Noor Mahat et al.Problem Statement: There is general agreement that human activities such as deforestation and land use change to other land use types have contributed to degraded secondary forests or forestland and increases the emission of greenhouse gases which ultimately led to global climate change. An establishment of forest plantation in particular is regarded as an important approach for sequestering carbon. However, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 10,518 accessesView PDFCite
