Abstract

Research and development provide the scientific basis for adaptive, sustainable management of forests. Research is critical to understanding and improving forest conditions, determining compatible human uses, and developing technologies that sustain the availability and productivity of market and nonmarket forest goods and services. This indicator measures the development and application of research and technologies for sustainable forest management.
