However, differences in the scale of forest influence generated from aggregates compared to unlogged forests surrounding harvested areas have not been tested.
Soil complex classes have been mapped at a scale of 1 50,000 (HNUG 2002), the scale of forest inventory maps was 1 50,000 and that of the site survey maps was 1 25,000 (HMULF 2002).
We found no evidence that overall herpetofaunal diversity was negatively impacted by even-aged, uneven-aged, or no-harvest forest management in the Missouri Ozarks at the scale of forest compartments over this time period.
Widespread habitat degradation and uncharacteristic fire, insect, and disease outbreaks in forests across the western United States have led to highly publicized calls to increase the pace and scale of forest restoration.
Despite greater awareness around of the world of the impacts of deforestation, the scale of forest loss since 2000 has been significant - data from Google and the University of Maryland says the world lost 230 million hectares of trees between 2000 and 2012.
Two alternative scenarios were designed to describe management approaches oriented towards nature protection (scenario B) or wood production (scenario C) and compared to scenario A. Management scenarios were simulated at the scale of forest management units over a 20-year time period.
