Research Abstract |
The effective utilization of timber is important for sustainable use and management of forest resources. However, recent flagging timber prices as well as damages by natural disturbances such as typhoon have accelerated the abandonment of forest management such as thinning and planting which in turn is threatening the sustainable use of forest resources. Projecting the risk of natural disturbance damages and forest management abandonment will provide important information for conducting sustainable forest management. In this study, through an interdisciplinary approach, we conducted a wind tunnel simulation, statistical modeling, inter-temporal spatial optimization modeling, and with use of geographic information system (GIS), we examined the risk hedge sustainable resource management that could stimulate mitigation of the risk of natural disturbance and management abandonment.
