TBI Cameroon
Overall forest land inventory and qualitative ecological
land evaluation
(ENDED)
|
|
| Objective: |
| to provide a scientific
basis for decisions regarding sustainable land use alternatives
for the Tropenbos-Cameroon research area. This will be realised
through the development of a land evaluation methodology for
humid tropical forests. |
| Output: |
|
The requested methodology has been used to draw a landscape
ecological map based on biophysical and disturbance (land
use) criteria. Suitability maps for flora and fauna conservation,
for the production of NTFP and timber, for shifting cultivation
and for permanent agriculture (five crops) are published.
The maps have been used in the preparation of the MMP and
FMP
