Forest Monitoring: An Introduction -- Pan-European Forest Monitoring: An Overview -- Forest and Related-Ecosystem Monitoring in Acid Deposition Monitoring Network in East Asia -- Forest Monitoring Methods in the United States and Canada: An Overview -- A Quality Assurance Framework for Designing Forest Monitoring Programs -- Concepts and Design Principles Adopted in the International Cooperative Program on the Assessment and Monitoring of Air Pollution Effects on Forests (ICP Forests) -- Large-scale Pan-European Forest Monitoring Network: A Statistical Perspective for Designing and Combining Country Estimates, Example for defoliation -- Assessment of Tree Condition -- Tree Phenology -- Tree Growth Measurements in Long-Term Forest Monitoring in Europe -- Assessment of Visible Foliar Injury Induced by Ozone -- Tree Foliage: Sampling and Chemical Analyses -- Diversity and Composition of Plant and Lichen Species -- Litterfall-Biomass, Chemistry, Leaf Area, and Links with Wider Ecosystem Functioning -- Forest Soil: Characterization, Sampling, Physical, and Chemical Analyses -- Soil Solution: Sampling and Chemical Analyses -- Meteorology -- Atmospheric Deposition to Forest Ecosystems -- Methods for Measuring Gaseous air Pollutants in Forests -- Quality Assurance in International Forest Monitoring in Europe -- Data Quality in Field Surveys: Methods and Results for Tree Condition, Phenology, Growth, Plant Diversity and Foliar Injury due to Ozone -- Data Quality in Laboratories: Methods and Results for Soil, Foliar, and Water Chemical Analyses -- Methods for Database Quality Assessment -- Reporting Forest Monitoring -- Terrestrial Methods in Forest Monitoring: Toward the Next Generation?
The demand for comparable, long-term, high quality data on forest ecosystems' status and changes is increasing at the international and global level. Yet, sources for such data are limited and in many case it is not possible to compare data from different monitoring initiatives across space and time because of methodological differences. Apart from technical manuals, there is no comprehensive multidisciplinary, scientific, peer-reviewed reference for forest monitoring methods that can serve and support the user community.
