The volume was well received by the critics with the exception that they wanted a more diversified demonstration of forestry-related vegetation science work and a wider representation of forest types from different continents. The topics covered in this volume, 12/1, widen the scope of vegetation science work in forestry over the phytosociological work which was the main focus in the...

Over the years he touched many of us and we felt not just a professional but also a deep personal loss in his passing. After his death I was contacted by...
