Timber production and carbon emission reductions through improved forest management and substitution of fossil fuels with wood biomass
Sasaki N. (2021) in Resources, Conservation and Recycling (IF>13)
This paper assesses the potential for reduced impact logging and the substitution of fossil fuels with wood biomass in Southeast Asia to significantly reduce carbon emissions and generate economic benefits through carbon pricing and financial incentives.
Local livelihood under different governances of tourism development in China – A case study of Huangshan mountain area
Qian, C., Sasaki, N., et al (2017) in Tourism Management (IF>12)
This paper examines the impacts of community-based tourism (CBT) and lease-to-operate tourism (LOT) governances on local livelihood in two tourism villages in China, finding that CBT contributes more significantly to rural livelihood improvement and should be promoted as a policy for poverty alleviation.
