INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOREST ENGINEERING

Beginning with the January 2007 issue, the Forest Products Society became the publisher of the International Journal of Forest Engineering (IJFE).  Since its inception in 1989, the IJFE has been published by the University of New Brunswick.  Cornelis DeHoop, Louisiana State University Agricultural Center, will serve as Technical Editor.

 

The IJFE is dedicated to the dissemination of scholarly writing in all aspects of forest operations, focusing on original research, but also including review, analysis, and synthesis articles. Article topics include: tree harvesting, processing, and transportation; stand establishment, protection, and tending; operations planning and control; machine design, management and evaluation; forest access planning and construction; human factors engineering; and education and training.

 

An important role for the IJFE is to report on existing practices and innovations in forest engineering by scientists and professional from around the world to promote environmentally sound forestry practices and contribute to sustainable forest management.  A bi-annual publication, the International Journal of Forest Engineering is committed to serving the international forest engineering community as the voice of new ideas and developments in forest engineering.

 

Cost of an annual subscription of the IJFE for Forest Products Society Members is $125.00.  Non-Member subscription rates are: $165.00 for Canada and Mexico, and $195 for all Other Countries.
