F orest management, agroforestry and tree planting can be used to sequester more carbon from atmosphere to vegetation and soils, and hence for climate change mitigation. How ever, in addition to increased carbon sequestration, f orest management, agroforestry and tree planting can play important part in the derivation of a broad range of development and environmental outcomes . Such approach is denoted as high - value biocarbon de velopment . The purpose of the BIODEV ( Building Biocarbon and Rural Development in West Africa ) program is to develop and implement science - based, validated, high - value biocarbon approaches to sustainable rural development across a range of contrasting loca tions in West Africa, and to disseminate these results and build capacity for their scaling up in Africa. The climate finance instruments, such as UN REDD (Reducing E missions from Deforestation and F orest D egradation), have created n ew opportuni ties to pr otect the forest and forest related livelihoods. Recently , s imilar instruments have beg un to emerge throughout the whole LULUCF (Land Use, Land - Use Change and Forestry) sector. The reliable measurement and monitoring of landscape - level carbon stocks is req uire d in order to take part to the carbon markets . Furthermore, the mapping of the carbon stocks is necessary for targeting the high - value biocarbon interventions and for monitoring the impacts of the interventions during such activities . Therefore, one go al of the BIODEV is to provide effective , cost efficient and innovative approaches to aboveground and belowground carbon measurement by making use of field measurements and remote sensing methods (WP 1.5, Carbon measurement and monitoring systems ) | J Heiskanen, 'Field measurement guidelines for aboveground biomass and fuel wood stocks', p.19, 2013

<p><strong>An eighty years long history</strong></p><p><em>Annals of Silvicultural Research</em> (ASR) take over and are the on line follow-up of the former <em>Annali</em>. The <em>Annali</em> are<em> </em>a body of 36 volumes issued since 1970 from the Experimental Institute of Silviculture, then Forestry Research Centre of the Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura (CRA). They originate from the series of <em>Papers</em> of the same Institution (n. 15-18, 1968-69) and formerly of the Royal Station of Silviculture in Firenze (n. 1-14, 1932-67).

Among these, it is worth reminding volumes on <em>Tree farming experiments with valuable hardwood broadleaves</em> (1994-95), <em>Management of coppice forests in the Med. area</em> (1996), and the four volumes on the activity of Italian teams involved in the <em>Intensive monitoring of forest ecosystems within ICP-Forests programme </em>(1999-2006). </p><p>Up to 1993, submitted papers underwent a peer-review at care of R.
