Аннотация: Natural forests have a richness of organisms and processes, much of which is linked to their characteristic structural complexity. Recent recearch on natural disturbances has increasingly clarified the importance of biological legacies of living organisms and organically-derived structures, such as snags and down logs, in providing for perpetuation of complex natural ecosystems. The importance of large-scale or landscape perspectives has been clarified by research on issues such as cumulative effects and forest fragmentation. The objective in New Forestry is development of forest management systems which better integrate commodity production with maintenance of structurally complex managed forest systems; this contrast with the structural and compositional simplification that is characteristic of current intensive forest management practices. At the landscape level the basic principle of New Forestry is to consider effects of management practices over large spatial and temporal scales. This includes such issues at the arrangement of different patch types and sizes, and integration of reserved areas with commodity lands to produce a diversified landscape.
