Resumo: National Forest Inventories (NFI) cover whole countries and strive to put the resource forest and the ecosystem forest into a quantitative framework. While for forest management inventories it is very obvious that they shall support management decisions and contribute to making forest planning, silvicultural interventions, conservation management and timber sales more efficient, the purpose of NFIs is not immediately visible nor “measurable”: they are to support national (and sub-national) level policy processes that relate to forests. NFIs have a long history and do experience currently a boom because the availability of a science-based quantification of the forest resource and its changes is among the prerequisites for results-based payments to developing countries when they implement measures that are efficient - and evidenced by verifiable results – in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from forests. While forest monitoring science does currently focus very much on increasing precision and accuracy of forest monitoring, on integration of ever more efficient remote sensing techniques and modelling methods, surprisingly little research is being published on background, strategic justification, institutionalization and impact of NFIs.

Enquanto que para os inventários florestais direcionados ao manejo florestal é óbvio que os mesmos devem dar suporte a decisões relacionadas ao manejo, ao planejamento florestal, às intervenções silviculturais, ao manejo visando à conservação e à venda de madeira mais eficientes, o propósito dos IFNs não é imediatamente visível ou mensurável: eles são desenhados para dar suporte a processos de decisão em nível nacional (e subnacional), envolvendo as florestas. Os IFNs tem uma longa trajetória e estão passando por um processo de aumento de interesse em função da possibilidade de quantificação dos recursos florestais com base científica; tais mudanças estão entre os pré-requisitos para pagamentos a países em desenvolvimento baseados em resultados, quando da implementação de medidas eficientes – e evidenciadas por resultados verificáveis – na redução da emissão dos gases de efeito estufa pelas florestas. Enquanto a ciência do monitoramento florestal atualmente enfoca com destaque o aumento de precisão e a acuracidade do monitoramento florestal, integrando técnicas de sensoriamento remoto e métodos de modelagem cada vez mais eficientes, surpreendentemente poucos resultados de pesquisa tem sido publicados sobre antecedentes, justificativa estratégica e impactos dos IFNs.Embrapa Florestas2017-09-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/134310.4336/2017.pfb.37.91.1343Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; v. 37 n. 91 (2017): jul./set.; 369-379Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; Vol. 37 No. 91 (2017): jul./set.; 369-3791983-26051809-3647reponame:Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAenghttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/1343/594https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKleinn, Christoph2018-05-24T12:03:04Zoai:pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb:article/1343Revistahttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/PUBhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/oaipfb@embrapa.br || revista.pfb@gmail.com || patricia.mattos@embrapa.br1983-26051809-3647opendoar:2018-05-24T12:03:04Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
