Abstract

Das LaForeT Projekt (Landscape Forestry in the Tropics) wurde vom Thünen-Institut für Waldwirtschaft in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Partnern in Ecuador, den Philippinen und Sambia in den Jahren 2016 bis 2023 durchgeführt. Das Projekt analysiert Auswirkungen von Politikinstrumenten auf die Entwaldung und auf Aufforstungsprozesse sowie die Nachhaltigkeit der Landnutzung im Landschaftskontext. Das Projekt stützte sich auf eine umfangreiche Feldkampagne, welche Forschungsdaten aus verschiedenen Bereichen tropischer Landnutzung generierte. Auch wenn mittlerweile mehr als 20 wissenschaftliche Publikationen auf Basis der Datensätze vorliegen, ist deren wissenschaftliches Potenzial noch lange nicht ausgeschöpft. Es sind neue wissenschaftliche und politische Fragestellungen zu erwarten, auf die die Datensätze Antworten geben können. Darüber hinaus können die Daten eine Grundlage für zukünftige Studien zur Dynamik von Landnutzungsänderungen auf pantropischer Ebene liefern. Daher werden die aggregierten Felddaten nun öffentlich zugänglich gemacht. Die Nutzung der Daten setzt ein korrektes Zitieren der Datensätze voraus. Für die kommerzielle Nutzung gelten spezielle Bedingungen. Dieses Thünen Working Paper beschreibt das Projekt im Allgemeinen und enthält Links zu den Datensätzen, um die weitere Nutzung der Daten durch die Wissenschaft und andere Landnutzer zu erleichtern. Die Anhänge enthalten spezifische technische Beschreibungen der einzelnen Datensätze.
