About the Journal

AIMS AND SCOPE

Tropical Forestry aims to facilitate international dialogue between academicians, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers of tropical forestry. The journal publishes peer-reviewed papers on all aspects that contribute to the sustainable development of tropical forests. We invite papers dealing with the biological and environmental components of tropical forests and the economic and social aspects of tropical forestry.

The journal covers a wide range of topics from upstream to downstream forestry, including:

  • Agroforestry
  • Forest ecology
  • Forest economics
  • Forest GIS and remote sensing
  • Forest hydrology
  • Forest plantation
  • Non-wood forest products
  • Park management
  • Recreation
  • Social forestry
  • Taxonomy
  • Urban forestry
  • Wildlife
  • Wood science and products

We welcome manuscript submissions for publication consideration in the following categories: review articles, research articles, or short communications, all without any article processing charges (APC).

Furthermore, Tropical Forestry features industry papers to meet the needs of professionals and practitioners, allowing them to share and promote their experiences, practices, and products with their peers globally. The APC for an industry paper is either USD 250 or MYR 1000.

All articles and papers are published online and are available as “Open Access.”
