Mustvee Gümnaasium METSATULEKAHJUDE ÜLEVAADE EESTIS Uurimistöö Evelin Kütt 12. klass Juhendaja: Maili Vaher Mustvee, 2010/2011Sisukord Sissejuhatus Metsatulekahjud on oma õhusaastavuse tõttu ülemaailmne probleem. Alad, mis põlevad Ameerikas või Austraalias ei ole võrreldavad Eesti metsatulekahjudega, kuid siinses mastaabis võib ka paarisaja hektari suurust põlengut nimetada hiigeltulekahjuks. Veel mõned aastakümned tagasi ei suhtutud metsatulekahjudesse sellise tõsidusega nagu seda tehakse nüüd. Metsatulekahjud ei olnud küll haruldased nähtused, kuid nende mõju keskkonnale ei hinnatud nii tõsiseks. Praegu on teada, et metsatulekahjud paiskavad aastas atmosfääri rohkem CO2-te, kui suudab toota kogu maailma transport. Sellega seonduvalt on hakatud rohkem investeerima metsatulekahjude enne...

EESTI METSANDUS 2011 EESTI METSAD EESSÕNA Eestlastele on läbi aegade olnud omane lähedane suhe metsaga ja pikaajalised head traditsioonid metsanduse arendamisel. Metsad, mille kogupindala on enam kui 2 miljonit hektarit, moodustavad iseloomuliku osa Eesti maastikust, kattes üle poole meie maa territooriumist. Viimase 70 aasta jooksul on metsade puidutagavara suurenenud enam kui 4 korda. Mitmekordselt on suurenenud ka kaitsealuste metsade pindala. See on oluline fakt, millega tuleb arvestada nii metsapoliitika edasisel kujundamisel kui ka metsade kaitse ning majandamise korraldamisel. Käesolev Eesti Metsanduse ülevaade on k...
