Forests provide goods and services while maintaining ecological security. However, the market does not adequately reflect their economic benefits, posing a significant challenge to the Payments for Forest Ecosystem Services (PFES). The involvement of multiple stakeholders with varying responsibilities and interests complicates collaboration and hinders effective governance. This study proposes an integrated approach using stakeholder analysis, social network analysis, and evolutionary game analysis to explore the collaborative governance of stakeholders in PFES. Through field surveys, the study empirically investigates PFES in China, demonstrating the effectiveness of this integrated approach. The results indicate the following: (i) Stakeholders are classified into three categories; the key stakeholders include the central and local governments, forest managers, and paying users. (ii) Stakeholders still need to strengthen collaboration. Local governments, forest managers, their employees, and communities exert widespread influence; paying users and research institutions have high efficiency in resource sharing. (iii) Five evolutionarily stable strategies are observed at different stages. Government intervention is crucial for changing the stagnant state. Benefits and government incentives have a positive impact on stakeholder collaborative governance. The research findings offer theoretical insights to enhance stakeholder collaboration and promote the development of the PFES. Key strategies include addressing key stakeholders’ needs, diversifying incentives, and establishing an accessible information platform.

The results of research on climatic conditions in three geographical (forest vegetation) zones of Vietnam are presented. The zones were identified to assess the increase in wood organic mass in relation to changes in climatic conditions. Each so-called forest vegetation zone is characterized by certain indicators of climatic conditions, which affect the growth of wood organic mass. The relationship between the growth of wood mass, the main evaluation indicator of the forest fund, and climatic conditions is reflected based on the model of the Swedish climatologist H. Peterson. Climatic factors influencing wood growth were taken from reference books, except for solar energy. The methodology for calculating the influx of solar energy to forest areas in connection with the sun's altitude is provided in this work. The relationship between the growth of wood reserves and the climatic conditions of forest growth has been established in various forest lands, a dependency has been established, and zoning of the forest fund of Vietnam has been proposed, taking into account soil quality
