Abstract: The behavior of forest products prices has large implications for forest management and policy. Decisions such as the timing of harvesting and investment in new plantations depend on future price expectations and policy makers often are concerned about the persistence of price shocks for stabilization purposes. Previous research on the topic has been mixed and focused on the question of whether prices are integrated of order one (i.e., have a unit root) and are nonstationary or if they are integrated of order… Show more

“…Specifically, this special issue comprises eight articles covering a wide variety of topics. In addition to the five we have discussed above, the remaining ones include an econometric analysis of the behavior of forest product prices (Niquidet and Sun 2012), an analysis of the role of political pressure on the Canada–U.S. softwood lumber dispute (Godwin and Zhang 2012), and a case study of the benefits of restoring forest cover to protect ridgelines and hillsides in the southern United States (Chadourne et al 2012).…”
