“…Afterward, non-wood forest products and services, environmental-ecological functions (reducing climate change, protecting biological diversity, protecting soil and water, etc.) and tourism-recreation functions of forests gained importance both in Türkiye and in the world (Bozali, 2021;Kadioğulları et al, 2014;Keleş et al, 2007;Kuvan et al, 2011;Kuvan et al, 2018). In 1963, forest inventory studies were initiated with the Five-Year Development Plans in Türkiye.…”

The objective of this study was to determine the temporal changes in forest ecosystem values (economic, ecological, and socio-cultural functions) for the 1996, 2009 and 2018 planning periods. For this purpose, forest management plans and forest cover type maps were used to reveal the changes in forest ecosystem values for the planning periods. Temporal changes in forest ecosystem functions were discussed in terms of economic, ecological and socio-cultural functions which are three essential functions. There has been a decrease in the amount of area for economic purposes in the region in the following planning periods. A general decrease in areas for economic purposes and a general increase in areas for ecological purposes were determined during the planning periods. While there was not any area for socio-cultural purposes in the 1996 planning period, there was an area of 1631 ha in the 2009 planning period and 1575 ha in the 2018 planning period. Demands of the society and the changes in forest management planning approaches over time, changes have occurred in forest functions. Depending on these changes, decreased in production forests and increases in non-production forests (ecological and socio-cultural) were observed.

Because forest cover changes directly affect the sustainability of the forest value, they should be observed carefully. This study analyzed the spatial and temporal pattern of land use/land cover change (LULCC) along with the effects of some socio-economic factors such as forest crime rates, rural population change, and annual gross national product (GNP) on spatiotemporal change of forest dynamics between 1970 and 2015 in the Olur forest planning unit using ArcGIS software and Patch Analyst extension.The results showed that high forest areas increased by 47.14% between 1970 and 2015. Coppice stands completely transitioned to other cover types in 2015 due to the changing of management policy in the case study area. Based on landscape pattern, the total number of patches (NP) increased by 50.07%, and mean patch size (MPS) decreased by 31.88% during the period. Results indicated that the forest ecosystem became more sensitive as it turned into a more spatially fragmented structure, making continued efforts to maintain biodiversity and insure sustainability a challenge. Depending on the decrease in the rural population and economic growth, there was a serious decrease in forest crime rates. This study has shown that socio-economic factors can be effective on landscape dynamics besides management activities.
