IJBAR publications must be of interest to an international audience, hypothesis-driven, and replicable. IJBAR publishes original research papers and short communications, review articles and case studies at the nexus between bamboo resource, agriculture, forestry, and natural ecosystems. The scope of the Journal extends to the environmental management and economic aspects of biomass relating to bamboo and rattan, bioenergy, value chains development, food security, climate change, environmental sustainability law, pharmacology, toxicology, taxonomy, biotechnology and genetics, livestock fodders production and processing, vocational and technical education, sustainable development, economics of bamboo and rattan, financial cooperatives and enterprises, insurance and bamboo/rattan farming, apiculture and wildlife conservation, etc. In other words, the IJBAR will focus on woody bamboo and rattan resources, chemical and biological processes, biomass products processing and utilization for new renewable sources of energy and materials with emphasis on basic and applied scientific research relevant to practical problems in the field of plant and soil sciences, food security, forest and wildlife ecology, bioremediation and biogeography of bamboo distribution as affected by weather, climate variability and climate change, remote sensing/GIS for bamboo and rattan assessment and monitoring. Theoretical models should be tested against experimental data. Special issues devoted to single topics will also be published.</p> <p><strong>Key areas covered by the Journal:</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Bamboo and rattan biomass assessment:</strong> sources, silviculture of the product, classification, physiology, growth, properties, ecology and management of bamboo genetic improvements, composition and remote sensing/GIS applications. Please note that research on these biomass subjects must be linked directly to bamboo assessment.</li> <li><strong>Biological Residues:</strong> residues/rests from bamboo based agricultural production, agroforestry and plantations and bamboo processing industries. Articles on the use of biomass residues through innovative processes/technological novelty and/or consideration of feedstock system sustainability or unsustainability, are welcomed.</li> <li><strong>Bamboo Utilization Processes</strong>: fermentations, thermochemical conversions, liquid and gaseous fuels, and petrochemical substitutes, foodstuffs, medicines, cosmetics, biochemical, textiles.</li> <li><strong>Bamboo for bioenergy utilization</strong>: energy production processes, direct combustion, gasification, electricity production, chemical processes, and by-product remediation.</li> <li><strong>Bamboo and the Environment</strong>: Bamboo and the Environment: Bamboo and rattan as a nature-based solutions, carbon cycle to remove carbon dioxide (CDR) from the atmosphere, the net energy efficiency of bioenergy systems, assessment of sustainability, and biodiversity issues. Climate change, Propagation and Nursery Technology of forestry species like bamboo and rattan (Micropropagation & Vegetative propagation; DNA barcoding bamboo and rattan for precise identification at species level; Germplasm Collection and Evaluation of bamboo and rattan; Reproductive biology and hybridization of bamboo; Development of tools for harvesting and management of bamboo; Certification of quality planting material (QPM) in bamboo; Development of management protocols of bamboo and rattan nurseries and plantations; Processing and preservation methods for edible bamboo shoots.</li> <li><strong>Bamboo bioremediation</strong> <strong>potential:</strong> especially, as a phytoremediation capacities to removing heavy metals and toxins from soils with crude oil pollution.</li> <li><strong>Bamboo for ecosystems restoration or remediation:</strong> to tap the potential of bamboos to improve water conservation, regulate stream flow and control floods, remediate erosion gullies, etc.</li> <li><strong>Bamboo and people:</strong> Papers communicating socio-cultural impacts of bamboo and rattan and bamboo policies analyses, are welcome for publication.</li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="right-column" class="columns large-3 medium-4 small-12"> <h2>Recent publications</h2> <h2>Journal Browser</h2> <form id="volume-browser-form" method="post" action="/volume_browser"> <select name="volume" onchange="$('#journal-browser-issue').find('option').not('.volume-0').hide();
