High conservation value forest (HCVF) is a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) forest management designation used to describe those forests who meet criteria defined by the FSC Principles and Criteria of Forest Stewardship. Specifically, high conservation value forests are those that possess one or more of the following attributes:

HCVF is a multi-stakeholder planning framework which facilitates informed, long-term decision-making. The HCVF process can be seen as complementary to political planning processes such as National Forest Programmes and Natura 2000.

HCV被称为Ghost virus，就是其强大的逃逸免疫系统的能力，要知道这可是RNA病毒，不是逆转录病毒或者DNA病毒，没有整合的能力，但是却能慢性化。 所以筛查血源虽然可以从源头减少或阻断传播途径，但是并不能减轻已经感染HCV人群的痛苦，这还需要有药物。 而这又是在Rice教授建立的HCV cDNA系统之上的，HCV到目前为止，实验室还是不能培养，仍然是通过转染RNA的方式获得病毒。 但是这个系统足够用于筛选药物了。 索非布韦 （Sofosbuvir），这个“神药”，多年 …

This brochure clearly explains the HCVF concept with its strengths and limitations, illustrates how it has been applied throughout the world, and looks forward to how the concept may evolve in the future.

The HCV Approach is a 20-year methodology that pragmatically identifies and protects High Conservation Values (HCVs) from the impacts of land-use change.

2017年9月1日 · After the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) updated the HCV 2 definition in their standard to include Intact Forest Landscapes (IFL), the HCV Network updated this document in September 2017 to align with FSC’s inclusion of IFLs in the definition of HCV 2.

HCVF is a robust concept for describing the forests that responsible operators ought to prioritise for conservation, because it combines social and environmental attributes. Progressive operators who incorporate the conservation of HCVFs into their projects may. world’s many forest types.

Primary forests, Intact Forest Landscapes and forests harbouring any of the six categories of High Conservation Values are protected under the HCV Approach. Protect, restore, and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.

Established in the FSC Principles and Criteria in 1999, the concept of HCVF has provided a useful new approach for defining and managing forest areas of critical conservation significance. HCVF provides a framework for understanding what gives a forest an exceptional value, and a process of managing such forests appropriately.

Objective: To compare the influence of consuming high-carotenoid-containing F/V (HCFV) (176,425 μg beta carotene/wk) vs low-carotenoid F/V (LCFV) (2,073 μg beta carotene/wk) on …
