Abstract:
We analyse the collaboration between forestry research institutions and
forestry departments in China based on a bibliometric study of four leading
Chinese forestry journals. Multiple-authored papers are frequent, and there
is a significant collaboration between research and implementing agencies.
This collaboration centres on applied research, being less common on
fundamental research and almost non-existent on policy research.
Universities, National research institutes and National and Provincial
level forest departments act as the key organisers of research, with
specialised domains and types of collaboration. This helps explain the
success of Chinese forestry experiences in recent years.
