Abstract

This paper examines various structural representations of adjacency conditions in forest planning problems. It will be shown that alternative representations can rival traditional approaches, which is counter to much of the mathematical modeling and formulation literature. Analysis was conducted on a number of forest planning problems in order to draw some general conclusions on adjacency constraint representations. This is the first time that these structures have been compared in a comprehensive way. This paper provides insights into solution performance using different constraint structures and will help further the development of improved methodologies for analyzing environmental problems that must incorporate increased spatial detail.
