%X Timber production logistics systems differ greatly in forest regions. This study investigated multistage timber production and storage system. Based on case studies from the Heilongjiang Forest Region, northeast part of China, an optimal operation scheduling model, with considerations of forest environment, economic benefit, working safety and the disturbance to carbon emission, was established by using a multiobjective optimization method. The results of the case studies, optimizing operation schedules, show that the models are quite applicable and helpful to practical operations.
