Abstract:
IntroductionIn the past six decades, extensive research has been done on family therapy from different areas of knowledge such as psychology, psychiatry and social work. Leading to development of different intervention techniques and optimal clinical evaluation with families.AimsThe systemic perspective focus on the study of the dimensions that contribute to the stability and consistency of the members of the family system. The family is an interrelated system, dependent on each other, where there is an influence of the group over the individual, which is why each of its members plays a pivotal role in family therapy. Throughout all these years of evolution of systemic family therapy, many different concepts and techniques have been used, including the ones currently used today.MethodsKnowing the evolution of the different techniques allows us to understand the functioning of families, for example, their links and the elements that constitute it: their roles, the functions performed by each member in the family, communication, standards and power relations.ConclusionsThe descriptive diagnosis of family ties, help us implement intervention strategies that could improve clinical care and diagnostic approach.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:
Structural Family Therapy was developed by Salvador Minuchin and colleagues during the 1960s as part of the growing interest in systemic ways of conceptualising human distress and relationship dilemmas, and in working therapeutically with those natural systems and relationships, thought to give rise to distress. Structural family therapy is underpinned by a clearly articulated model of family functioning, and has been developed and used most consistently in services for children and families. A growing body of empirical evidence attests to the efficacy of structural family therapy. As an approach it was extensively critiqued during the 1980s by feminist writers and during the 1990s by those interested in the implications of a social constructionist position. Structural family therapy continues to evolve in response to challenges mounted from within and outwith the systemic field, and as part of integrative practice and multi-systemic approaches, with practitioners ever mindful of the need for regular feedback from family members themselves.

Abstract:
The current models that we use in systemic family therapy came out of office/clinic-based practice. To date, there is no model specifically orientated to systemic family therapy in the home. As a systemic family therapist, I argue that non-traditional approaches may need to be considered; and that systemic family therapy models should come closer to reflecting discourses that have shades of global influences. My interest in the area emerged from a position of ignorance – making assumptions that the tools used in the clinic could easily be colonised into a family’s home – but I found that the models often used in the clinic do not necessarily transfer easily into the home. an adaptation of a systematic review was conducted that undermined the notion that therapists are ‘knowing’ with particular skill and competency to work in the home. I ask the question: How do I improve upon my systemic family therapy practice to work in families’ homes? African oral traditional ideas (AOTI) are broadly explored to consider the notion of self and bodily feelings as a source of knowledge. Through the use of AOTI I created an approach known as Seselelame, foregrounding a new practice stemming from ideas that are not home grown within the systemic family therapy perspectives, to support my practice within the home. the inquiry offers the following contribution of new knowledge to family systemic therapy: conceptualization of a method (Seselelame) that incorporates the idea of self in the context of awareness of feelings in the body; a method that incorporates African oral traditional ideas and thus expanded the traditional Western view of family/systemic therapy; contextualization of the significance of home as a source of knowledge; the Seselelame model was used as an analytical tool alongside a systemic constructionist analytical model to compare and contrast the data produced. The findings conclude that the inquiry has implications for the practice and teaching of systemic family therapy, which will eventually be published once the thesis is completed.

Abstract:
Genograms are a widely used tool, well grounded in systemic theory. However the claims made in the literature regarding the therapeutic use and effects of the genogram have not been empirically explored or verified. This study therefore aimed to examine the extent to which the use and effects of genograms in clinical practice reflect the claims made in the literature. This study asked: what therapeutic tasks the genogram is used for, the specific pathways the genogram facilitates those tasks, and the mechanisms salient to the genogram that adds to clinical practice. Ten qualified Family Therapists participated in semi-structured interviews discussing their experiences. A Thematic Analysis was conducted. Five themes were identified: therapist-family joining; systemic exploration; therapist hypothesizing; family perturbation through cognitive change; family perturbation through experiential and behaviour change. This study found that genograms were used in some of the ways described in the literature: engagement, information gathering, hypothesizing and intervention aimed at cognitive change. The usefulness of the genogram was found to extend beyond ‘engagement’ and ‘information gathering’ to ‘therapist-family joining’ and ‘systemic exploration’ respectively. However, this study did not find the genogram was used to explore emotions, nor as an intervention aimed directly at behaviour change; instead, change at the experiential level was reported. The pathways the genogram facilitates therapeutic tasks are delineated, as are the mechanisms salient to the genogram that adds to clinical practice. Recommendations for further research were made. This included repeating this study with therapists from different training backgrounds, as well as undertaking a quantitative study examining genogram outcomes in terms of a measurable change in presenting problems.

Abstract:
This study investigated the application of six techniques from systemic family therapy. A review of the history of family therapy identified the major contributions from general psychiatry, communications theory and cybernetics which had combined to form the therapies known collectively as systemic family therapy. The theory was outlined and examined and the major assumptions which are the basis for specific techniques of therapy within this model were identified. Six of these techniques were examined and demonstrated in therapy. The outcome of each technique was assessed. A family was seen from initial contact to termination, using a two member team approach (Viaro and Leonardi, 1983) in which-one therapist observed the other through a one way video arrangement. The presenting problem was a suicide attempt by an adolescent, culminating in admission to hospital. Therapy using the model was concluded in four sessions. Follow-up at six months disclosed no further admissions to hospital and a report from the family that they were satisfied with the outcome of therapy. Distinctions between first and second order cybernetic therapy were made and the therapists were found to adhere to a first order model. Successful and unsuccessful use of the techniques is identified and discussed. Using as a measure the absence of further suicide attempts and the family's self reported reduction in the number of arguments between the parents and the identified patient, it was concluded that the use of the nominated techniques from systemic family therapy had enabled successful intervention.

Full text
Abstract:
Although various conceptual approaches and frameworks describe how systemic thinking can be applied via consultation to organisations, they are derived from clinical work and case studies. Indeed, the empirical literature regarding the efficacy or even the understanding of the application of systemic principles to organisational consultation is very poor. An understanding of the processes involved in systemic organisational consultation is considered important in order to support therapists working systemically with organisations in a way that maximises possibilities for organisational productivity, =learning and change. This study presents an exploration of systemic family therapists’ understandings and experiences of systemically orientated organisational consultative practice. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with twelve qualified systemic family therapists working in a variety of mental health and forensic settings across South Wales and the South West of England. A Constructivist Grounded Theory approach was employed to analyse participants’ accounts. Three themes relating to systemic organisational consultation were identified in the study: ‘The prologue: Conceptualising the context for consultation’, ‘From monologue to dialogues: Creating new contexts for new conversations’ and ‘The metalogue: Outcomes of consultation’. The emergent themes were compared to wider literature pertaining to the application of systemic family therapy to organisational consultative practice. The findings from this research have a range of implications for systemic therapists as well as other professionals working systemically with organisational systems. Implications for clinical practice, training and the development of the role of the therapist working systemically with organisations are discussed, and recommendations for future research are made.

Full text
Abstract:
The following thesis consists of three papers; a literature review, an empirical paper and a reflective paper. The literature review summarises current knowledge regarding the efficacy of systemic family therapy in neurorehabilitation. Studies investigating the impact of brain injury on the family suggest that all family members should be included in their injured relatives’ rehabilitation programme due to the risk of developing relational difficulties. In view of this, family therapy has become increasingly popular amongst Clinical Psychologists and other professionals working in neurorehabilitation. This review aims to critically evaluate the efficacy of systemic family therapy within neurorehabilitation. Methodological considerations and implications for future research are discussed, as well as clinical and service implications. The empirical paper explores changes in children’s relationships when a parent acquires a brain injury. The findings of the study highlight the positive and negative changes children experience in their relationships as a result of their parents’ acquired brain injury (ABI). Results are discussed in relation to the current literature, consideration of the strengths and limitations of the research, clinical implications and recommendations for future research. The reflective paper discusses the researcher’s own experience of carrying out the research. The researcher utilised the ‘Heartstrings’ activity used in the empirical study to help them reflect on changes in their relationships throughout the research process.

Abstract:
Does Systemic Family Therapy (SFT) make sense to general adult psychiatrists? SFT is both a theoretical position and a form of psychotherapy. It has been evolving within mental health practice in the UK since the 1950’s. Though it is now to be found more often in child and adolescent mental health services, it has its roots in adult mental health. This in-depth qualitative study is an investigation of how registered psychiatrists working in adult services in the UK make sense of SFT. As the training and experiences of SFT vary for psychiatrists working in adult mental health services, this study explores those experiences, and the meaning psychiatrists have of them, including what they have taken into current working practice. This study therefore attempts to contribute to our understanding of the relation between the disciplines of psychiatry and SFT, and how psychiatrists use SFT in their practice. The research used semi-structured interviews with six qualified psychiatrists working in adult services within a London Mental Health Trust to explore the lived experiences each had of SFT. These interviews were recorded, transcribed and then analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The participants welcomed the opportunity to share and think about SFT in their practice and experience. The four main themes that emerged from the analysis were The Past in the Present and the Future, the impact and relevance of SFT training; Proximity and distance, exploring the range and limits of accessing SFT concepts and provision; Anxiety and Uncertainty; Position of SFT in mental health services. These master themes explore the participant’s recall of their experience of SFT both in their psychiatric training and in their subsequent working practice. They illuminate how these experiences relate to psychiatrists’ sense of SFT as a broader set of theories about human relations and mental health. The findings highlight the different ways psychiatrists made sense of, and utilized, SFT in their practice. The analysis of the interviews also reveals support for the trend towards incorporation of systemic thinking in mental health practice and training more generally. The discussion focuses on the aspects of nostalgic remembrance of experiences that no longer feel accessible within psychiatric practice; the experience of learning as a mental health practitioner; and the embeddedness of SFT in present work and the workplace, in relation to existing literature and theory. The conclusion offers reflections on the research process and insights into the applicability of the findings to mental health training, service development, and particularly how SFT thinking and skills can be taught in a more accessible way to other mental health professionals.

Abstract:
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeleton disease, characterized by a low bone mass and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue with consecutive increasing of fragile bones and susceptibility of fractures. Risk facture, advanced ages, family history, rheumatoid arthritis, low calcium intake, physical inactivity, and low body weight can lead to this condition. The aim of treatment in osteoporosis is to grow-up the bone mineral density of the skeleton and to increase resorption of formed bone, used diverse methods as medications, conservative measures, weight reduction, physical and occupational therapy, mechanical support devices and surgery. This paper presents a balneal-conservative treatment applied to 82 patients diagnosed with osteoporosis from Rehabilitation Clinical Hospital of Felix Spa in 2011–2012, which has combined with a kinetotherapy and medication treatment. The complex rehabilitation treatment involves balneal-physical-kinetic recovery treatment that must be periodical repeated every six months, while the subjects themselves at home followed the kinetotherapy with drugs between balneal-treatments at hospital. The significance of rehabilitation treatment for the osteoporosis patients is to rise both functional and independence level, and improving their quality life. DEXA, Qualeffo-41 Test, fragility fractures, difference of height patients, using the statistical analysis have performed the evaluation of trial. These results emphasized the efficiency of balneal-rehabilitation treatment with main accent on respect the kinetotherapy applied the osteoporosis patients. The future research will be focused upon the implementation of vibration therapy with balneal-conservative treatment on patients with osteoporosis to reduce the therapy time and improving the quality patients life.

Abstract:
Medical device companies are continuously challenged with the ability to prove compliance with increasingly complex regulatory frameworks. Operating under heavy regulatory requirements may therefore cause significant delays to the lead time of new medical devices and thus contribute significantly to time-to-market for even simple medical device development projects. In this paper we illustrate how medical device companies can reduce their research and development (R&D) efforts needed to prove compliance when developing new product families by means of platforming and modularization. The results presented in this paper are based on a two-year empirical case study of a European manufacturer of arterial blood gas (ABG) sampling devices. The core contribution of this paper is a systematic architecting approach that applies the concept of a delta-multi-domain matrix (ΔMDM) to support companies in justifying the reuse of verification and validation (V&V) test documentation packages across new product family designs. The paper introduces an approach to aligning product and documentation architectures by architecture mirroring, and emphasizes the need for having a one-to-one mapping between the product and V&V test view. This will allow for V&V-related documentation to follow the product platform, and thereby enable carry-over of test documentation packages from one product family to another. Hence, this approach can provide significant competitive advantages to companies as it increases R&D efficiency while reducing time-to-market for new medical device development.

Abstract:
Abstract Industrial gas turbines like the MGT6000 are often operated as power supply or as mechanical drives for pumps and compressors at remote locations on islands and in deserts. Moreover, small gas turbines are used in CHP applications with a high need for availability. In these applications, liquid fuels like ‘Diesel Fuel No. 2’ can be used either as main fuel or as backup fuel if natural gas is not reliably available. The MAN Gas Turbines (MGT) operate with the Advanced Can Combustion (ACC) system, which is already capable of ultra-low NOx emissions for a variety of gaseous fuels. This system has been further developed to provide dry dual fuel capability to the MGT family. In the present paper, we describe the design and detailed experimental validation process of the liquid fuel injection, and its integration into the gas turbine package. A central lance with an integrated two-stage nozzle is employed as a liquid pilot stage, enabling ignition and start-up of the engine on liquid fuel only, without the need for any additional atomizing air. The pilot stage is continuously operated to support further the flame stabilization across the load range, whereas the bulk of the liquid fuel is injected through the premixed combustor stage. The premixed stage comprises a set of four decentralized nozzles placed at the exit of the main air swirler. These premixed nozzles are based on fluidic oscillator atomizers, wherein a rapid and effective atomization of the liquid fuel is achieved through self-induced oscillations of the liquid fuel stream. We present results of numerical and experimental investigations performed in the course of the development process illustrating the spray, hydrodynamic, and thermal performance of the pilot injectors. Extensive testing of the burner at atmospheric and full load high-pressure conditions has been performed, before verification of the whole combustion system within full engine tests. The burner shows excellent emission performance (NOx, CO, UHC, soot) without additional water injection, while maintaining the overall natural gas performance. Soot and particle emissions, quantified via several methods, are well below legal restrictions. Furthermore, when not in liquid fuel operation, a continuous purge of the injectors based on compressor outlet (p2) air has been laid out. Generic atmospheric coking tests were conducted before verifying the purge system in full engine tests. Thereby we completely avoid the need for an additional high-pressure auxiliary compressor or demineralized water. We show the design of the fuel supply and distribution system. We designed it to allow for rapid fuel switchovers from gaseous fuel to liquid fuel, and for sharp load jumps. Finally, we discuss the integration of the dual fuel system into the standard gas turbine package of the MGT6000 in detail.

Abstract:
Many engineering systems are required to operate under changing operating conditions. A special class of systems called adaptive systems have been proposed in the literature to achieve high performance under changing environments. Adaptive systems acquire this powerful feature by allowing their design configuration to change with operating conditions. In the optimization of the adaptive systems, designers are often required to select (i) adaptive and (ii) non-adaptive (or fixed) design variables of the design configuration. Generally, the selection of these variables, and the optimization of adaptive systems are performed sequentially, thus leaving a likelihood of a sub-optimal design. In this paper, we propose the Selection-Integrated Optimization (SIO) methodology that integrates the two key processes: (1) the selection of the adaptive and fixed design variables, and (2) the optimization of the adaptive system, thereby leading to an optimum design. A major challenge to integrating these two key processes is the selection of the number of fixed and adaptive design variables, which is discrete in nature. We propose the Variable-Segregating Mapping-Function (VSMF) that overcomes this roadblock by progressively approximating the discreteness in the design variable selection process. This simple yet effective approach allows the SIO methodology to integrate the selection and optimization processes, and help avoid one significant source of sub-optimality from typical optimization formulations. The SIO methodology finds its applications in a variety of other engineering fields as well, such as product family optimization. However, in this paper, we limit the scope of our discussion to adaptive system optimization. The effectiveness of the SIO methodology is demonstrated by optimally designing a new air-conditioning system called Active Building Envelope (ABE) System.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Low Birth Weight (LBW) as babies born weighing less than 2500 grams. LBW continues to be a significant public health problem globally due to its short and long term effects on health. LBW is not the only leading cause of prenatal mortality and a cause of illness. Common causes of infant and neonatal mortality are low birth weight (LBW) and sepsis. One of the measures that can be given to babies with LBW is by using the Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) method. This method is a free therapy that mothers can do because not all LBW babies are able to get health services using advanced technology. This study aimed to review mothers experience with low born weight infant. Subjects and Method: A scoping review was conducted by searching articles published from 2009 to 2019. The articles were collected based on 4 databases, including PubMed, Sciencedirect, Wiley, and EBSCO. The articles the reviewed using Preferred Reporting System for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) flow diagram. Results: Fifteen of the 394 articles met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed. The experience of mothers with Low Birth Weight (LBW) babies showed that mothers have several factors that can influence mothers with babies with LBW. The factors were lack of knowledge, lack of support from both family and health personnel, access to health facilities, maternal psychology, economic, socio-cultural, and environmental conditions. Conclusion: The readiness of maternal, psychological, socio-economic knowledge, access to health facilities, support, socio-culture, and environment are greatly affect the condition of the mother in carrying out her responsibilities as a mother. Keywords: mother’s experience, low born weight, infant, scooping review Correspondence: Yayu Yuliarti. ‘Aisyiyah University Yogyakarta. Jl.

Abstract:
The SeaWolf is beside the UUV’s SeaFox and SeaOtter one of the core vehicles of the ATLAS UUV family. It is an HAUV (Hybrid Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) which can be used completely autonomous (AUV) or, equipped with a broadband fibre-optic cable connection to the surface, as an ROV respective as a semi AUV. Such a connection permits both, a total human control of the vehicle or solely an online data transfer from the vehicle to the control station and vice versa. The system is based on its general design philosophy on the small and very successful underwater vehicle SeaFox, which is sold over 2000 times. An outstanding SeaWolf characteristic is its ability to operate alone or in a team whereas its autonomy varies from fully autonomous, i.e. independently of the other team members, to an absolute dependency, i.e. under complete control of one or more team members. The level of the so called Adaptive Autonomy depends thereby on the mission complexity for the team or for the individual member. The SeaWolf is medium sized with 2m length and 50cm maximum diameter. Its weight is between 100kg and 110kg with 30kg payload included. The payload can be a customer specific configuration and will be integrated into the vehicle by plug and play. The quality of the navigation system is selectable by the customer as well. It reaches from a simple TCM based unit up to a DVL and GPS supported high performance inertial measurement unit. The vehicle’s maximum speed is 8kts and with the aid of 5 propulsion devices, not only operating in current but also a high manoeuvrability is guaranteed. The SeaWolf is designed for 300m diving depth, with an option for 600m. Its application scope extends from of all kinds of underwater inspection and monitoring, over scientific applications up to the use in the security area. The paper shows the SeaWolf involvement in the UUV family, deals with the used technologies and shows selected applications from the maritime security domain.

Abstract:
Obstetric medicine and reproductive technology have been spread out worldwide and become the symbol of modernization. Its expansion might displace the traditional treatments which mostly are practiced by the people in developing countries. However, the Malaysian women who lived in a Western country and had a well-educated background still practiced the traditional treatments after giving birth. The study was conducted in 2016 at Durham, a county in the United Kingdom, and it utilized qualitative research by interviewing five Malaysian women who had a birth experience in the United Kingdom. The result of the study revealed that heating the body with hot stone has still mostly practiced by Malaysian women even living in the United Kingdom, where there were optional sophisticated technology and qualified medical professional. In addition, some of them still obeyed the recommended and prohibited foods ruled by the origin culture during the postpartum period. The treatment was conducted at home supported by the family and colleagues whose the same ethnicity and nationality. In conclusion, the national boundaries, high education, and the existence of sophisticated health technology and qualified medical professional are irrelated to why people still undertake traditional treatments. The treatment was primarily chosen because of its health effects on the body after treatments. Therefore, health policymakers have to know and consider the migrant‟s cultural values in order to make the health system convenient and appropriate to either the migrants‟ health. In addition, the study needs further research to find the effectiveness and efficacy of traditional treatments to women‟s health.

Abstract:
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) promises to further a holistic consideration of product design, emphasizing integration, interoperability, and sustainability throughout a product’s lifecycle. Thus far, efforts have focused on addressing lifecycle concerns from a product-centric perspective by exploiting the reusability and scalability of existing products through product platform and product family design. Not much attention has been paid to leveraging the design process and its design in addressing lifecycle considerations, however. In striving for sustainability, it is the design process that should be considered to constitute an engineering enterprise’s primary resource commitment. In this paper, an overview of the challenges inherent in designing design processes is provided. These challenges are subsequently illustrated with regard to several design scenarios of varying complexity, using an example involving the design of Linear Cellular Alloys. A distinction is made between product related requirements/goals and design process related requirements/goals. Requirements, research issues, and strategies for addressing the diverse needs of modeling design processes from a decision-centric perspective are established. Finally, key elements for enabling the integrated design of products and their underlying design processes in a systematic fashion are provided, motivating the extension of PLM to include the lifecycle considerations of design processes, thereby moving towards Design Process Lifecycle Management (DPLM).

Abstract:
The growing concern for the role of man-made CO2 emissions with respect to global warming combined with the large increase in energy demand spurred by developing nations and a growing global population that is foreseen over the next 15 years have recently turned attention to potential CO2-neutral energy supply solutions. Waste heat recovery cycles applied to fossil fueled plants offer a local zero-emission solution to producing additional electric energy, thereby increasing the overall plant efficiency with a considerable reduction in the emission of CO2 per unit of energy produced. GE Oil & Gas with GE Global Research Europe has developed a new and attractive solution for recovering waste heat energy from a variety of thermal sources ranging from reciprocating combustion engines to gas turbines. This new recovery cycle is called ORegen™. The ORegen™ recovery cycle is a rankine cycle, with superheating, that recovers waste heat and converts it into electric energy by means of a double closed loop system. The ORegen™ system represents one of the very few viable solutions for recovering heat from sources (such as mechanical drive gas turbines) whose load may vary dramatically over time or where the equipment is located at a site where water is not readily available. For the temperature range of interest, a thorough comparison between many working fluids was performed, leading to the conclusion that the substance that delivers the highest efficiency is Cyclopentane. A high-efficiency Rankine cycle based on such a working fluid places a particularly high demand on the expansion ratio, which influences some of the basic architectural choices of the expander machine. This article introduces the ORegen™ recovery cycle and describes the process used in GE Oil & Gas to design the family of double supersonic stage turboexpanders, covering the power range of 2–17MW. Examples of the application of the ORegen™ cycle to gas turbine are also provided to demonstrate attractive opportunities to increase the overall plant efficiency.

Abstract:
This rapid review summarises the evidence on the ways in which social inequalities and discrimination affect the risk of famine or severe food insecurity. Looking at the risk at the national and sub-national level, gender and other horizontal inequities can affect a society’s risk of violent conflict and therefore food insecurity, while fragile livelihoods associated with ethnic marginalisation can impact regional food security. At the individual and household level, there is a lack of disaggregated data on people’s social characteristics and famines. There is a broader literature on the impact of systemic discrimination (based on gender, age, disability, sexuality, and ethnic identity) on individuals’ and households’ livelihoods and assets, thereby increasing their vulnerability to food insecurity. A key finding from the literature is the gender gap, with women more at risk of being food insecure than men. Also, some ethnic groups are highly vulnerable particularly in conflict-related famines; starvation is used as a warfare tactic in political and ethnic conflicts. There is evidence of how social inequalities heighten individuals’ risks during food crises and famines, including through exposure to protection threats, while limiting their access to essential services and humanitarian assistance. A broad range of measures seeks to address the multi-dimensional ways in which social inequalities affect vulnerability and resilience to food insecurity.

Full text
Abstract:
A systematic approach to tree planting and management globally is hindered by the limited synthesis of information sources on tree uses and species priorities. To help address this, the authors ‘mined’ information from 23 online global and regional databases to assemble a list of the most frequent tree species deemed useful for planting according to database mentions, with a focus on tropical regions. Using a simple vote count approach for ranking species, we obtained a shortlist of 100 trees mentioned in at least 10 of our data sources (the ‘top-100’ species). A longer list of 830 trees that were mentioned at least five times was also compiled. Our ‘top-100’ list indicated that the family Fabaceae (syn. Leguminosae) was most common. The information associated with our mined data sources indicated that the ‘top-100’ list consisted of a complementary group of species of differing uses. These included the following: for wood (mostly for timber) and fuel production, human nutrition, animal fodder supply, and environmental service provision (varied services). Of these uses, wood was most frequently specified, with fuel and food use also highly important. Many of the ‘top-100’ species were assigned multiple uses. The majority of the ‘top-100’ species had weediness characteristics according to ‘attribute’ invasiveness databases that were also reviewed, thereby demonstrating potential environmental concerns associated with tree planting that need to be balanced against environmental and livelihood benefits. Less than half of the ‘top-100’ species were included in the OECD Scheme for the Certification of Forest Reproductive Material, thus supporting a view that lack of germplasm access is a common concern for trees. A comparison of the ‘top-100’ species with regionally-defined tree inventories indicated their diverse continental origins, as would be anticipated from a global analysis. However, compared to baseline expectations, some geographic regions were better represented than others. Our analysis assists in priority-setting for research and serves as a guide to practical tree planting initiatives. We stress that this ‘top-100’ list does not necessarily represent tree priorities for the future, but provides a starting point for also addressing representation gaps. Indeed, our primary concern going forward is with the latter.
