A flow chart on how a tree goes from being a tree into a paper?
They take the trees to a paper mill where they are put through a processor and chopped to little bits then they are process , bleached and made into paper. International Paper of West Monroe Louisiana is one of the larger Paper Mills and I will tell you they stink pretty badly.
Tenants in common are presumed to each own an equal but undivided interest in "every particle" of the property. As such, the wood is also equally owned, and one owner who cuts it would be "accountable" to the other owners for their share of the value of the wood and perhaps for the diminished value of the property as a whole.
It would certainly be advisable to obtain some form of agreement prior to making permanent improvements or depletions of property owned in common with others.
The other owners could, in theory, sue to stop the cutting or removal of the wood if such an equitable remedy would be justified by the circumstances.
On the other hand, there is nothing preventing the other owners from making a "gift" of the wood to a single co-owner.

How does deforestation affect the patterns of river flow?
The deforested area can not hold onto the rain water, which will rush down the river and cause flooding in low places.
On steep slopes, the unprotected land, having no tree roots to hold it together, may make landslides. These could block parts of the river.
Where the river turns, the rush of water could cut into the banks of the river, changing its shape and destroying docks and houses.
Rainwater, washing freely over the land, carries away the soil, which ends up in the river. Then it is deposited at less steep, slower sections of the river, clogging the river and making navigation difficult.
How does ploughing across a slope of a hill help retain the soil in farm fields?
Plowing across the slope minimizes erosion by inhibiting water's ability to run down the slope. Plowing in the direction of the slope creates channels that water runs down, carrying the valuable topsoil with it.
