Avian responses to selective logging shaped by species traits and logging practices.
Selective logging is one of the most common forms of forest use in the tropics. Although the effects of selective logging on biodiversity have been widely studied, there is little agreement on the relationship between life-history traits and tolerance to logging. In this study, we assessed how species traits and logging practices combine to determine species responses to selective logging, base...
متن کاملResponses of native and invasive plant species to selective logging in an Acacia koa-Metrosideros polymorpha forest in Hawai'i
Questions: Is the introduced timber species Fraxinus uhdei invasive in Hawai‘i? Has logging disturbance facilitated the spread of Fraxinus and other alien species? Location: Windward Mauna Kea, island of Hawai‘i. Methods: We surveyed 29 plots which were established before selective logging of the native tree Acacia koa in 1971 to determine if Fraxinus spread beyond the borders of an existing pl...
متن کاملLogging off
The World Bank estimates the value of the global illegal timber trade at more than $10 billion per year. Tracking the timber supply chain is poor and allows widespread illegal logging, log smuggling and log laundering, it believes. Timber taken from remote forests in Asia, Russia, South America and Africa is often shipped long distances and its only certification is a paper trail that is highly...
متن کاملLogging impacts on avian species richness and composition differ across latitudes and foraging and breeding habitat preferences: LOGGING IMPACTS DIFFER ACROSS LATITUDES
Understanding the causes underlying changes in species diversity is a fundamental pursuit of ecology. Animal species richness and composition often change with decreased forest structural complexity associated with logging. Yet differences in latitude and forest type may strongly influence how species diversity responds to logging. We performed a meta-analysis of logging effects on local specie...
متن کاملThe Optimal Selective Logging Regime and the Faustmann Formula
This study analyzes the optimal selective logging regime of a size-distributed forest where individual trees compete for scarce resources such as space, light, and nutrients. The decision problem of the forest manager is formulated as a distributed optimal control problem. The interpretation of the first-order conditions allows a generalization of the Faustmann formula. In an empirical part, th...
