متن کاملSongbird response to experimental retention harvesting in red pine (Pinus resinosa) forests
Traditional harvesting practices frequently result in simplification of the structure and composition within managed forest stands in comparison to their natural counterparts. In particular, loss of heterogeneity within standsmay pose a problem formaintaining biodiversity in perpetuity. In this study, we survey breeding bird diversity and abundance in response to different spatial harvesting pa...
متن کاملFreshwater Ecosystems and Human Populations: Great Lakes Case Study
The Great Lakes of North America were brought to the brink of ecological disaster and are now being returned to a healthier condition. This paper reviews the relationship of human populations to the Lakes’ ecosystem in broad terms and offers advice on go-forward strategies. The interaction of three major forces led to the Lakes’ decline: altering flow regimes by conversion of the landscape, bio...
متن کاملSoil Microbial Communities in Natural and Managed Cloud Montane Forests
Forest management often results in changes in soil microbial communities. To understand how forest management can change microbial communities, we studied soil microbial abundance and community structure in a natural Chamaecyparis (NCP) forest, a disturbed Chamaecyparis (DCP) forest, a secondary (regenerated) Chamaecyparis (SCP) forest and a secondary (reforested) Cryptomeria (SCD) forest. We a...
متن کاملHow Timber Harvesting and Biodiversity are Managed in Uneven-Aged Forests: A Cluster-Sample Econometric Approach
Nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) landowners have been shown to be more multi-objective by nature than industrial landowners: they give more importance to standing timber and forestland for the amenity values they provide (Newman & Wear, 1993). Among analyses of forest landowner behaviour, the household production framework recognises the benefits associated with forest amenities, as first ap...
