Guariguata, M.R.Fernández, C.G.Nasi, RobertSheil, DouglasHerrero-Jáuregui, C.Cronkleton, P.Ndoye, O.Ingram, V.[Timber and non-timber forest product extraction and management in the tropics: towards compatibility]Timber and non-timber forest product extraction and management in the tropics: towards compatibility

There is growing consensus that the expanding scope of tropical forestry is not properly reflected in the way students are being trained. Forestry graduates across the tropics remain poorly equipped on how to engage with local stakeholders, on the technical and economic aspects of multiple-use ma...


Guariguata, M.R.Evans, K.[Mejoramiento de la educación forestal universitaria: debe prestarse más atención a los productos forestales no maderables?]Mejoramiento de la educación forestal universitaria: debe prestarse más atención a los productos forestales no maderables?

We discuss the extent of compatibility of timber and non-timber forest product (NTFP) extraction in two neotropical localities from biophysical, social, and institutional perspectives: the community concession forests of the Pete´ n, Guatemala, and extractivist communities in northern Bolivia. In...


Guariguata, M.R.Cronkleton, P.Shanley, P.Taylor, P.L.[The compatibility of timber and non-timber forest product extraction and management]The compatibility of timber and non-timber forest product extraction and management

The success of multiple forest management systems is contingent on a variety of social, economic, biophysical, and institutional factors, including the integration of timber and non-timber forest product (NTFP) extraction and management. Selective logging for timber is increasingly taking place i...


Guariguata, M.R.Licona, J.C.Mostacedo, B.Cronkleton, P.[Damage to Brazil nut trees (Bertholletia excelsa) during selective timber harvesting in Northern Bolivia]Damage to Brazil nut trees (Bertholletia excelsa) during selective timber harvesting in Northern Bolivia

Tropical forests could satisfy multiple demands for goods and services both for present and future generations. Yet integrated approaches to natural forest management remain elusive across the tropics. In this paper we examine one combination of uses: selective harvesting of timber and non-timber...


Guariguata, M.R.García Fernandez, C.Sheil, DouglasNasi, RobertHerrero-Jáuregui, C.Cronkleton, P.Ingram, V.[Compatibility of timber and non-timber forest product management in natural tropical forests: perspectives, challenges, and opportunities]Compatibility of timber and non-timber forest product management in natural tropical forests: perspectives, challenges, and opportunities

In Bolivia’s Northern Amazon, forests long used for the extraction of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) are now experiencing increased logging. The extraction of timber and economically important NTFPs such as Brazil nuts (from the emergent forest tree Bertholletia excelsa) is occurring in the s...


Cronkleton, P.Guariguata, M.R.Albornoz, M.A.[Multiple use forestry planning: Timber and Brazil nut management in the community forests of Northern Bolivia]Multiple use forestry planning: Timber and Brazil nut management in the community forests of Northern Bolivia

Multiple-use forest management, which includes timber, non-timber forest products, and environmental services, is considered a promising tropical conservation and development strategy. In the tri-national frontier region of Madre de Dios (Peru), Acre (Brazil), and Pando (Bolivia) in Western Amazo...


Duchelle, Amy E.Guariguata, M.R.Less, G.Albornoz, M.A.Chavez, A.Melo, T.[Evaluating the opportunities and limitations to multiple use of Brazil nuts and timber in Western Amazonia]Evaluating the opportunities and limitations to multiple use of Brazil nuts and timber in Western Amazonia

The “Proyecto Pavo” is a project dedicated to the conservation of the Ocellated Turkey (Meleagris ocellata) through sustainable use of the species in multiple-use, community-managed forest concessions of the Maya Biosphere Reserve in Petén, Guatemala. Since 2000, the project has conducted selecti...


Baur, E.H.McNab, R.B.Williams, L.E.Ramos, V.H.Radachowsky, J.Guariguata, M.R.[Multiple forest use through commercial sport hunting: lessons from a community-based model from the Petén, Guatemala]Multiple forest use through commercial sport hunting: lessons from a community-based model from the Petén, Guatemala

Constraints in making multiple use forest management a more widespread land use type across the tropics still prevail. Technical and managerial capacities usually differ for different forest products, market opportunities and degrees of market knowledge. Local communities or small-scale forest op...
