This paper presents the results of nearly five years of research in one of the least disturbed dry forests in Nicaragua, the country with the largest proportion of dry forest areas in Central America. Floristic, structural and dynamic aspects of dry deciduous and gallery forest stands are present...

STREK is an acronym of "Development of Silvicultural Techniques for the Regeneration of logged-over rain forets in East Kalimantan". The objectives of this project were to develop management rules leading to sustained productivity of the forests in this area, which are the main suppliers of wood ...
In the Guarani preservation area 100 ha of forest land was cut to evaluate harvest impact in natural subtropical forest. Two treatments were applied: “commercial logging” in which the logging contractor works in the traditional way, and “improved harvest” in which trees are selected and the skidd...

This study characterised plant regeneration in four old logging roads (700-1 000 m long) in selectively logged forests in lowland Costa Rica, 12-17 years after abandonment. Sets of 4 m2 plots were laid out at 20 m intervals in three distinct microhabitats: road track (topsoil eliminated), road ed...
