Guariguata, M.R.Nasi, RobertKanninen, M.[Forest degradation: it is not a matter of new definitions]Forest degradation: it is not a matter of new definitions

We discuss the main ecological factors that influence tree recruitment in neotropical moist-and wet forests within the context of timber management based on selective logging. We argue that setting aside protection areas in managed forests as a way to preserve ecological processes may not be suff...


Guariguata, M.R.Pinard, M.A.[Ecological knowledge of regeneration from seed in neotropical forest trees: implications for natural forest management]Ecological knowledge of regeneration from seed in neotropical forest trees: implications for natural forest management

Short-term growth responses in individuals of four commercial tree species (Laetia procera, Simarouba amara, Tapirira guianensis, and Vochysia ferruginea) were evaluated one and two years after `liberation thinning' in a young (4.5-year-old), dense secondary forest stand located in an agricultura...


Guariguata, M.R.[Early response of selected tree species to liberation thinning in a young secondary forest in Northeastern Costa Rica]Early response of selected tree species to liberation thinning in a young secondary forest in Northeastern Costa Rica

In the past decade, understanding of the importance and role of monitoring in tropical forest management has changed significantly. Monitoring is no longer the exclusive purview of forest managers and scientists. Now local people are working with professionals to develop and implement programs to...

Herrero-Jáuregui, C.Guariguata, M.R.Cárdenas, D.Vilanova, E.Robles, M.Licona, J.C.Nalvarte, W.[Assessing the extent of "conflict of use" in multipurpose tropical forest trees: a regional view]Assessing the extent of "conflict of use" in multipurpose tropical forest trees: a regional view

The relationship between tropical forests and global climate change has so far focused on mitigation, while much less emphasis has been placed on how management activities may help forest ecosystems adapt to this change. This paper discusses how tropical forestry practices can contribute to maint...


Guariguata, M.R.Cornelius, J.P.Locatelli, BrunoForner, C.Sánchez Azofeifa, G.A.[Mitigation needs adaptation: tropical forestry and climate change]Mitigation needs adaptation: tropical forestry and climate change

In the past decade, understanding of the importance and role of monitoring in tropical forest management has changed significantly. Monitoring is no longer the exclusive purview of forest managers and scientists. Now local people are working with professionals to develop and implement programs to...


Evans, K.Guariguata, M.R.[Monitoreo participativo para el manejo forestal en el tropico: una revision de herramientas, conceptos y lecciones aprendidas]Monitoreo participativo para el manejo forestal en el tropico: una revision de herramientas, conceptos y lecciones aprendidas

La relación entre los bosques tropicales y el cambio climático global se ha centrado más en la mitigación, mientras que se ha prestado menos atención a cómo las actividades de manejo pueden ayudar a los ecosistemas forestales a adaptarse a dicho cambio. Este documento discute la manera en que alg...
