The contribution of carbon13 isotopic tracing of soil organic matter to the reconstitution of forest--savannah successions in the coastal zone of Gabon
Monitoring permanent plots established in pure natural stands of Okoumé (Aucoumea klaineana) in the coastal zone of Gabon from 1987 to 1997 allows reconstitution of the development pattern of such stands from their establishment to the so-called exploitable stage (around 60 years), and assessment...

Monitoring and research activities may hinder rather than improve conservation in tropical countries. Those concerned with conservation - particularly academics and aid agencies - too often overlook the practical realities of achieving conservation in the tropics. As a result, many initiatives di...
