In the frame work of the STREK project, growth and mortality rates were analysed in both primary forest and after interventions such as logging or liberation thinning in logged-over forest. Dipterocarps, the dominant family in the upper storey and the major commercial species, were the particular...

Growth and mortality patterns before and after logging
The CIRAD-Forest Research Programme on the dynamics of humid tropical forests has been in operation since 1974 in collaboration with various national forest research institutes. Research is carried out on a network of experimental plots, of which the most important are in Africa (Mopri, Irobo and...

The response of the tropical forest stand to silviculture operations
Phenological observations have been carried out on all the dipterocarps (except the genera Vatica and Hopea) recorded on 20 ha of mixed lowland dipterocarp forest in the Berau district (Kalimantan Timur, Indonesia). More particularly, a fruiting peak was observed at the end of January 1995. Altho...

Structure and diversity of dipterocarps in a lowland dipterocarp forest in East Kalimantan
Reduced-impact logging (RIL) and conventional techniques (CNV) were compared in a mixed dipterocarp hill forest in Malinau, East Kalimantan. Damage was evaluated using pre- and post-harvesting assessments in 24 one-hectare sample plots. RIL techniques nearly halved the number of trees destroyed (...

Research on logging: reduced-impact logging in Indonesian Borneo: some results confirming the need for new silvicultural prescriptions
This study is a part of the Reduced-Impact Logging (RIL) studies constituting a developmental phase within a long term research strategy in Bulungan research Forest, East Kalimantan. The sylviculture component of the project was to start logging experiments, focusing on the implementation of RIL ...

Research on logging: cost-benefit analysis of reduced-impact logging in a lowland Dipterocarp forest in Malinau, East Kalimantan
This chapter provides a brief overview of the reduced impact logging (RIL) as one of the main objectives of the first phase of the Bulungan research project. This activity was conducted in response to a question whether timber harvesting can be compatible with other forest services, values and fu...

Research on logging: comparison of reduced-impact logging and conventional logging techniques
This case study covers work in the Malinau catchment in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, a vast area of primary and secondary forest with scattered villages. The project has evolved to focus on key factors underlying poverty and forest loss. Inappropriate harvesting is reducing biodiversity, limiting ...
