Impacts of trade on growth, distribution and the environment in forest communities
The structure and species composition of the primary lowland dipterocarp forest in Berau is presented. This study mainly focuses on the primary forest based on 3 control plots of 4 ha each, totalling 12 ha, where 93% of the trees (dbh (10cm) were identified at the taxa level. Tree identification ...
One of the objectives of the STREK project was to propose silvicultural methods able to increase forest production, especially in logged-over areas, The area RKL 1 which was logged 15 years ago was the most suitable zone to implement those trials. This study aims to describe the silvicultural tre...

W.J. Eggeling established several 1.86 ha permanent sample plots (PSPs) in Budongo Forest, Uganda, during the 1930s and 1940s. Using data from these plots he described Budongo's vegetation within a comprehensive ‘successional’ framework. Some of these plots have been re-measured on several occasi...

The complex dynamic interactions between land resources and society have to be taken into account when planning land use and managing land resources. Simulation models and participatory modeling can be ideal tools to improve our understanding of these complex interactions. For several decades, la...
