Ecological impacts of different harvesting scenarios for temperate evergreen rain forest in southern Chile-A simulation experiment
(Elsevier, 2007)
Current forestry practices in Chile largely rely on exotic tree plantations, and limited management experiences are available for the species-rich native evergreen rain forests. Yet, conservationists and forest scientists ...
Modifying harvesting time as a tool to reduce nutrient export by timber extraction: a case study in planted teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) forests in Costa Rica
(2016)
Despite its low nutrient concentration, the high amount of biomass accumulated in the tree stem makes it an important nutrient sink. Hence, nutrient loss through timber removal at harvesting is a major cause of nutrient ...

Forest certification in Amazonia: standards matter
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2008)
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification promises international consumers that `green-label` timber has been logged sustainably. However, recent research indicates that this is not true for ipe (Tabebuia spp.), ...
Carbon pool dynamics after variable retention harvesting in Nothofagus pumilio forests of Tierra del Fuego
(Springer Nature, 2023-01-23)
Background It is necessary to determine the implications for managing forest stands using variable retention harvesting for maintaining carbon and for calculating the effects of different harvesting practices on above‑ and ...
Diversity of macroscopic basidiomycetes in reforestation areas of Eucalyptus spp.Diversidade de basidiomicetos macroscópicos em áreas de reflorestamento de Eucalyptus spp.
(2021-01-01)
Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus spp.) Is the most widely used genus of forest trees for commercial purposes worldwide. One of the biggest concerns for foresters is the waste left in the area after cutting the eucalyptus. In an ...
How rare is too rare to harvest? Management challenges posed by timber species occurring at low densities in the Brazilian Amazon
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
Tropical forests are characterized by diverse assemblages of plant and animal species compared to temperate forests. Corollary to this general rule is that most tree species, whether valued for timber or not, occur at low ...
