Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the extent to which tropical forests sustain timber production, retain species, and conserve carbon stocks is examined, and some improvements in tropical forestry and how their implementation can be promoted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retaining Forest Biomass By Reducing Logging Damage
TL;DR: More and larger trees remained undamaged where reducedimpact logging was practiced, hence future biomass increment and yields of marketable timber are expected to be greater in the reduced-impact logging areas than in conventional logging areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved tropical forest management for carbon retention

TL;DR: Using reduced-impact timber-harvesting practices in legally logged tropical forests would reduce global carbon emissions by 0.16 Gt/year at a modest cost and with little risk of "leakage" (increased carbon emissions elsewhere).
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil disturbance and post-logging forest recovery on bulldozer paths in Sabah, Malaysia
TL;DR: In this paper, the extent of soil disturbance associated with bulldozer yarding and the regrowth of woody vegetation on skid trails in selectively logged dipterocarp forest was examined.
Book
Biotic Interactions in the Tropics: Their Role in the Maintenance of Species Diversity
TL;DR: This volume synthesizes the current state of knowledge of tropical biotic interaction, with chapters providing reviews or case studies drawn from research conducted in both Old and New World tropics, including interactions among taxa at all levels.
