Reduced-impact logging and post-harvest management in the Atlantic Forest of Argentina: Alternative approaches to enhance regeneration and growth of canopy trees

Selective logging is the most common method of timber extraction in native tropical and subtropical forests, including the Atlantic Forest of South America. Uncontrolled conventional logging has resulted in impoverished forests that have lost much of their economical value and biodiversity. In poorl...

Uncontrolled conventional logging has resulted in impoverished forests that have lost much of their economical value and biodiversity. In poorly logged forests in sub-tropical Argentina, bamboos colonize felling gaps and inhibit canopy tree regeneration while lianas slow the growth rate of most canopy trees. Reduced impact logging techniques along with post-harvest silvicultural treatments to enhance canopy tree growth and regeneration have been shown to be effective in the Atlantic Forest eco-region, but destructive timber mining practices nevertheless continue. © 2009 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
