Studies on low regeneration capacity after selective logging in tropical rain forests

Country
Malaysia

Description

[Synopsis]

It was suggested that hill forests after selective logging should be maintained for the regeneration of Dipterocarp species. Although there were many saplings after selective logging, they could not become established around logging roads and grow under shaded canopy. Removal of stemless palms was effective in improving the light condition for shaded saplings.
