Arthropods as bioindicators of sustainable forest management, with a focus on plantation forests (2009, background): “Davis (2000) found that reduced-impact thinning hosted a more diverse dung beetle assemblage than conventional thinning in a lowland diptocarp forest in Malaysian Borneo.”
Tropical forest recovery: legacies of human impact and natural disturbances (2003, background): “2001), application of reduced-impact logging techniques (Davis 2000), and restoration of abandoned farmland to establish wildlife corridors and re-establish forests (Janzen 1988; Lamb et al.”
Effect of forest fragmentation on dung beetle communities and functional consequences for plant regeneration (2003, background): “…Escobar 2000, Davis et al. 2000, 2001, Halffter and Arellano 2002), and consequently they are very sensitive to forest disturbances such as logging (Davis 2000), forest conversion to plantations, crops and pasture (Nummelin and Hanski 1989, Halffter et al. 1992, Davis et al. 2001), and forest…”
