Thirty Years of Research in Kibale National Park, Uganda, Reveals a Complex Picture for Conservation (2003, background): “It is often assumed that the gaps created by logging increase light reaching forest floor or subcanopy, which in turn accelerates growth of existing trees (Fox, 1976; Putz et al., 2000).”
Reduced-impact logging in Indonesian Borneo: some results confirming the need for new silvicultural prescriptions (2003, background): “Moreover, most of the previous studies related to logging damage assessment have been based on a total random sampling which generally failed to address the issue of the high variability of logging intensity in natural forests (Sist et al., 1998a; Putz et al., 2000).”
The future for Sundaic lowland forest birds: long-term effects of commercial logging and fragmentation (2002, unknown): “Logged forests in South-East Asia have experienced very high extraction levels compared to elsewhere in the world (Putz et al. 2000): in Sabah some 120 m3/ha of timber are typically extracted, in Sarawak 90 m(3)/ha and in Peninsular Malaysia 52 m(3)/ha (Johns 1989b, 1996, Marsh and Greer 1992).”
