Evaluations for sustainable forest management: towards an adaptive standard for the evaluation of the ecological sustainability of forest management in Costa Rica
(Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE), 2002)
The evaluation of the sustainability of forest management is an integral measure in the maintenance of production, and the ecological and socioeconomic functions of forest systems and should consider both the fulfillment ...
Litterfall dynamics under different tropical forest restoration strategies in Costa Rica
(2011)
In degraded tropical pastures, active restoration strategies have the potential to facilitate forest regrowth at rates that are faster than natural recovery, enhancing litterfall, and nutrient inputs to the forest floor. ...
Diameter increment patterns among 106 tree species in a logged and silviculturally treated Costa Rican rain forest
(Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE), 1990)
Studies of growth rates of trees in managed neotropical forests have rarely employed complete botanical identification of all species, while published information for Central american lowland rain forests largely concerns ...
Modelling Pentaclethra forest - an important Central American lowland rain forest type - for timber production
(CATIE, 1999-02)
Pentaclethra forest is a major component of the Central American Atlantic Moist Forest Ecoregion (CAAMFE). It covers most of the Costa Rican Atlantic Lowland region and parts of Panama and Nicaragua. Although soils are ...
Ecosystem biodiversity in lowland tropical rain forests of Central America: characterisation and applications to land management
(CATIE, 1999)
El nivel de ecosistemas es importante en la medición de biodiversidad y en la planificación tanto para la conservación, como para el manejo forestal. No obstante, estudios sistemáticos de la biodiversidad de ecosistemas ...
Stand dynamics in a logged and silviculturally treated Costa Rican rain forest, 1988-1996
(ELSEVIER, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 1999)
The lowland rain forests of Central America are poorly known from the standpoint of management for timber production. We studied the stand dynamics of a logged Costa Rican rain forest under three different regimes of ...
