Alternative criteria to achieve sustainable management of Mezilaurus itauba in ...
Braz, Evaldo Muñoz; Canetti, Aline; Mattos, Patricia Povoa; Basso, Renato Olivir; Figueiredo Filho, AfonsoThe aims of this study were to evaluate the Brazilian law parameters for tropical forest management regarding forest recovery and to propose alternative criteria to achieve sustainability, using Mezilaurus itauba (Meisn.) Taub. ex Mez as case study. The diameter structure was obtained from a 100% forest inventory of a 500 ha forest compartment. The assessment of M. itauba growth, ingrowth and mortality were car...
Criteria to be considered to achieve a sustainable second cycle in Amazon Forest
Braz, Evaldo Muñoz; Mattos, Patricia Povoa; Thaines, Fabio; de Madron, Luc Durrieu; Garrastazu, Marilice Cordeiro; Canetti, AlineRemnant forest structure and increment by diameter class play a decisive role in the recovery volume for the next cutting cycle. Tree species in the Amazon Forest do not present a defined pattern of diameter structure, which is discussed here using Cedrela odorata L. as a case study The aim of this study was to identify, by simulation, recovery from logging in a real situation at three timber production sites, ...
