Effects of reduced-impact logging and forest physiognomy on bat populations of lowland Amazonian forest

2008-02-01

Abstract excerpt

1. As human population size increases, demand for natural resources will increase. Logging pressure related to increasing demands continues to threaten remote areas of Amazonian forest. A harvest protocol is required to provide renewable timber resources that meet consumer needs while minimizing negative effects on biodiversity and ecosystem services. Reduced-impact logging (RIL) may be a viable option to achieve...
