A gap in the woods: Wood density knowledge as impediment to develop sustainable use in Atlantic Forest

2018-09-01

Abstract excerpt

To achieve sustainable forest management, forests scientists and managers require ecological data such as tree size, growth rate, wood density, species abundance and forest structure. Lack of specific knowledge on these features may compromise the sustainable use of natural resources. Considering tree species, wood density may be considered as the most integrative trait, usually associated with two major growth sy...
