Forests and Water in Northern Thailand
INTRODUCTION Everyone knows that forest is the source of water for all people who live on Thai soil. We do not have any other source of water in Thailand ... [the forest] provides for underground water storage, making the ground moist as a benefit for all people... The result of cutting forest is the destruction of the water source of the Thai people. (Royal Forest Department/Suan Pa Sirikit, 1...
متن کاملDietary flexibility aids Asian earthworm invasion in North American forests.
On a local scale, invasiveness of introduced species and invasibility of habitats together determine invasion success. A key issue in invasion ecology has been how to quantify the contribution of species invasiveness and habitat invasibility separately. Conventional approaches, such as comparing the differences in traits and/or impacts of species between native and/or invaded ranges, do not det...
متن کاملDispersal of fig pollinators in Asian tropical rain forests
Fig pollinators (Agaonidae, Chalcioidea) lay their eggs in fig inflorescences (Ficus, Moraceae). Reproductive success for both partners is thus largely dependent on the dispersal of these tiny wasps. Some are known to cover substantial distances (> 10 km) using wind above the canopy. However, fig ecology is extremely varied, and hence one might also expect a diversity of pollinator dispersal st...
متن کاملSustainability of the Selection System in Northern Hardwood Forests
The selection silvicultural system is widely recommended for sustainable management of North American cool-temperate tolerant hardwood forests, yet concerns about high-grading, excessive removals, and adequate regeneration persist. We used field measurement of 96 recently harvested stands in the Great Lakes Region of the United States, under corporate, nonindustrial private, and state ownership...
متن کاملWildland Management of Phytophthora ramorum in Northern California Forests
In early 2006 we implemented a series of comparative silvicultural treatments aimed at managing the spread of Phytophthora ramorum Werres, de Cock & Man in’t Veld by reducing inoculum densities in isolated infestations on one public and three private properties in southern Humboldt County. These treatments, which took place on over 56 forested ha, are the first attempts at large-scale, stand-le...
