An important aspect of the sustainable management of tropical rain forests is the maintenance of genetic diversity within populations of commercial tree species. Logging may reduce genetic variation directly and may also affect genetic processes, lea

Summary 1 We evaluate the effects of large-scale disturbance on tropical tree communities by examining the population dynamics of all individuals > 4.9 cm in diameter at breast height (d.b.h.) of 12 tree species over 30 years (1964–94) in lowland t

A simple, flexible, pantropical forest classification framework is proposed to provide a common platform for foresters, vegetation mappers, climatic modellers, biogeographers and plant ecologists. The framework is provided by bioclimatic types, defin

In 1964 a census of all trees > 9.7 cm diameter at breast height (DBH) was conducted on 22 plots totalling 13.2 ha in lowland tropical evergreen rain forest on Kolombangara, Solomon Islands. Over the following 30 yr (1964–1994), populations of all

Study of forest dynamics commonly requires measurement of canopy gap size. Hemispherical photographs can be analysed to provide various measures whereby gaps can be ranked in order of size. For ten artificial gaps in a Bornean tropical rain forest th

Tropical moist forests are currently being altered or destroyed at a rapid rate. A 1980 assessment by the Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO) for all tropical countries has now been superseded for some by new assessments based largely on more re

In mahogany, many of the problems confronting tropical rain forests worldwide are seen in microcosm, yet in some important ways the genus is unique. It is unusual among well-known tropical timbers in having poorly known ecological requirements. Most

Macaranga is a genus in the family Euphorbiaceae, comprising trees, treelets and some lianas - many of which are conspicuous large-leafed pioneers of disturbed habitats. There are 257 species, of which 21 are newly described in this work. Although at
