Allometric equations were used to estimate AGB of trees, while the surface area of logging infrastructures and the unit area value (ha−1) of AGB for the forest zone of Cameroon permitted the calculation of AGB damaged by logging.
In the Upper Florentine there were plans to log 15 coupes (areas of logging) within a three year period.
The increase in longitudinal ground contact associated with increased log diameter is likely caused by the higher load per unit area of thicker logs, making them sink more readily.
The above-ground carbon recovered (Recov_{p,t}) (MgC·ha(^{-1})) at time t in the logged area of the logging unit p is then : begin{aligned} Recov_{p,t} = min left( Ext_p+Dam_p text (t-t0_p) times frac{Ext_p+Dam_p}{RT_p}right) end{aligned} (25)When (t-t0_p le RT_p) (i.e. before recovery time), the logged area stores carbon with a rate (dfrac{Ext_p+Dam_p}{RT_p}).
The within-plot variable was surface area of coniferous logs ha−1, since this was the main substrate for a majority of the bryophyte species found.
This suggests that further technology advances are needed in the area of well logging for this type of applications.
The World Wildlife Fund has been in the process of conserving the park since the 1980s, including ridding the area of the logging business.
After statistically controlling for the length of maternal galleries, the surface area of the log, and phloem thickness, the effect of overwintering treatment on body volume differed significantly, albeit marginally, between males and females (Fig. 3c and Table 2; sex × treatment interaction: F2,3012 = 3.01, P = 0.0496).
The models given by Eqs. 6 and 7 for percent area change and ratio of log areas were not adequate.
It has been shown that clouded leopards are present in areas of heavy logging and high human activity, with suggestions that home range size may be larger in such habitats [ 4] and consequently, densities lower.
