The consequences of converting primary forests to agriculture and pasture on soil carbon (C) and nutrient stocks are important, although they are little known in tropical forests. In the Sitapahar forest of Bangladesh, we evaluated soil C and nutrient concentrations and stocks among intact, fragmented, and shifting cultivation sites. We also invest...
Background and aims: Changes in primary forests into agriculture and pasture significantly affect soil carbon (C) and nutrient stocks, but these effects are poorly understood in tropical forests. We i) compared concentrations and stocks of soil C and nutrients among intact, fragmented, and shifting cultivation sites in Sitapahar forest reserve of B...
Natural regeneration and forest successional development are influenced by gap formation in forest stands. Nonetheless, there are limited studies that provide quantitative information on the influence of gaps on forest regeneration. We evaluated characteristics of inner and outer canopy gaps and their effects on natural regeneration in 40 canopy ga...
Natural regeneration in tropical forests is considered an essential part
of forest restoration efforts; however, it is often under-estimated
where the main focus has traditionally been on tree planting. This
study assessed natural regeneration and its potential for the conserva-
tion of native tree species in Sitapahar Forest Reserve, Bangladesh...
Tropical forests play a significant role in sequestrating and storing atmospheric carbon di-oxide (CO2) emissions. However, estimation of forest carbon (C) stocks in relation to changes in forest structure and disturbances are less studied. We estimated forest C stocks in live trees, saplings, lianas, deadwood, forest floor, and soil in Sitapahar n...
