There is more to responsibly selecting and harvesting wood in a forest<br />
management plan than meets the eye.<br />
A forest management plan is based on detailed calculations e.g. on<br />
the reconstitution rate for the next 30 year rotation and beyond, in<br />
next rotations.<br />
*One way in which scientists record data regarding plant or animal species in an ecosystem<br />
is to sample an area using a technique called a line transect.<br />
Both short-term (felling impact, skid trail<br />
length and GPS positioning, road width,<br />
log yard size, areas to be rehabilitated in<br />
the dry season, accuracy of the forest<br />
harvest inventory…) and long-term<br />
impacts (reconstitution rate of trees<br />
that are harvested) need to be regularly<br />
monitored.<br />
Monitoring extends to our work with the<br />
communities, to assess progress status<br />
and follow up on existing projects.<br />
