Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
Natural tropical forests are being cleared at an alarming rate and timber harvesting products large areas of secondary forests annually often with negative effects on timber production and environmental values. Increased wood supplies from plantation forests have the potential to reduce pressure on natural forest resources as well as contributing to environmental care and economic advancement for landholders. Opportunities exist to change silvicultural practices in both natural forests and plantations but these must be technically feasible, economically viable and socially acceptable. Many scientists have collaborated in the CIFOR/Japan Rehabilitation of Degraded Tropical Forest Ecosystems Project and undertaken research in West Africa, Southeast Asia and South America. They aimed to evaluate forest harvesting and fire impacts, to develop methods to rehabilitate logged-over forests and degraded forest lands, and to improve silvicultural techniques in plantations. The results of this project and similar research by other organisations are brought together in this book in 26 papers to contribute to the sustainable use of forest resources and environmental conservation. |
