Tropical managed Forests Observatory. As the different study sites were independently set up, there is no standardized protocol of measurements. However, it appeared that the same standards were applied at most sites. Forest inventories and biomass computation. Basically, all trees above 10 or 20 cm diameter at breath height (DBH) were tagged and identified to the lowest taxonomical level. Girth measurement at 130 cm height were carried out before, directly and several time after logging. Total biomass D...

Sites location

http://tmfo.org/sites-location/index.html

Tropical managed Forests Observatory. Includes so far 24 experimental sites set up by various institute and research centers around the Tropics. Spreads over three main tropical forests regions: the Amazon basin, the Congo Basin and South East Asia. 490 permanent sample plots (and more to come). 921 ha of forest monitored over 5 to 29 years. Focuses on tropical logged forests and we expect new plots to have a least the below mentioned features:. At least one post-logging inventory.

Tropical managed Forests Observatory. Is a pan-tropical network aiming at understanding the long term effects of logging on tropical forest ecosystems. Encompasses 490 permanent forest plots spread across the Amazon and Congo basins and South East Asia. The network investigates the response of tropical forests to logging, in terms of biomass dynamic and changes in species composition over time. Thanks to the large number of plots,. 493 permanent plots across South America, Africa and South East Asia.
