Orchids diversity on six forest types in Wasur National Park, Merauke, Papua, Indonesia. Asian J For 5: 101-110. Orchidaceae is one of the two largest families of flowering plants. Wasur National Park is the habitat of many orchid species and one of the in-situ conservation areas in Papua that is very suitable for orchids. This research aimed to determine the orchid species in Seksi Pengelolaan Taman Nasional Wilayah III (SPTN III) Wasur, Wasur National Park, Merauke District, Papua Province, Indonesia and to determine the distribution of orchid species in six different types of forest. This research was conducted using the exploratory method. A total of 25 orchid species belonging to 11 genera have been identified from SPTN III Wasur. Monsoon forest is the type of forest with the highest number of orchid species, with 15 orchid species. It is followed by savanna with ten species, Melaleuca forest with ten species, woodland forest with nine species, riparian forest with six species, and Melaleuca-Eucalyptus forest with 5 species. Dendrobium smillieae and Dendrobium rigidum are the most widely distributed epiphytic orchid species, and occur in almost all forest types. However, the terrestrial orchids, Geodorum densiflorum and Apostasia wallichii, are only found in the monsoon forest.","PeriodicalId":115036,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Forestry","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126370281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is limited information about the precise quantification of Aboveground Biomass (AGB) of species-specific allometric equations for shrubs and small trees. Thirty Galiniera saxifraga plants were selected to develop species-specific allometric biomass equations. Biometric parameters, including the diameter at the Breast Height (DBH), height and crown area were predictive variables that were measured for each individual plant. AGB was measured through a destructive method. The AGB was correlated to biometric variables using regression analysis. The species-specific allometric models, with DBH and crown area as predictors (DBH-crown area models), accounted for 90% of the variation in the AGB of G. saxifraga. The DBH-crown area model was adequate for predicting the AGB for G. saxifraga with the adjusted R2 value 0.9 and AIC values was 47.37. The specific allometric equation developed for the Gesha-Sayilem Afromontane forest can be used in similar moist forests in Ethiopia to implement Reduced Emission from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD+) activities to benefit the local communities from carbon trade.","PeriodicalId":115036,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Forestry","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122933993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Relationships of tree height-diameter at breast height (DBH) and crown diameter-DBH of Acacia auriculiformis plantation. Asian J For 5: 71-75. Measuring the height and crown diameter in the field is time-consuming and needs more logistical efforts. Thus, in this study, we have focused on evaluating the relationship between height and crown diameter with commonly and less effortlessly measured parameters such as diameter at breast height (DBH) to reduce the inventory costs and time by using these models. Different correlation-regression models for predicting tree height and crown diameter from DBH were developed for Acacia auriculiformis species at Char Kukri-Mukri Island in the Bhola district of Bangladesh. To achieve the goal, DBH, total height, and crown diameter of each tree were recorded. Coefficient of determination (R2) and p-value was used for evaluating the models. The correlation coefficients between DBH and height and between DBH and crown diameter showed positive and significant relationships. The calculated p-value and R2 value between DBH and height and between DBH and crown diameter in the correlation-regression analysis revealed that linear regression models were best fitted in both cases. The study concluded that the tree height could be estimated by the mean of DBH and vice versa, as well as crown diameter could be estimated by the mean of DBH and vice versa.","PeriodicalId":115036,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Forestry","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127142849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effect of low light condition on the growth and carbon use of legume seedlings. Asian J For 5: 51-59. Plants exhibit flexible changes of morphological and physiological traits to adapt to low light environments. However, the interaction between growth, functional traits among plant organs, and non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) concentration to determine the adaptation strategies remain unclear. Three legume- and shade-intolerant species, Robinia pseudoacacia (L.), Falcataria moluccana (Miq.), and Acacia mangium (Willd.) were grown under full light (open) and 15% of light availability (shade). Changes in shoot length, diameter, organ respiration rates, and NSCs concentration were observed throughout 6 months of the growing period. Only R. pseudoacacia developed longer (13.67%) and bigger (26.61%) shoots in open sites than shade sites. Specific Leaf Area (SLA) and Specific Root Area (SRA) were bigger in shade than in open site for all species (SLA=±2 times; SRA=±1-4 times). Dry mass, respiration rates, and NSCs in R. pseudoacacia were allocated more to the roots but were more to the leaves in F. moluccana and A. mangium. Based on the interactions among morphological and physiological parameters, our results show that different legume species develop specific growth, morphological traits and carbon use (NSCs) under shade conditions, which exhibit flexibility changes as part of adaptation strategy to the low-light environment.","PeriodicalId":115036,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Forestry","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128485987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asian J For 5: 8-16. Availability of accurate data on timber harvest is very important for sustainable forest management. These data are not readily available, making forest management more complex. This study aimed at investigating the rate of timber harvest, illegal activities and its impacts on forest conservation in Osun State Forest Reserves. The selected reserves were Shasha Forest Reserve (SFR), Ago-Owu Forest Reserve (AFR), and Ikeji-Ipetu Forest Reserve (IFR). Data were collected using two sets of semi-structured questionnaires. One for the forest community dwellers and the other for forest officers. Simple random sampling was used to select 120 respondents from the population of concessionaires, saw millers, rural community dwellers, taungya farmers and the government officers in the study area. Secondary data was collected and compiled from the State Forestry Department to provide results for timber harvested only in SFR from January to July, 2019. The results revealed that SFR is under massive timber exploitation, as illegal logging and timber processing are the most prevalent driver of exploitation in this area; while AFR and IFR are degraded forest reserves marred with grazing and poaching, and illegal logging, respectively. The impacts of the illegal activities on forest conservation were categorized under economic, social, and environmental impacts. The most exploited species in SFR were Celtis spp. (3024 stems), Ricinodendron heudelotii (1789 stems), and the least exploited was Anthocleista spp. (3 stems). The study showed that many economic tree species that contribute to national development and rural livelihood have been exploited from the study sites and therefore recommend that timber harvest be carried out on a sustainable basis.","PeriodicalId":115036,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Forestry","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123020003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New Forest Code effects over smallholder’s intention to trade non-timber forest products. Asian J For 21: 41-45. The Brazilian new Forest Code (NFC) allows the sustainable economic use of one of its main mechanisms for native vegetation protection: the Legal Reserves. Smallholders' intention to trade non-timber forest products (NTFP) from such areas was accessed. Data were collected through 350 in-person surveys in two municipalities from Bahia, Brazil. Outcomes showed that more than half of the respondents do not intend to trade NTFP from their Legal Reserve areas and, the lack of knowledge about the process to obtain government permission for the economic use of these areas, was the main reason gave to justify it. Further, higher household incomes showed a negative correlation with the intention. Incentives from public or private policies and dissemination about the steps needed to obtain permission for Legal Reserve’s sustainable use are needed for engaging smallholders in NTFP trade. With these incentives, it would be possible to increase the NFC potential for adding economic value to the protected native vegetation and for linking conservation with the economic development of rural areas inhabitants. Thus, these outcomes add up to previous findings of the benefits of NTFP trade, and in terms of practice and policy, they can help in the development of environmental policies that incentivize the NTFP trade, contributing to increase landholders’ incomes and to the NFC compliance.","PeriodicalId":115036,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Forestry","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121564468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
