Ashton P. S., . Changing values of Malaysian forests: the challenge of biodiversity and its sustainable management. pp. 282-291. ISSN 0128-1283
Abstract
The meaning of the term biodiversity and the challenge of its evaluation are discussed in this paper. Requirements for its conservation within indigenous production forests are weighed in context of the homogeneity of rain forested landscapes for different organisms and the impact of logging on biodiversity. A hypothesis aimed at defining that method of management which can optimize both sustainable timber production and biodiversity conservation is presented for testing by research.
