Thresholds for adding degraded tropical forest to the conservation estate by Ewers, RM, Orme, CDL, Pearse, WD, Vollans, M, Slade, E, Riutta, T, Malhi, Y, Lewis, OT, Hemprich-Bennett, D

“…Here, we present empirically defined thresholds for categorising the conservation value of logged forests, using one of the most comprehensive assessments of taxon responses to habitat degradation in any tropical forest environment. We analysed the impact of logging intensity on the individual occurrence patterns of 1,681 taxa belonging to 86 taxonomic orders and 126 functional groups in Sabah, Malaysia. …”
