To estimate carbon emissions from selective logging in Central Africa, we employed the
reduced-impact logging for carbon emissions reductions (RIL-C) protocol to quantify …

Adoption of reduced‐impact logging (RIL) methods could reduce CO2 emissions by 30–
50% across at least 20% of remaining tropical forests. We developed two cost effective and …

Selective logging causes at least half of the emissions from tropical forest degradation.
Reduced-impact logging for climate (RIL-C) is proposed as a way to maintain timber …

We define two implementation levels for reduced-impact logging for climate mitigation (RIL-
C) practices for felling, skidding, and hauling in dipterocarp forest concessions of East and …

Reduced Impact Logging (RIL) has traditionally been described as a set of forest
management practices that reduce logging impacts and improve productivity. In this paper …

The focus of land-use related efforts in developing countries to reduce carbon emissions has
been on slowing deforestation, yet international agreements are to reduce emissions from …

Selective logging is an important socio-economic activity in the Congo Basin but one with
associated environmental costs, some of which are avoidable through the use of reduced …

Improved forest management practices in tropical forests managed for timber can make a
large contribution to climate change mitigation efforts (Houghton and Nassikas, 2018, Putz …

Abstract On the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, communities (ejidos) that selectively log their
forests help reduce deforestation and are an important source of timber for national and …

Within the framework of the current REDD+ initiative, 1 there is an urgent need for
information to guide the development and implementation of strategies for the reduction of …
