Abstract:Gap size is one of the main variables used to quantify the environmental consequences of forest management that can help in quantifying and monitoring changes in clearing areas. This study aimed to characterize gaps from harvested individuals, quantify the resulting forest damage, and adjust equations to describe gaps after tree cutting. Our research was conducted in three phytophysiognomies of the eastern Pará Amazon. We performed descriptive analyses using data on gap size and damage to the remaining individ… Show more
