• W2002063656 abstract "Indigenous forests are declining throughout southern Africa, partly because of exogenous disturbances such as harvesting of forest resources. We evaluate the influence of colonial logging and present-day harvesting of pole-size trees (2–15 cm dbh), used for construction and fuelwood, on the structure and composition of iGxalingenwa forest in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. This forest has a distinctive physiognomy, with a thicket-like understorey and an emergent layer of primarily coniferous Podocarpus spp. These emergent trees represent individuals that were too small to be harvested during the colonial period. We argue that the dense angiosperm-dominated understorey arose in gaps created by logging, which allowed greater light levels at the forest floor. The understorey has since been intensively harvested (36% of available stems) for pole-sized stems, including canopy species, effectively suppressing the advanced regeneration as well as the replacement of the senescing canopy and emergent tree populations. The harvesting intensity of pole-sized stems is related to the species, size, and availability of trees. Few straight pole-sized stems are available among the understorey species and typically straight-stemmed canopy species are opportunistically harvested. Examination of community composition further suggests that, without management intervention, this forest will have a reduced stature, a thicket-like physiognomy, and be less diverse and less dominated by conifers. To rescue iGxalingenwa forest from this successional path requires a reduction in harvesting pressure on seedlings and saplings of species that normally dominate the canopy layer, many of which (Podocarpus falcatus, Ptaeroxylon obliquum and Calodendrum capense) appear to have declining populations. The effects of commercial logging a century ago still persist and are being compounded by subsistence harvesting with significant changes to forest physiognomy and composition and the possibility of arrested succession." @default.
