Abstract

Karyati, Ipor IB, Jusoh I, Wasli ME. 2018. Tree stand floristic dynamics in secondary forests of different ages in Sarawak, Malaysia. Biodiversitas 19: 767-773. Succession is a series sequential processes of the development of floristic community which involves changes in community structure, species composition and diversity over time. The information on tree stand floristic dynamics of various stages of succession in secondary forests in Malaysia is currently lacking. This study was conducted to determine tree stand structure, floristic composition, and species diversity in various stages of secondary forest development in the study areas. A total of 997, 1,842, and 834 tree stems with diameter at breast height (DBH) of > 5 cm were recorded in one-hectare-plots of 5, 10, and 20 year old secondary forests, respectively. The ten most common species in 5 and 10 year old of secondary forests consisted mostly of light demanding species. In the 20 year old secondary forest, these species did not exist. Macaranga gigantea was the most dominant tree species in the 5 and 10 year old secondary forests in terms of basal area and volume per hectare. The most common species, based on density, basal area, volume, and Importance Value Index (IVi), in the 20 year old secondary forest was Adinandra dumosa. The diversity and richness indices of the 10 year old secondary forest were the highest among all study sites.

Abstract

Abstract. Karyati, Ipor IB, Jusoh I, Wasli ME. 2019. Allometric equations to estimate the above-ground biomass of trees in the tropical secondary forests of different ages. Biodiversitas 20: 2427-2436. The allometric equations for trees of secondary forests of different ages in abandoned lands after shifting cultivation are still rarely available. The objective of this study was to develop allometric equations to estimate the above-ground biomass (AGB) of trees (DBH of > 5 cm) in the tropical secondary forest of different ages, namely 5, 10, and 20 years after abandonment. The selected trees in this study represented the dominant and rare species and DBH classes in each study site. The trunk dry biomass and AGB showed strong correlations (adjusted R2= 0.59-0.95) with diameter at breast height (DBH) and height. The leaf and branch dry biomass had weak correlations with height (adjusted R2=0.36-0.50). The developed allometric equations were suitable for trees of secondary forests of different ages, because the selected samples used in the destructive method were based on a field inventory data of forest structure and floristic composition.
