Intensified forestry to meet rising demand for timber is placing biodiversity at risk. The aim of this project is to develop and field-test a novel framework to reconcile forest conservation with production. The project seeks to resolve whether intensive forestry coupled with a large reserve network produces better biodiversity outcomes than less intensive forestry with fewer reserves. I will integrate abundances of plant and animal species with forest industry timber yield data in a uniquely suited landscape. Survey results will be synthesised with global data on biodiversity responses to forestry. This research will benefit the forest industry by providing guidelines that improve conservation outcomes while maintaining timber yield.

为满足日益增长的木材需求而加强的林业正将生物多样性置于危险之中。该项目的目的是开发和实地测试一种新的框架，使森林保护与生产相协调。该项目旨在解决集约化林业与大型储备网络相结合是否比储量较少的集约化林业产生更好的生物多样性结果。我将把丰富的动植物物种与森工木材产量数据结合在一起，形成一个独特的景观。调查结果将与全球关于生物多样性对林业的反应的数据相结合。这项研究将通过提供指导方针，在保持木材产量的同时改善保护结果，从而使森林业受益。
