Abbreviations: d.b.h., diameter at breast height; logging intensity, percentage of trees removed above MCD; Max, maximum; MCD, minimum cutting diameter at breast height; Min, minimum; X, no result because of population collapse. Maximum calculated as the impact one year after the last logging and minimum as the impact one year before the last logging event.
Standard deviations of control population are 0.003 (4%), 5.6 (2%), 5.5 (3%) and 0.003 (4%) for basal area, number of individuals, number of reproductive individuals, and extracted basal area, respectively.
