Our data on species diversity showed a decrease from the cut forest at 5m to the inside of the forest at 50m . Measurements of dbh in the cut forest were nonexistent as there were no trees present. Measurements of dbh along the transect line progressing further into the forest gradually increased. This increase was very modest as there were few trees along the transect line. This small sample size may not be representative of the entire forest.
Further study is needed.
