Arthropod Abundance

AbstractThe effects of harvest-created canopy gaps in bottomland hardwood forests on arthropod abundance and, hence, the foraging ecology of birds are poorly understood. I predicted that arthropod abundance would be high near edges of group-selection harvest gaps and lower in the surrounding forest, and that male Hooded Warblers (Wilsonia citrina) foraging near gaps would find more prey per unit time than those foraging in the surrounding forest. In fact, arthropod abundance was greater >100 m from a gap edge than at 0–30 m or 30–100 m from an edge, due to their abundance on switchcane (Arundinaria gigantea); arthropods did not differ in abundance among distances from gaps on oaks (Quercus spp.) or red maple (Acer rubrum). Similarly, Hooded Warbler foraging attack rates were not higher near gap edges: when foraging for fledglings, attack rate did not differ among distances from gaps, but when foraging for themselves, attack rates actually were lower 0–30 m from gap edges than 30–100 m or >100 m from a gap edge. Foraging attack rate was positively associated with arthropod abundance. Hooded Warblers apparently encountered fewer prey and presumably foraged less efficiently where arthropods were least abundant, i.e., near gaps. That attack rates among birds foraging for fledglings were not affected by distance from gap (and hence arthropod abundance) suggests that prey availability may not be limiting at any location across the forest, despite the depressing effects of gaps on arthropod abundance.Efectos de Borde Relacionados con la Cosecha Forestal sobre la Disponibilidad de Presas y el Forrajeo de Wilsonia citrina en un Bosque Leñoso RibereñoResumen. El efecto de la creación de claros en el dosel por la cosecha de árboles en bosques leñosos ribereños sobre la abundancia de artrópodos y por lo tanto sobre la ecología de forrajeo de las aves es poco entendido. En este estudio, predije que la abundancia de artrópodos sería mayor cerca de los bordes de claros producidos por tala selectiva en grupo y menor en el bosque circundante, y que los machos de Wilsonia citrina que forrajean cerca de los claros encontrarían más presas por unidad de tiempo que aquellos que forrajean en el bosque circundante. De hecho, la abundancia de artrópodos fue mayor a más de 100 m del borde de los claros que entre 0 y 30 m o entre 30 y 100 m desde un borde, debido a la abundancia de los artrópodos sobre Arundinaria gigantea. La abundancia de artrópodos sobre Quercus spp o Acer rubrum no fue diferente entre distintas categorías de distancia desde los claros. De manera similar, las tasas de ataque de forrajeo de W. citrina no fueron mayores cerca de los bordes de los claros: cuando se encontraban forrajeando para los polluelos, las tasas de ataque no fueron diferentes entre las distancias desde los claros, pero cuando se encontraban forrajeando para ellos mismos, las tasas de ataque fueron menores entre 0 y 30 m desde el borde de un claro a más de 30 m de un borde de un claro. La tasa de ataques de forrajeo se relacionó positivamente con la abundancia de artrópodos. Aparentemente, W. citrina encontró menos presas y posiblemente forrajeó de una manera menos eficiente donde los artrópodos eran menos abundantes, i.e., cerca de los claros. El hecho de que la tasa de ataque por parte de individuos que estaban forrajeando para sus polluelos no fuera afectada por la distancia a los bordes (y por lo tanto por la abundancia de artrópodos) sugiere que la disponibilidad de presas no parece ser limitante en ningún lugar del bosque, a pesar del efecto negativo de los claros sobre la abundancia de artrópodos.

Different Altitudes

Altitude is one of the factors that affect the growth of bamboo. Bamboo species used in this study was Bambusa vulgaris and Arundinaria gigantea. The objectives of this study are to investigate the effect of altitude to the characteristics of bamboo charcoal harvested from three different altitudes (Lumpangi, Banjarbaru/Martapura, Marabahan). Parameters tested in this study were moisture content, ash content, volatile matter, fixed carbon and calorific value. The result showed that altitute significantly affected the characteristics of bamboo charcoal. Bamboo charcoal from Banjarbaru/Martapura had the best characteristics than the charcoal produced from other locations. The moisture content, ash content, volatile matter, fixed carbon and calorific value of B. vulgaris were 0.77 %; 3.49 %; 8.63 %; 87.11 % and 7,331.05 kal/g. The moisture content, ash content, volatile matter, fixed carbon and calorific value of A. gigantea were 0.19 %; 12.46 %; 4.48 %; 87.11 % and 6,640.69 kal/g, respectively.
