Co-benefits of sustainable forest management in biodiversity conservation and carbon sequestration.

<h4>Background</h4>Sustainable forest management (SFM), which has been recently introduced to tropical natural production forests, is beneficial in maintaining timber resources, but information about the co-benefits for biodiversity conservation and carbon sequestration is currently lack...
