Ongoing controversy over logging the ancient Białowieża Forest in Poland symbolizes a global problem for policies and management of the increasing proportion of the earth's intact forest that is subject to postdisturbance logging. We review the extent of, and motivations for, postdisturbance logging in protected and unprotected forests globally. An unprecedented level of logging in protected areas and other places where green‐tree harvest would not normally occur is driven by economic interests and a desire for pest control. To avoid failure of global initiatives dedicated to reducing the loss of species, five key policy reforms are necessary: (1) salvage logging must be banned from protected areas; (2) forest planning should address altered disturbance regimes for all intact forests to ensure that significant areas remain undisturbed by logging; (3) new kinds of integrated analyses are needed to assess the potential economic benefits of salvage logging against its ecological, economic, and social costs; (4) global and regional maps of natural disturbance regimes should be created to guide better spatiotemporal planning of protected areas and undisturbed forests outside reserves; and (5) improved education and communication programs are needed to correct widely held misconceptions about natural disturbances.

不断增加的干扰要求采取新的政策来保护完整的森林

关于砍伐波兰古老的比亚沃维耶阿森林的争论仍在继续，这标志着全球政策和管理问题的全球性问题，即受干扰后伐木的地球完整森林比例的不断增加。我们回顾了全球受保护和不受保护的森林中的灾后伐木的程度和动机。由于经济利益和对害虫控制的渴望，在保护区和通常不会进行绿树采伐的其他地方，伐木达到前所未有的水平。为避免旨在减少物种损失的全球举措失败，必须进行五项关键的政策改革：（1）必须禁止在保护区进行打捞伐木；（2）森林规划应针对所有完整森林解决改变的干扰制度，以确保重要区域不受伐木的干扰；（3）需要新的综合分析方法来评估打捞伐木的生态，经济和社会成本的潜在经济利益；（4）应创建全球和区域自然干扰制度图，以指导更好地保护区和保护区外未受干扰的森林的时空规划；（5）需要改善教育和交流计划，以纠正人们对自然干扰的普遍误解。（4）应创建全球和区域自然干扰制度图，以指导更好地保护区和保护区外未受干扰的森林的时空规划；（5）需要改善教育和交流计划，以纠正人们对自然干扰的普遍误解。（4）应创建全球和区域自然干扰制度图，以指导更好地保护区和保护区外未受干扰的森林的时空规划；（5）需要改善教育和交流计划，以纠正人们对自然干扰的普遍误解。
