Summary: Tropical forests play an important role in maintaining the regional rainfall regime and global climate, besides representing a significant stock of carbon. This study aimed at evaluate above-ground biomass (AGB) recovery, after reduced-impact logging (RIL) in a managed forest on the Jari River valley. The data were collected in 15 plots (100 m × 100 m) in the management area of the Jari Florestal Company. To estimate AGB we used a local equation adjusted for forests in the eastern Amazon.
