The effects of artificial disturbance on the structure and floristics of cool temperate rainforest patches in eastern Tasmania were investigated over a 2-year period. The effectiveness of buffer zones of varying widths in protecting the rainforests from nearby logging disturbance was also assessed. The width and nature of the eucalypt forest-rainforest boundary was also examined. Where the boundary of the rainforest is coincident with a sharp topographic feature the boundary is also sharp and is often less than 40 m wide. Where the boundary is not coincident with a sharp topographic feature the boundary may be diffuse and greater than 40 m wide, or, if there has been a recent fire, the boundary may be very sharp. In all cases, a buffer zone at least 40 m wide is considered sufficient to protect the rainforest from adjacent disturbance.
