The effects of logging on soilchemical properties under tropical rain forest ecosystem are presented. UsingANOVA, a comparison was made on soil chemical properties. A significant loss ofsoil nutrients was observed immediately after logging and recovery wasencouraging for N and exchangeable K but not for soil pH at the topsoil and subsoil.Fertile sites showed relatively slow recovery compared to less fertile sites.
