Abstract
In the August of 2009, Duona forest road was seriously destroyed by Morakot typhoon. This study aim to investigate floristic composition and structure of Landslides in the Duona Hot Spring Stream Watershed for establishing successional pathway of forest ecosystem. For accelerating nature succession of landslides, seedlings of shade-tolerant trees were selected to plant in landslides with different light degree. We also try to find new method of planting in Landslides and promote the survival rate of plant. This study focused on the monitoring and evaluation practices of ecological effectivess and service function of 4 plantations which had been manipulated under the concept of multi-silvicultural system at Taimali Research Center, TFRI, eastern part of Taiwan. 4 major works including regulation and actually setting ofbiodiversity and soil-water resource conservation effectiveness monitoring plots on under-managed plantation of Taiwan fir plantation, setting of growth investigation plots on inter-planting plantation of Cinammon micranthan, on-spot survey and plots setting on practices evalutation of semi-natural plantation and repeated monitoring of borad-leaved trees mixed stand established by ecological silvicultural pracitces. 2~3 reseach papers will be published in the progrossing of this study to explain the developing history and improving process of multi -  silvicultural system,and the current progressing results, and helpful to forestry companies, experimental forest, and national forest under the bureau of forestry.By the way, a training program including instrument opperation and conceptual model explanation focused on forest investigation and the monitoring on soil-water resource conservation and wildlife population dynamics will developed for forestry colleague to transfer the practical experience of multi-silvicultual practices.
