Abstract
In this paper, the physical damages of logging activities using Urus MIII forest skylines on residual trees and seedlings were evaluated through comparison between harvesting operations took place in winter and summer seasons in Artvin region. In order to achieve our aims, both in winter and summer, 4 representative plots were taken in the harvesting areas using Urus MIII skyline. Physical damages caused by logging to residual trees and seedling were noted. Damage classes for the residual trees were divided into 4 categories as (0:no injury, 1:light injury, 2:medium injury, 3:heavy injury) and 5 categories for the seedlings as (0:no injury, 1:light injury, 2:medium injury, 3:heavy injury, 4:dead trees). As a result, it has been concluded that logging activities on snowy terrain during winter caused less damage on residual trees and seedling than that of the logging during summer season
