DOI: 10.1007/s11676-020-01192-w
Abstract: Stocking and structural composition of a deciduous broad-leaved forest were determined to predict coarse woody debris quantity by quantifying the empirical relationships between these two attributes. The most ecologically significant families by stem density were… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2019.07.012
Abstract: Abstract Landscapes of fear have become widely studied in the northern hemisphere, but are still largely understudied in the more complex, diverse carnivore-prey communities of Africa. Habitat changes brought about by a megaherbivore, the African… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2018.02.010
Abstract: Abstract Timber harvests may facilitate ant invasions of forested landscapes, fostering interactions between non-native and native ants. Harvests that include removal of low-value woody biomass as forest bioenergy feedstock may reduce residual coarse woody debris,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/forsci/fxab023
Abstract: Coarse woody debris (CWD) is a meaningful contributor to forest carbon cycles, wildlife habitat, and biodiversity and can influence wildfire behavior. Using airborne laser scanning (ALS), we map CWD across a range of natural forest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjfr-2018-0064
Abstract: The conic-paraboloid volume equation is receiving increased use with downed coarse woody material (CWM), but the consequences for taper have not been identified mathematically. Requiring that subdivision of a conic-paraboloid yields two smaller conic-paraboloids leads… read more here.

DOI: 10.17221/3102-jfs
Abstract: The amount, variability and quality of coarse woody debris (CWD) in an oak-dominated natural forest reserve in Austria were studied in 2006. The average volume of CWD (snags and logs) was 107.3 m 3 /ha,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f8020037
Abstract: More intensive removal of woody biomass for the bio-economy will disrupt litter and succession cycles. Especially at risk is the retention of fine and coarse woody debris (FWD and CWD), crucial factors in forest biodiversity… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f8080292
Abstract: Although coarse woody debris (CWD) is important for soil functioning, the mechanism which affects soil properties beneath CWD are unclear. Here, initial changes in microbial and soil properties were studied using homogenous CWD samples in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f9090509
Abstract: Coarse woody debris (CWD) plays an important role in supporting biodiversity and assisting ecological processes. Sometimes local people intervene modifying the expected distribution of CWD components, harvested as fuel wood. The effect of the human… read more here.

DOI: 10.3959/1536-1098-74.2.135
Abstract: Abstract Coarse woody debris (CWD; i.e. downed limbs and boles) serves numerous ecosystem functions, which vary according to the degree of decay. CWD decay is often described using five categories based on readily observed physical… read more here.
