Abstract: Abstract An underappreciated component of precommerical crop tree release (PCTR) is the inevitable partial release of non-crop trees. While the response of fully released crop trees is increasingly understood, few studies have examined the response… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f11030337
Abstract: Silvicultural practices such as pre-commercial thinning (PCT) and repeated fertilization have been used successfully around the world to increase forest biomass for conventional wood products, biofuels, and carbon sequestration. Two complementary studies were designed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f12060705
Abstract: Understory vegetation plays a crucial role in nutrient turnover and cycling in plantations, but it also competes for nutrients with crop trees when only a single species is present due to its specific nutrient requirements.… read more here.
