DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70710
Abstract: ABSTRACT Retention forestry involves leaving single or groups of unharvested trees within harvest areas. Patch retention, which resembles structures such as unburned patches remaining after wildfire, is one practice implemented within the framework of Ecosystem‐based… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10342-019-01164-8
Abstract: In most European temperate forests, the heavy harvesting of low-quality wood for energy, a low minimum harvest diameter and a short rotation period, result in the limited deadwood resources. However, areas are being set aside… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2018.09.018
Abstract: Abstract Native saproxylic (deadwood dependent) beetle species living in exotic forest plantations may provide environmental services for forestry companies, but their sensitivity to forest management makes them difficult to conserve. Here, we used Structural Equation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.06.013
Abstract: Abstract The increasing demand for wood products increases the anthropogenic pressure on biodiversity in forests. Thereby integrative nature conservation strategies, allowing for both, wood production and biodiversity conservation, increase in importance. While many of such… read more here.
