Post-harvesting dynamics of the deadwood profile: the case of lowland beech-oak coppice-with-standards set-aside stands in France
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "European Journal of Forest Research"
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.catena.2019.03.025
Abstract: Abstract The aim of this study is to compare the C/N/P stoichiometry of deadwood among four tree species at different stages of decomposition. The way in which the relative concentrations of these elements in the… 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.

How much, why and where? Deadwood in forest ecosystems: The case of Poland
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecological Indicators"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2020.107027
Abstract: Abstract In forest management policy, deadwood is regarded as an indicator of sustainable forest management. Dead trees are a key habitat feature for a wide range of organisms. In this study, data from a regular… read more here.

Success of a deadwood enrichment strategy in production forests depends on stand type and management intensity
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Forest Ecology and Management"
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.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2017.08.036
Abstract: Abstract Deadwood provides key habitats for a variety of forest species. Thereby, not only deadwood quantity, but also its quality (dimensions and decay stages) as well as its spatial distribution is of importance for the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118064
Abstract: Abstract Hierarchical models are used to study the relationship between a response variable and a predictor in structured data. Random effects are meant to capture the structured part of variability among groups of observations. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118512
Abstract: Abstract The richness of saproxylic species is commonly found to be compromised in managed forests. However, it is often less clear if this reflects local scarcity of high quality deadwood objects or changes to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10549811.2020.1767144
Abstract: ABSTRACT Deadwood is an important component for conserving carbon stock (C-stock) and maintaining species diversity in forests. In the last years, some studies emphasized that the estimation of deadwood C-stock is a crucial aspect to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.15488
Abstract: Tree mortality rates are increasing within tropical rainforests as a result of global environmental change. When trees die, gaps are created in forest canopies and carbon is transferred from the living to deadwood pools. However,… read more here.
