DOI: 10.1002/esp.5137
Abstract: The watersheds along the north coast of California span a wide range of geologic settings, tectonic uplift rates, and historic timber harvest activity. Known trends in how each of these factors influence erosion rates provides… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-017-3808-5
Abstract: Understory light environments change rapidly following timber harvest, and while many understory species utilize and benefit from the additional light, this response is not ubiquitous in shade-obligate species. I examined the effects of patch cut… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2017.06.025
Abstract: Global demand for timber products is increasing. Despite high interest in the environmental impacts of forestry and efforts to improve management practices, little synthesis of these impacts exist. This systematic review unifies the literature on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2019.03.060
Abstract: Abstract Over the last decades, timber harvest has greatly reduced the quality of habitat for several species. To mitigate this problem, government authorities often try to support silvicultural practices that help forests recover faster to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.forpol.2017.06.001
Abstract: Abstract Forest policy-making can be dramatically enhanced by implementing computer based decision support systems (DSS) during the development phase. While stakeholders usually agree on general policy objectives, the best course of action for achieving them… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyz094
Abstract: Many small mammal populations respond quickly to timber harvest aimed at oak (Quercus) regeneration, which alters microhabitat. We used mark-release–recapture data collected 6–8 years postharvest from the Hardwood Ecosystem Experiment in southern Indiana, United States,… read more here.
