New standards for forest inventory and commodification of forest-cutting fund in the Republic of Belarus [PDF]
Since 2013, new assortment tables have been adopted in the Republic of Belarus, and since 2015 new growth tables for pine, spruce, birch and aspen. Growth tables were compiled based on 1353 trial plots, where 2546 model trees were taken.

Aspen Soils Retain More Dissolved Organic Carbon Than Conifer Soils in a Sorption Experiment
The effect tree species have on soil organic carbon (SOC) has been hotly debated but, so far, few clear patterns have emerged. One example of a differing tree species effect on SOC are aspen forests in North America, which have been found to have more ...

Controls of Initial Wood Decomposition on and in Forest Soils Using Standard Material
Forest ecosystems sequester approximately half of the world’s organic carbon (C), most of it in the soil. The amount of soil C stored depends on the input and decomposition rate of soil organic matter (OM), which is controlled by the abundance and ...

Metabolite signature during short-day induced growth cessation in Populus
The photoperiod is an important environmental signal for plants, and influences a wide range of physiological processes. For woody species in northern latitudes, cessation of growth is induced by short photoperiods.
