Coarse Woody Debris in Primary and Secondary Middle Taiga Spruce Forests [PDF]
Лесной журналRestoration of the pool of coarse woody debris after disturbances is one of the mechanisms for maintaining the stability of forest biogeocenoses. The studies of coarse woody debris have been carried out in the “Vepssky Forest” Reserve in the Leningrad ...

Modelling the disappearance of coarse woody debris, following a land clearing event [PDF]
Carbon Balance and Management, 2021 Background Land clearing generates coarse woody debris (CWD), much of which ultimately becomes atmospheric CO2. Schemes for greenhouse gas accounting must consider the contribution from land clearing, but the timing of the contribution will have large ...

The combustion of sound and rotten coarse woody debris: a review
International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2011 Coarse woody debris serves many functions in forest ecosystem processes and has important implications for fire management as it affects air quality, soil heating and carbon budgets when it combusts.

Decay and nutrient dynamics of coarse woody debris in the Qinling Mountains, China.
PLoS ONE, 2017 As an ecological unit, coarse woody debris (CWD) plays an essential role in productivity, nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration, community regeneration and biodiversity. However, thus far, the information on quantification the decomposition and nutrient

Coarse Woody Debris Legacies and Their Dynamics in Retained Forest Patches [PDF]
Forest Ecology and Management, 2023 Retaining trees in small patches at final harvest is a common forest conservation measure to maintain structural and biological diversity through the young forest phase. Long-term studies of coarse woody debris (CWD, breast height diameter ≥ 10 cm) changes in retention patches remain uncommon, especially in relation to different types of patches with ...

Coarse Woody Debris in Oak Woodlands of California [PDF]
Western Journal of Applied Forestry, 2002 Abstract An extensive forest inventory was conducted to estimate the amount and distribution of coarse woody debris (CWD) on 5.6 million ac of woodlands in California that are outside of national forests and reserved areas. Woodlands consist primarily of oak (Quercus spp.) types and are defined as forestland incapable of producing ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
