Sampling coarse woody debris along spoked transects [PDF]
Forestry, 2010 Summary Line transects are commonly used for sampling coarse woody debris (CWD). The USDA Forest Service Forest Inventory and Analysis programme uses a variant of this method that involves sampling for CWD along transects that radiate from the centre of a circular plot-like spokes on a wheel.

Coarse Woody Debris in Primary and Secondary Middle Taiga Spruce Forests
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 ...

Dynamic Responses of Ground-Dwelling Invertebrate Communities to Disturbance in Forest Ecosystems
Insects, 2019 In forest ecosystems, natural and anthropogenic disturbances alter canopy structure, understory vegetation, amount of woody debris, and the properties of litter and soil layers.

Combining paleoecology and modeling to explore cascading disturbances in forest ecosystems
Ecography, EarlyView.Climate‐induced cascading disturbance interactions pose a major challenge to the sustainable provision of forest ecosystem services to society. Developing a deeper understanding and enhanced capacity to simulate these interactions is essential for identifying disturbance‐induced tipping points in forest ecosystems, and for improving management in ...

Structure of coarse woody debris in Lange-Leitn Natural Forest Reserve, Austria
Journal of Forest Science, 2008 The amount, variability and quality of coarse woody debris (CWD) in an oak-dominated natural forest reserve in Austria were studied in 2006. The average volume of CWD (snags and logs) was 107.3 m3/ha, which accounted for 39% of the total living volume ...
