Estimating Net Primary Productivity (NPP) and Debris-Fall in Forests Using Lidar Time Series
Temporal series of lidar, properly field-validated, can provide critical information allowing in-ferences about the dynamics of biomass and carbon in forest canopies.

The role of coarse woody debris in forest aquatic habitats: Implications for management
1 Throughout the Temperate Forest biogeographical zone, river valleys were once heavily wooded. Fallen trees had a major impact upon river systems by ponding water and storing sediments, and valley floors were characterized by extensive wetlands with ...

Coarse woody debris: Managing benefits and fire hazard in the recovering forest [PDF]
Management of coarse woody debris following fire requires consideration of its positive and negative values. The ecological benefits of coarse woody debris and fire hazard considerations are summarized.

Dead organic matter is important in carbon (C) sequestration because it accounts for a significant proportion of forest C storage. As thinning could alter the C storage of dead organic matter, this study aimed to assess the effect of thinning on the C ...

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

Ringtail (Bassariscus astutus) survival in southwestern Oregon
We captured and monitored radio‐collared ringtails over 2 years to estimate monthly and annual survival rates. We found that annual survival rates were much higher within forested landscapes in Oregon than for populations in the southwestern United States.

Nonlinear interactive effects of temperature and soil moisture on plant biomass and carbon fluxes
Climate warming is affecting plant growth and CO2 fluxes in high‐latitude ecosystems. However, soil moisture – and how it responds to warming – can alter the shape of the relationship between temperature and both plant performance and ecosystem processes. We conducted a microcosm experiment to test the interactive effects of temperature, soil moisture,

Occurrence patterns of dead wood and wood-dependent lichens in managed boreal forest landscapes [PDF]
Dead wood is a key resource for biodiversity, on which thousands of forest organisms are dependent. Because of current forest management, there has been a large-scale change in dead wood amounts and qualities, and consequently, many wood-dependent ...
