Carbon fractions in the world’s dead wood [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 Tree mortality is increasing with climate change, which suggests that the biomass of dead wood is likely becoming more and more important to the global carbon cycle.

Microbial metaproteome data from decayed beech dead wood [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2020 Wood-decomposition in terrestrial ecosystems is a very important process with huge ecologic consequences. This decomposition process is a combination of biological respiration, leaching and fragmentation, mainly triggered by organismic activities.

Ecology of species living on dead wood – lessons for dead wood management
Silva Fennica, 2005 Dead wood has been identified as a crucial component for forest biodiversity. Recent research has improved our understanding of habitat relations for many species associated with dead wood. However, the consequences for forest management are yet to be

Targets for maintenance of dead wood for biodiversity conservation based on extinction thresholds [PDF]
, 2006 Forestry decreases the amount of dead wood, thereby threatening the persistence of many saproxylic (wood-living) organisms. In this article, we discuss how targets for efforts to maintain and restore dead wood in managed forest landscapes should be ...

Diversity, 2023 Dead wood is an important microhabitat for Uropodina mites (Acari: Mesostigmata). Earlier research has shown that dead wood contains about 1/3 of the Uropodina found so far in Poland, and its presence increases the overall biodiversity of forest ...

Dead wood fungi in North America: an insight into research and conservation potential [PDF]
Nature Conservation, 2019 Saproxylic fungi act as keystone species in forest ecosystems because they colonise and decompose dead wood, facilitating colonisation by later species.

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Although urban landscapes are regarded as unsuitable for dead wood dependent organisms, some species, including woodpeckers, commonly occur in cities. As the availability of trees and dead wood resources is a primary dimension of the habitat-niche for ...
