Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 382-397, August 2026.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Forest management optimization across spatial scales to reconcile economic and conservation objectives.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Conflicts between biodiversity conservation and resource production can be mitigated by multi-objective management planning. Optimizing management for multiple objectives over larger land areas likely entails trading off the practicability of the process

Defining ecologically realistic biodiversity offset multipliers with the response‐based habitat hectare assessment of biodiversity gains (REHAB)

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Biodiversity offsetting should be based on adequately large multipliers to deliver no net loss or a net gain for biodiversity, yet the multipliers are often applied without quantitative assessment of the ecological outcomes of offset actions. Here, we show how ecologically realistic offset multipliers were defined based on ecological response estimates

Deadwood and saproxylic beetle diversity in naturally disturbed and managed spruce forests in Nova Scotia

open access: yesZooKeys, 2009
Even-age industrial forestry practices may alter communities of native species. Thus, identifying coarse patterns of species diversity in industrial forests and understanding how and why these patterns differ from those in naturally disturbed forests can

Viral Transmission Between Heterobasidion parviporum Strains in Wood Billets and Decaying Stumps

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The combined use of Heterobasidion partitiviruses HetPV13‐an1 and HetPV15‐pa1 is considered a promising biocontrol approach against Heterobasidion root and butt rot. Both viruses mediate debilitating effects in many Heterobasidion isolates and are transmitted efficiently in laboratory conditions.

The tree‐parasitic fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola discovered on European chestnut and European hornbeam in Azerbaijan

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 2, Page 370-375, August 2026.
Abstract The ascomycetous fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola is typically found in its asexual form on the European hornbeam, and its sexual state has only recently been discovered in deadwood of different Carpinus species in Japan. Recently, this fungus has been added to the EPPO Alert List due to its increasing incidence in the EPPO region and a ...

Relationship between deadwood structural diversity and carbon stock along environmental and disturbance gradients in Tropical dry forests

open access: yesFolia Oecologica
Deadwood is a substantial component of forest ecosystems playing a vital role in maintaining ecosystem health and functioning. However, there is limited information on deadwood stand structure which encompasses attributes such as type, quantities and ...

Deadwood in Forest Ecosystems

open access: yes, 2012
Until recently, deadwood was perceived as a negative element of forest ecosystems, that indicates “mismanagement, negligence, and wastefulness” of the applied forest management (Stachura et al., 2007). It was regarded as a potential source of biotic pests, mainly insects (Butler, 2003; Marage & Lemperiere, 2005), to remaining trees in a forest as well ...

Effects of tree fall on soil Collembola: Disentangling the role of gap formation and deadwood addition

open access: yesGeoderma
Increased frequency of climate extremes causes large scale forest decline associated with gap formation and input of deadwood to the forest floor, which largely changes soil systems.

Drivers of wood‐inhabiting fungal diversity in European and Oriental beech forests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
The hyperdiverse wood‐inhabiting fungi play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle, but often are threatened by deadwood removal, particularly in temperate forests dominated by European beech (Fagus sylvatica) and Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis). To
