Beech coppice conversion to high forest: results from a 31-year experiment in Eastern Pre-Alps [PDF]
AbstractKeymessageSelective thinning is a more viable method for beech coppice conversion to high forest when compared with thinning from below as it enhances tree growth, reduces mortality of the remaining trees, and allows to obtain stands with a higher mechanical stability and larger crowns.ContextBeech forests in North-East Italy have been largely ...

Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.

Automated quantification of fine root production from minirhizotron image time series
Abstract Plant root growth accounts for a major part of the net primary production in grassland and forest ecosystems and influences the global carbon and nutrient cycles. Measuring the production of roots is inherently difficult, prone to inconsistencies and time‐consuming. Notably, there are currently no methods yet to automate this task.

A comparison of three canopy interception models for a leafless mixed deciduous forest stand in the eastern United States [PDF]
Canopy interception of incident precipitation is a critical component of the forest water balance during each of the four seasons. Models have been developed to predict precipitation interception from standard meteorological variables because of ...
