Masting of European Beech in Seed Stands from Eastern Carpathians
South-East European ForestryMasting is the process of producing seed crops, which presents annual variation and synchronicity among individuals. Among the major species in Europe, beech is the most common deciduous species, a foundational species in the majority of forest ...

Forest Disturbance Types and Current Analogs for Historical Disturbance-Independent Forests
Land, 2021 Forest classifications by disturbance permit designation of multiple types of both old growth forests and shorter-lived forests, which auto-replace under severe disturbance, and also identification of loss of the disturbance type and associated forest ...
