Xylem Phenology of Fagus sylvatica in Rarău Mountains (Eastern Carpathians, Romania)

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2014
The cambium activity and the tree ring formation of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) from the Rarău Mountains was monitored during 2009, 2010 and 2011 in a beech - coniferous stand, representative for Eastern Carpathian mixed forests.

Late-successional and old-growth forests in the northeastern United States: Structure, dynamics, and prospects for restoration. [PDF]

, 2013
Restoration of old-growth forest structure is an emerging silvicultural goal, especially in those regions where old-growth abundance falls below the historic range of variability.

Monitoring the effects of ovariectomy on seasonal movement behavior in suburban female white‐tailed deer using internet of things‐enabled devices

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

ASSEMBLAGES OF WOOD-INHABITING MACROFUNGI SPECIES IN BEECH FORESTS FROM EASTERN ROMANIA

Journal of Plant Development
Species composition and diversity of lignicolous fungi occurring in representative Fagus sp. forests have been analyzed along an altitude gradient, in 14 locations from the eastern region of Romania, including mountain forests (Borca, Gosman, Nemtisor, Tarcau), as well as hill forests (Arsura, Bârnova, Dalhauti, Dragomirna, Gâdinti, Homita, Humosu ...

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
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

Beech bark necrotic disease (Fagus sylvatica L.) of tracheomycotic type in Central and South-eastern Europe [PDF]

Journal of Forest Science, 2015
The authors present results of long term monitoring of beech stems bark necrotic disease of maternal stand in Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Bulgaria. Overall, 10,863 beech trees were evaluated at 121 localities. The most trees (6679) were evaluated at 55 localities in Slovakia and 2684 trees at 50 localities in Bulgaria.

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
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.

Beech coppice conversion to high forest: results from a 31-year experiment in Eastern Pre-Alps [PDF]

Annals of Forest Science, 2017
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 ...

Regional conservation planning tool: A spreadsheet model to support spatial prioritization and resource allocation decisions

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract Prioritization is a central component of natural resource management because conservation needs routinely exceed available resources. Waterfowl and wetland conservation programs in North America are at the forefront of landscape‐scale prioritization and transboundary management decisions due to the migratory nature of ducks, geese, and swans ...

Fagus grandifolia growth and mortality a decade after the emergence of Beech leaf disease

Trees, Forests and People
Beech leaf disease (BLD) is poised to cause major declines in American beech (Fagus grandifolia) across the eastern United States and parts of Canada. Given the dominance of this tree, quantifying impacts of this emerging disease is critical.
