Climatic regions as an indicator of forest coarse and fine woody debris carbon stocks in the United States [PDF]
Carbon Balance and Management, 2008 Background Coarse and fine woody debris are substantial forest ecosystem carbon stocks; however, there is a lack of understanding how these detrital carbon stocks vary across forested landscapes.

How to Evaluate Downed Fine Woody Debris Including Logging Residues? [PDF]
Forests, 2021 Volume or biomass estimates of downed woody debris are crucial for numerous applications such as forest carbon stock assessment, biodiversity assessments, and more recently for environmental evaluations of biofuel harvesting practices. Both fixed-area sampling (FAS) and line-intersect sampling (LIS) are used in forest inventories and ecological studies

Soil warming accelerates decomposition of fine woody debris [PDF]
Plant and Soil, 2012 Background and aims Soil warming from global climate change could increase decomposition of fine woody debris (FWD), but debris size and quality may mitigate this effect. The goal of this study was to investigate theeffectofsoilwarming on decompositionoffine woody debris of differing size and quality. Methods We placedFWD of two sizeclasses (2×20cm and

Decomposition of Scots pine fine woody debris in boreal conditions: Implications for estimating carbon pools and fluxes [PDF]
Forest Ecology and Management, 2009 Abstract Litter quality and environmental effects on Scots pine ( Pinus sylvestris L.) fine woody debris (FWD) decomposition were examined in three forestry-drained peatlands representing different site types along a climatic gradient from the north boreal (Northern Finland) to south (Southern Finland) and hemiboreal (Central Estonia) conditions ...

Evaluation of techniques for determining the density of fine woody debris
, 2010 Evaluated various techniques for determining the density (i.e., bulk density) of fine woody debris during forest inventory activities. It was found that only experts in dead wood inventory may be able to identify fine woody debris stages of decay. Suggests various future research directions such as development of a 2-class fine woody debris decay class
