Coarse and fine woody debris and mortality rate of Persian Oak estimation in relation to some environmental factors in Zagros Oak forest (Case study: Tange Alamdar, Behbahan) [PDF]
مجله جنگل ایران, 2020 Forest decline is an important and complicated phenomenon that happened in most world oak forests. This research aims at the determination of mortality rate, the volume of deadwood, and also the designation of the ecological factor affecting these ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Deadwood is an important structural and functional component of forest ecosystems and biodiversity. As deadwood can make up large portions of the total aboveground biomass, it plays an important role in the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle.

Climatic predictors influences VFWD macromycetes diversity through dominant tree' ecology in beech forests in the North-Eastern Romania [PDF]
Journal of Plant Development, 2018 Lignicolous macromycetes plays are a vital part of forest ecosystems in Europe. They are involved in Carbon cycle, through decay processes of woody debris.

Logging Residue Assessment in Salvage Logging Areas: a Case Study in the North-Eastern Italian Alps
South-East European Forestry, 2023 Salvage logging operations often occur after large disturbances and usually leave behind a substantial quantity of residues, which is fundamental for maintaining soil fertility and facilitating ecosystem dynamics.

The volume and composition of dead wood on traditional and forest fuel harvested clear-cuts
Silva Fennica, 2010 Logging residue and cut stumps are increasingly used as a renewable energy source known as forest fuel. Forest fuel harvesting obviously reduces the volume of dead wood and is likely to alter the dead wood composition, but the magnitude of the change ...

Cultural treatments and woody debris: the study case of beech forests in Casentino (Italy)
Forest@, 2009 This paper shows the first results about quantity and quality of dead wood on the ground in beech forests of Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona and Campigna National Park. The presence of dead wood depends on several factors such as forest productivity,

Decay dynamic of coarse and fine woody debris of a beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forest in Central Germany [PDF]
European Journal of Forest Research, 2009 Decay rates of woody debris were estimated and used to model the decay of various diameters of branches and stems in a beech stand in Central Germany. In addition, use of wood density, volume and mass loss to quantitatively describe the degree of decay was tested. The mass loss during decay could be described by a simple exponential function. Under the

Dead wood profile of a semi-natural boreal forest – implications for sampling
Silva Fennica, 2019 Dead wood profile of a forest is a useful tool for describing forest characteristics and assessing forest disturbance history. Nevertheless, there are few studies on dead wood profiles, including both coarse and fine dead wood, and on the effect of ...
