Effect of Land Use History on Biodiversity of Pine Plantations
The growing replacement of native vegetation by forest plantations is considered a global threat to biodiversity. Significant variation in biotic communities among stands with similar management suggests that previous land use might have an effect on the

Disruptant Effects of 4-Allylanisole and Verbenone on \u3ci\u3eTomicus Piniperda\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) Response to Baited Traps and Logs [PDF]
We assessed the inhibitory effects of the host compound 4-allylanisole (release rates = 1 and 2 mg/d in 1994, and 1 and 10 mg/d in 2001) on the response of the pine shoot beetle, Tomicus piniperda (L.), adults to funnel traps baited with the attractant ...

Invasive plant species in the forest parks of Yekaterinburg [PDF]
Invasive species-introduced species, spontaneously settled outside their natural range, and successfully adapted to the new growing conditions. The problem of invasive species penetration, both herbaceous and woody, has long been a concern of scientists,

Current Landscape: Use of Supercritical CO2 in the Wood Industry
The application of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) to successfully dewater as well as extract resin from wood is becoming increasingly popular due to its greener and less energy‐intensive approach. With world focus shifting to developing methods with greater efficiency while decreasing harm to the environment, scCO2 applications have begun to set ...
