Forest roads act as habitat corridors for Populus tremuloides in the boreal forest of eastern Canada
Frontiers in Ecology and EvolutionEdge habitats resulting from the construction and maintenance of forest roads favour pioneer, shade-intolerant and disturbance-adapted plant species. The effect of roads on the spread of non-native species has been frequently studied, but few studies ...

Forest transport roads according to natural forest regions in the Czech Republic
Journal of Forest Science, 2008 Important parts of the forest sector are forest engineering constructions and capital construction of forest road network which improve the optimal management of forests and forest stands and their reasonable opening by a forest road network.

Influence of storage on properties of wood chip material
Journal of Forest Science, 2017 The use of bioenergy for district heating is usually seasonal with a high consumption during the cold periods. Therefore some type of the harvested material storage is necessary. Woody materials are usually reduced in size to chips and stored outdoors in

Assessment of the state of a forest road network as a basis for making a program of forest management unit opening [PDF]
Glasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2014 The planning of a forest road network is preceded by a detailed analysis of the current qualitative and quantitative state of forest roads, and above all, the determination of their spatial layout.

Reducing erosion from forest roads and skid trails by management practices
Journal of Forest Science, 2012 A road network in forest lands provides easy access to forest resources for extraction, regeneration, protection and recreation activities. Erosion from forest roads and skid trails is a major concern in forest management due to the capability to cause ...
