Planning Forest Opening with Forest Roads

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2013
The article presents the model for determining inaccessible forest areas by density of forest roads. The model is based on the GIS analysis of the distances between the existing network of public and forest roads and inaccessible forest areas, sizes of ...

The Road to Resistance in Forest Trees [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
In recent years, forests have been exposed to an unprecedented rise in pests and pathogens. This, coupled with the added challenge of climate change, renders forest plantation stock vulnerable to attack and severely limits productivity. Genotypes resistant to such biotic challenges are desired in plantation forestry to reduce losses.

Improving drainage conditions of forest roads using the GIS and forest road simulator [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2020
In this study a new method of locating culverts is presented with the composition of achieved discharge from hydrological analysis and simulated forest roads in RoadEng 3D simulator to improve drainage condition. Locating culverts was performed on a small scale (1:20 000, using GIS) and large scale (1:2 000, road geometric design simulator).

Wood in the Construction of Forest Roads on Poor-bearing Road Subgrades [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2020
The use of wood for road construction in biologically valuable areas seems to be a good alternative to solutions based on less ecologically-friendly materials. The key issue is the durability of the wood in specific conditions of use, i.e., in the substrate of the actual road.

Pavement Engineering for Forest Roads: Development and Opportunities [PDF]

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Forest Engineering : Journal for Theory and Application of Forestry Engineering, 2020
Pavement is an essential component of roads as it carries the traffic and provides the required riding comfort. Considering that numerous forest roads are approaching their end of life, the critical issue is identifying the best rational pavement design methods to reengineer existing and build new pavement structures.
