Towards reduced herbicide use in forest vegetation management
The Southern African Forestry Journal, 2006Mechanical, manual, thermal, biological and chemical methods of managing forest vegetation have, to a large extent, been developed independently. The effectiveness and relatively low cost of chemical herbicides, however, have led to systems of vegetation management that rely on their continued availability and the near exclusion of non-herbicide ...

Modeling dynamics of forest ground vegetation diversity under different forest management regimes
Forest Ecology and Management, 2007Abstract Forest ground vegetation constitutes the largest number of plant species that participate in forest dynamics. Single species or species groups of forest ground vegetation can be used as indicators for site conditions. Ground vegetation has to be accounted in forest simulation modeling if biodiversity dynamics are evaluated to serve the ...

Taking charge in forest vegetation management
Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2006Management of forest vegetation is the determinant of goal achievement in forestry enterprises. Cultural patterns with a limited long-term outlook have led to large-scale deforestation in many parts of the world, but have left many examples of what is possible with forest management in many of those places, as well as in developed countries.

The impact of forest management on forest floor vegetation evaluated by species traits
Community Ecology, 2003This study investigated if ecological traits of forest floor vegetation could be used as indicators of naturalness of beech forest in Hungary, by comparing near-natural unmanaged stands with managed ones. Seventeen patches in the unmanaged Kekes Forest Reserve were compared with 11 subcompartments of different ages in the surrounding managed forest. In

Reductions in Herbicide use for Forest Vegetation Management
Weed Technology, 1994There is distinct regional variation in forestry uses of herbicides. Different land ownership patterns affect policies and practices, and crop tree species characteristics differ within and among regions. Recent decreases in land areas treated have been attributed to budget reductions, changes in operating conditions, and pressures from the general ...

Applied Vegetation Science, 2019
AbstractBackground and questionsHow forest vegetation responds to disturbance continues to be a focal point, especially in the context of biodiversity conservation. To investigate the short‐term effects of forest management on understory vegetation, we asked: (a) Are there any plant indicator species associated with different felling intensities?

Research directions to advance forest vegetation management in North America
Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 1993Research in forest vegetation management has followed the agricultural paradigm. Shifting public attitudes about forestry practices, however, are forcing forest managers to seek alternative approaches to managing forest vegetation. Applied research is needed to (i) search for alternatives to current uses of forest herbicides, (ii) more fully document ...

Synthesis: social and economic considerations in forest vegetation management
2004Il y a de nombreuses conséquences environnementales et économiques de la gestion de la végétation forestière. Elles sont liées non seulement aux productions et aux revenus mais aussi aux valeurs en termes de biodiversité, paysage, culture, la plupart ayant des dimensions économiques ne pouvant pas être mises en équation par les méthodes ...
