Integrated Forest Vegetation Management: Stages and Development Prospects
Forestry Engineering Journal, 2023 When enterprises of the timber industry complex form protective forest plantations along linear infrastructure facilities, the problem of subsequent spontaneous reproduction of tree and shrub vegetation arises, which leads to disorder in the territories of the above facilities and creates a threat to the safety of their operation.

Geology and vegetation control landsliding on forest-managed slopes in scarplands
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2022 Abstract. Landslides are important agents of sediment transport, cause hazards and are key agents for the evolution of scarplands. To analyse geologic and vegetation control on landsliding, we investigated three landslides in the Franconian scarplands. We used geomorphic mapping, soil analysis, electrical resistivity and a mechanical stability model to

Which traits are necessary to quickly select suitable plant species for ecological restoration?
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2021 Traditionally, restoration ecologists and land managers have used the trial‐and‐error method to select candidate restoration species. This method, however, is time consuming (usually more than 3 years) and has a relatively low success rate.
