Patterns and drivers of deadwood volume and composition in different forest types of the Austrian natural forest reserves

Forest Ecology and Management, 2020
Deadwood is an important structural feature in forests providing essential resources for various organisms. Both forest management and conservation are increasingly focusing on the integration of deadwood into forest management.

Microbial communities associated with decomposing deadwood of downy birch in a natural forest in Khibiny Mountains (Kola Peninsula, Russian Federation)

Forest Ecology and Management, 2020
Deadwood plays an important role in the forest ecosystems, providing nutrients and habitat for a wide range of organisms, preventing soil erosion, and improving carbon storage. Microorganisms are primary agents in wood decomposition.

Deadwood-Dwelling Beetles (Coleoptera: Eucnemidae) in a Beech Reserve: A Case Study from the Czech Republic

Forests
The saproxylic beetles (deadwood-dependent) belong to frequently studied groups of forest insects. Eucnemidae is a rare and poorly studied saproxylic family with a hidden life strictly related to deadwood.

The role of forest deadwood in rockfall protection

, 2021
Forests with a high density and basal area of living trees are known for their function as natural and cost-efficient protection against rockfall. The role of deadwood, however, is less understood. We address this knowledge gap in this contribution as we

Forest management, canopy cover and geographical distance affect saproxylic beetle communities of small-diameter beech deadwood

, 2020
Beetles (Coleoptera) are the most diverse and species-rich insect order in saproxylic communities, and play a key role in forest dynamics. To prioritize conservation measures, a clear understanding is needed of what habitat features are the most ...
