Small-scale spontaneous dynamics in temperate beech stands as an importance driver for beetle species richness [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Natural dynamics in forests play an important role in the lives of many species. In the landscape of managed forests, natural disturbances are reduced by management activities. This usually has a significant effect on insect diversity.

People's attitudes towards deadwood in forest: evidence from the Ukrainian Carpathians
Journal of Forest Science, 2019 People's attitudes towards forest stand characteristics including deadwood are becoming increasingly relevant in sustainable forest management. The aim of this study is to investigate people's attitudes towards deadwood in forest.

Full-scale experiments to examine the role of deadwood in rockfall dynamics in forests [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Forests are rockfall-protective ecological infrastructures as a significant amount of kinetic energy is absorbed during consecutive rock–tree impacts.

Assessing and Harmonizing Lying Deadwood Volume with Regional Forest Inventory Data in Wallonia (Southern Region of Belgium) [PDF]
The Open Forest Science Journal, 2012 Using lying deadwood or coarse woody debris (CWD) as an indicator of biodiversity and of sustainable forest management is on the rise among national and local forest inventories. Nevertheless choosing the most suitable sampling method is difficult as it depends mostly on CWD abundance and dimensions.

A simple concept for estimating deadwood carbon in forests
Carbon Management, 2023 Deadwood in forests is becoming an important topic globally for forest management and carbon markets. While deadwood volume is now routinely assessed by forest inventories and can be even monitored using remote sensing, data about deadwood carbon and ...

Wildlife Biology, 2023 Biodiversity loss due to intensive timber production is a ubiquitous conservation issue across temperate and boreal forest ecosystems. Retention forestry, the retention of deadwood and old‐growth features within production forest, is one management strategy that has been implemented in various countries around the world to conserve a wide range of taxa

Ecological Indicators, 2023 Deadwood is one of the main terrestrial carbon (C) pools and its decomposition is fundamental in biogeochemical cycles. As fungi are the main wood degraders, a study was carried out on deadwood-colonising fungal community changes as a function of host ...

Vital rates and their multidecadal trends in the fir-beech old-growth forest of Badínsky prales
Journal of Forest Science, 2023 The study aimed to quantify annual mortality and recruitment rates on permanent research plots in the Badínsky prales old-growth forest. The data measured in four stands originate from six censuses, which together cover a 48-year period.

Validation and limitations of large-scale forest condition indicators – An example from Hungary
Ecological Indicators, 2023 As the multi-scale study of biodiversity is extremely resource-intensive, proxy indicators taken from various databases are often used to answer questions on a larger spatial scale.

Tree biomass and deadwood density into ageing Turkey oak coppices in Tuscany
Forest@, 2010 Recent data from the National Forest Inventory point out the further reinforcement of coppice area under the position of “mature” standing crop or post-cultivation phase, both of them being spread throughout the original cultivation area ...
