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.

Moisture reduces saproxylic bee, wasp, and parasitoid diversity in lying and standing deadwood

bioRxiv
Abstract Saproxylic community assembly is structured both by deadwood and forest habitat gradients, as well as biotic interactions such as competition, predation, and parasitism.

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.

Deadwood position matters: Diversity and biomass of saproxylic beetles in a temperate beech forest

Forest Ecosystems
Deadwood plays a key role for biodiversity in forests. A significant number of beetles from this group are currently listed as endangered in the Red List.

Review of indicators and field methods for monitoring biodiversity within national forest inventories. Core variable: Deadwood

Environmental Monitoring & Assessment, 2010
peer reviewedDeadwood is one of the four elements taken into account in this review of indicators and field methods and is often considered as a key indicator of forest biodiversity.

How does deadwood structure temperate forest bat assemblages?

European Journal of Forest Research, 2016
[Departement_IRSTEA]Territoires [TR1_IRSTEA]SEDYVINInternational audienceThirty percent of forest species depend on deadwood. Some of them are now considered rare or at high risk of extinction mainly due to an insufficient quantity of deadwood substrates.

Preliminary study on the assessment of deadwood volume by the French national forest inventory

Annals of Forest Science, 2009
• As the French national forest inventory does not currently monitor the lying compartment of the forest deadwood, the figures obtained on this topic are therefore partial.

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.
