How do forest structure and composition near trees with black woodpecker (Dryocopus martius L.) cavities differ from the surrounding forest? A multisite approach in French forests

Annals of Forest Science
Key message In French temperate lowland and mountain forests, the black woodpecker (Dryocopus martius L.) excavates preferably trees in beech-dominated sites, with a lower fraction of small-diameter trees than in the surrounding areas, while the presence

Habitat properties are key drivers of Borrelia burgdorferi (s.l.) prevalence in Ixodes ricinus populations of deciduous forest fragments [PDF]

, 2018
Background: The tick Ixodes ricinus has considerable impact on the health of humans and other terrestrial animals because it transmits several tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) such as B. burgdorferi (sensu lato), which causes Lyme borreliosis (LB).

Old-growth mixed beech-dominated forests continue accumulating carbon with advancing age

Forest Ecosystems
Old-growth forests uniquely support biodiversity while serving as some of the planet's most important carbon stocks. The influence of tree and stand age on carbon flux dynamics remains debated—an urgent question as climate-driven disturbances may reshape

Impacts of salvage-logging on the status of deadwood after windthrow in Swiss forests [PDF]

, 2018
Downed and standing deadwood (DW) is a key resource for maintaining forest biodiversity. Although extreme events such as windthrow and fires produce large quantities of DW, this substrate is often drastically reduced by logging activities.

Reappearance of old growth elements in lowland woodlands in northern Belgium : do the associated species follow? [PDF]

, 2012
The forest cover of the western European lowland plain has been very low for centuries. Remaining forests were intensively managed, and old-growth elements like veteran trees and coarse woody debris became virtually absent.
