The effect of spruce plantation density on resilience of mixed forests in the Perm Krai [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Over the course of the last few decades, many countries across the globe have experienced mass desiccation of spruce plantations. The subject of our research was the spruce forests of the Russian Perm Krai's mixed forest zone.

Picein and piceol concentrations in Norway spruce

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1990
The concentrations of the glucoside picein and its aglucone piceol (4-hydroxy acetophenone) in the needles of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karsten) are considered indicators of plant stress. By use of two clones and a natural population of Norway spruce it was shown that the picein concentration was dependent on the site and the provenance of the ...

Can Wapiti (Cervus elaphus) Browsing Stimulate the Chemical Defense of Taxus cuspidata—A Case of Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We study that browsing by wapiti reduces the growth of saplings, and it develop chemical defenses to prevent themselves browsed again. These results reduce our concern about wapiti browse T. cuspidate saplings, and provide basic data for the study of the interaction between them, and also provide theoretical basis for the population restoration and ...

Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Estimation of leaf area index and its sunlit portion from DSCOVR EPIC data: theoretical basis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents the theoretical basis of the algorithm designed for the generation of leaf area index and diurnal course of its sunlit portion from NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) onboard NOAA's Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR)

Automated Crossdating With a Modified Version of the Dendrochronology Program CROS

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The basic principle of dendrochronology involves matching patterns of tree‐ring widths, with the objective of dating wood of unknown age. The various crossdating procedures rely on statistical methods. The legacy CROS program written in FORTRAN IV contains algorithms, variants of which have been incorporated into modern crossdating programs ...

Spatio-temporal modelling of forest monitoring data: Modelling German tree defoliation data collected between 1989 and 2015 for trend estimation and survey grid examination using GAMMs

open access: yes, 2018
Spatio-temporal modelling of tree defoliation data of German forest condition survey is presented. In the present study generalized additive mixed models were used to estimate the spatio-temporal trends of defoliation of the main tree species from 1989 ...

A comparison of avian diversity in spruce monocultures and spruce-birch polycultures in southern Sweden

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 2011
The replacement of some spruce monocultures with stands composed of planted Norway spruce (Picea abies) and naturally regenerated birch (Betula spp.) has a range of potential benefits, but the implications for biodiversity are generally unknown.
