The evaluation of soil detachment capacity induced by vegetal species based on the comparison between natural and planted forests

open access: yes, 2021
Planted forests and management operation method can potentially alter the soil properties as a consequence of changes in the characteristics of tree and plant species. However, the effects of planted forest species with different root systems on the soil

Similarity among eucalyptus planted areas based on leaf-cutting ant nest sizes

open access: yesPesquisa Florestal Brasileira, 2021
Techniques for leaf-cutting ant control have been investigated in literature due to the importance of the damage they cause to agriculture. Plantations with large territorial extensions, which can be contiguous or not, are usually subdivided into local ...

Spatial pattern and driving factors of biomass carbon density for natural and planted coniferous forests in mountainous terrain, eastern Loess Plateau of China

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2020
Background Understanding the spatial pattern and driving factors of forest carbon density in mountainous terrain is of great importance for monitoring forest carbon in support of sustainable forest management for mitigating climate change.

Tree diversity and timber productivity in planted forests: Pinus patula versus mixed cloud forest species

open access: yes, 2020
Planted forests contribute to maximizing timber production but their role as valuable habitat for diversity is of increasing concern, particularly in tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF) landscapes, which present extremely high diversity and endemism. We

Concerns and evidence on genetic diversity in planted forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Planted forests are an important source of various services (economic, environmental, and social) with increasing portion in the total world’s forest area. Genetic diversity is fundamental for success and sustainability of planted forests.

Woody species diversity in forest plantations in a mountainous region of Beijing, China: effects of sampling scale and species selection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The role of forest plantations in biodiversity conservation has gained more attention in recent years. However, most work on evaluating the diversity of forest plantations focuses only on one spatial scale; thus, we examined the effects of sampling scale

Mitigation strategies for conserving bird diversity under climate change scenarios in Europe: The role of forest naturalization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
There are many possible strategies to promote naturalization in anthropogenic landscapes to mitigate global change effects. We combined large-scale databases available for continental Spain on: (1) distribution of breeding birds, (2) forest inventory ...

Young mixed planted forests store more carbon than monocultures—a meta-analysis

open access: yes, 2023
Although decades of research suggest that higher species richness improves ecosystem functioning and stability, planted forests are predominantly monocultures.

Climate factors dominate the spatial variation of forest soil nutrients: a meta analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change
The management mode of forests has significant impacts on soil nutrients. However, with global changes, there is scant evidence to suggest whether the soil nutrients in planted and natural forests have a consistent response mechanism to environmental ...
