The missing woodland story: Implications of 1700 years of stand‐scale change on ‘naturalness’ and managing remnant broadleaved woodlands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

Colonisation potential of the bark beetle (Taphrorychus bicolor) on beech logs and logging residues: ecological context and implications for pest management in forests

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Beech residues left in shaded or semi‐shaded conditions pose a substantial risk of local Taphrorychus bicolor population outbreaks. The rapid removal or placement of residues in sun‐exposed locations can help mitigate this risk. Abstract BACKGROUND The bark beetle Taphrorychus bicolor has been traditionally classified as a secondary pest of European ...

The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

Composition, distribution and supposed origin of mineral inclusions in sessile oak wood - consequences for microdensitometrical analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
SEM and light-microscopical observations, supported by chemical microanalysis with an EDXA system, revealed that light-saturated pixels observed in X-ray negatives of sessile oak (Quercus petraea Liebl.) wood were caused by inorganic deposits present ...
