Response of Global Forest Management to Changes in Wood Demand. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
This study uses a global land use modelling framework (LandSyMM) to simulate global wood demand, harvests, and forest management intensity under a range of socioeconomic and climate scenarios. Findings indicate that global wood demand could increase between 27% and 102% by 2100. This rise in demand is expected to be met primarily through more intensive

Calculation of Myocardial Percentage Collagen, Mast Cell Count and Presence of Arteriosclerosis in Dogs With Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease and Control Dogs-A Pilot Study. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
This pilot study explored the feasibility of calculating myocardial percentage collagen (PMC), mast cell (MC) count and assessing arteriosclerosis in canine myocardial tissue. No significant difference in PMC, MC count or arteriosclerosis was detected between dogs with and without myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD).

Role of Forest Carbon Change in Shaping Future Land Use and Land Cover Change. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
ABSTRACT Global change, particularly the changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration, climatic variables, and nitrogen deposition, has been widely recognized and examined to have worldwide impacts on forest carbon. However, its influence on forest area required to meet the demand for timber and carbon storage and subsequent land use and land cover change (

Robustness of texture-based roundwood tracking

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Wood and Wood Products, 2022
AbstractThe proof of origin of wood logs is becoming more and more important. In the context of Industry 4.0 and to combat illegal logging, there is an increased interest to track each individual log. There were already previous publications on wood log tracing using image data from logs, but these publications used experimental setups that cannot ...

Reference Measurement of Roundwood by Fringe Projection [PDF]

open access: yesForest Products Journal, 2021
Abstract The metrological verification of log scanners requires logs with accurately known dimensions as test objects. The measurement of the lengths and diameters must be traceable back to the SI (International System of Units) unit of length. The results have to be reported with the corresponding measurement uncertainties.

Emergence levels of pine shoot beetles from roundwood piles of Scots pine and the cascading damage in the surrounding forests

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 2021
Bark beetles are amongst the most aggressive pest agents of coniferous forests. Due to this, many boreal countries have designated laws aiming to lower the risk of bark beetle epidemics.

LiDAR as a Tool for Assessing Timber Assortments: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Forest ecosystems strongly contribute to the mitigation of climate change impacts through the carbon stored in forests and through harvested wood products, such as sawed wood and furniture, which are obtained from many types of timber assortments. Timber

Fuel Consumption, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Energy Efficiency of Wood-Harvesting Operations: A Case Study of Stora Enso in Finland

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2022
The EU’s climate and energy framework and Energy Efficiency Directive drive European companies to improve their energy efficiency. In Finland, the aim is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2035. Stora Enso Wood Supply Finland (WSF) had a target, by 2020, to

Effect of a Longitudinal Cut on the Mechanical Properties of Small-Diameter Roundwood of Pinus nigra Arnold

open access: yesBioResources, 2016
The use of roundwood in structures has drawbacks that include tapering and lack of flatness, which can be overcome by making a longitudinal cut to flatten one side. The aim of this work was to compare the mechanical behavior of roundwood vs.
