Effects of phenotypic selection on height-diameter ratio of Norway spruce and Scots pine in Sweden
Silva Fennica, 2018 Genetically improved Norway spruce ( (L.) Karst.) and Scots pine ( L.) are extensively used in operational Swedish forestry plantations. However, relatively little is known about the stem slenderness (height-diameter ratio) of genetically improved ...

Performance of lodgepole pine and Scots pine in field trials located in north-west Russia
Silva Fennica, 2017 Mortality, stem growth and quality of lodgepole pine ( var. ) originating from the six Swedish seed orchards and local Scots pine ( L.) were estimated in four field trials established in the Komi Republic (north-west Russia). A randomized row-plot design

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water pollution by oil and organic substances causes serious problems that threaten the ecosystem. Superhydrophobic materials represent an effective solution for removing oil from water. The present paper investigates the development of a low‐cost, superhydrophobic composite for oil–water separation.

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Two large‐scale experiments investigated fire spread mechanisms in vegetation ground fires in a pine forest and an agricultural field within the European TREEADS project. The tests, conducted in Saxony‐Anhalt and Brandenburg, targeted regions with dry, sandy soils and extensive pine stands and aim to improve suppression strategies and wildfire

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Microbial succession on decomposing root litter in a drought-prone Scots pine forest
The ISME Journal, 2019 Decomposition is a major flux of the carbon cycle in forest soils and understanding the involved processes is a key for budgeting carbon turnover. Decomposition is constrained by the presence of biological agents such as microorganisms and the underlying
