Legacy of harvesting methods on coppice-rotation Eucalyptus at experimental and operational scales
Trees, Forests and People, 2022 Coppice-rotation stands comprise 20 to 30% of the Eucalyptus forests in Brazil and understanding the factors influencing the production ecology of the coppice-rotation is fundamental to improving silvicultural prescriptions. We investigated the effect of

Coppice loss and persistence in Germany
Trees, Forests and People, 2022 Coppicing is an ancient form of forest and woodland management. Coppice harbours important biodiversity and has a high cultural value, but has been transformed into high forest, neglected and abandoned over vast areas of Central Europe during the past ...

Early history of short-rotation forestry
Silva Fennica, 1975 In the first place the term short-rotation forestry is being used in the sense of intensive tree growing during a short rotation time using reproduction by coppice shoots from broad-leaved tree material which has been specially bred for this purpose, or ...

Biodiversity in short-rotation coppice
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2019 Abstract Although short-rotation coppice (SRC) is a sustainable cultivation technique, biodiversity issues keep policy makers from encouraging farmers to establish SRC. From the 47 reviewed publications of this review 91% reported on poplar or willow SRC, and 63% focused on animal diversity.

Comparison of wood and foliage production of four Eucalyptus species using management of short rotation coppice in the Koushkak reaserch station [PDF]
مجله جنگل ایران, 2022 Eucalyptus species are one of the most suitable tree species in terms of wood production for pulp and paper industry and leaves for pharmaceutical industry. This study aims to determine the wood and foliage production in coppiced Eucalyptus species. This

Yield and fuel characteristics of willows tested for biomass production on agricultural soil
Research in Agricultural Engineering, 2016 Short rotation coppice (SRC) plantations of fast growing trees in Czech Republic may be grown on approximately 120,000 ha in future, as indicated in the Czech Action Plan for Biomass. Until now, 2,800 ha of SRC were established using predominantly poplar

Greenhouse gas balance of cropland conversion to bioenergy poplar short-rotation coppice [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 The production of bioenergy in Europe is one of the strategies conceived to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The suitability of the land use change from a cropland (REF site) to a short-rotation coppice plantation of hybrid poplar (SRC site) was ...
