Poor performance of broadleaf plantations and possible remedial silvicultural systems - a review [PDF]

, 2012
Peer-reviewedOver the last two decades planting of broadleaves has been part of forest policy. In addition to the provision of a range of ecosystem services, it is intended that this resource will have a direct economic stimulus through the supply of ...

Spatiotemporal Analysis of Firewood‐Related GHG Emissions in Brazil Using Moran's I and LISA: Insights for Regional Energy Planning

GCB Bioenergy
The impacts of the uncontrolled use of forest resources extend beyond the local level, playing a crucial role globally. This article analyzed the distribution and spatial dependence of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Brazil's intermediate regions ...

Ash seedlings in a reciprocal transplant experiment—the extent of damage of mature forest stands affects ash offspring performance

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
In past decades, ash dieback has caused a rapid decline of European ash (Fraxinus excelsior) in temperate forests of Europe. Numerous studies focus on mitigating the negative impacts of ash dieback to forest ecosystems or identifying resistant genotypes.

Engaging the public in plant science: Communication facilitators and barriers of scaling up a citizen science campaign

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 9, Page 2925-2940, September 2026.
Abstract Volunteers have been involved in nature observations for decades through citizen science initiatives, providing large data sets as well as problem identification that allow a more complete understanding of many natural phenomena. Although communication is a core component in citizen science, the key factors that determine its effectiveness in ...

A critique of California’s Forest Practice Rules’ capacity to accommodate resilience silviculture

California Agriculture
The wildfire crisis in California will likely require fundamental changes to forest practice regulations so that foresters can practice resilience silviculture that modifies forest conditions sufficiently to avoid further conversions of the landscape ...

Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1662-1674, September 2026.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...

Forest Floor Protection: The Critical Defense Against Post‐Harvest Soil Carbon Loss

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding the dynamics of soil carbon accumulation and loss following forest harvest is crucial for sustainable forest operations in western Canada. However, the region's diverse climates and forest types complicate broad generalizations regarding disturbance impacts. We synthesized 20 years of soil carbon stock (SCS) data from the British

Temperate forest heterogeneity decreases local and landscape‐scale spider diversity through habitat filtering despite increasing species turnover

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1793-1806, September 2026.
In a large‐scale German forest experiment, habitat heterogeneity increased spider turnover but reduced local alpha diversity through habitat filtering. Together, these effects lowered landscape‐scale spider diversity. As such, the study shows whether environmental heterogeneity increases or decreases biodiversity depends on the balance between habitat ...
