Sediment pathways in a tropical forest: effects of logging roads and skid trails
Hydrological Processes, 2004AbstractSignificant erosion occurred from recently constructed forest logging roads and skid trails in a small headwater catchment in Peninsular Malaysia. Soil loss was estimated by measuring dimensions of all significant rills and gullies along the road, as well as by measuring height of preserved soil pedestals in sidecast and fill material and on ...

Effectiveness of Skid Trail Closure Techniques. Forest Operations Research Highlights [PDF]
, 2015 Overland skid trails produce less erosion than bladed skid trails because they retained more ground cover. Slopes produced 82% less erosion than the bladed skid trails.

Residual tree damage along skidding trails in beech stands in Greece
Journal of Forestry Research, 2015We studied the damage caused to unfelled trees during skidding operations in four beech stands of northern and central Greece that were managed under differing harvesting systems. After timber was harvested we recorded and analyzed all damage to a width of 2 m along both sides of the skid trails.

Soil Bulk Density Recovery on Compacted Skid Trails in Central Idaho
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1985Abstract In west‐central Idaho, the bulk densities of soil in major skid trails were compared with those of adjacent undisturbed soil in order to determine rates of recovery. Five study sites on each of two soils, one formed from granitic material (mixed, frigid, Typic Xeropsamments) and the other from volcanic ...

The productivity of stands and their accessibility via the skid trail network
2011The aim of this study was to determine the influence of skid trail network design: their width and spacing between them, on the reduction of stand productivity. The study presents a model for calculating the decrease of the current annual increment of the total merchantable bole volume per hectare (P) for the timber harvesting technologies on the ...

Interaction between soil characteritics of skid trail and tractive characteritics of skidder
2005Istraživanje međusobne ovisnosti značajki tla traktorske (šumske vlake) i vučne značajke skidera pri privlačenju provedeno je na dvije traktorske vlake jednolikog nagiba 15 % i 30 %. Vučna je značajka skidera utvrđivana pri privlačenju uz nagib i niz nagib. Rezultati istraživanja se temelje na 19 vučnih pokusa.
