Possibilities of using price analysis in decision making on the use of harvester technology in forestry

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2009
The concept of harvester technology is understood as a fully mechanized harvesting technology for the purpose of timber logging, which means timber handling, extraction and forwarding or skidding.

Decision making in forest road planning considering both skidding and road costs: a case study in the Hyrcanian Forest in Iran

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2013
Hyrcanian forest is the only forest designated for commercial timber production in Iran. Ground-based skidding is the most common extraction system used in the forest, though large parts of the forest are still inaccessible due to the low road density (1-

Steam and Vacuum Treatment of Large Timber in Solid Wood Skids

BioResources, 2018
Forest pests are commonly transported along with wood packaging materials. Ports in the United States continue to intercept invasive pests in cross-section timbers that are packaged with steel or heavy consignments. The large cross-section timbers present a greater risk because the fumigation and kiln treatments that are currently used in treating wood

Timber skidding with mules to karstic areas in Mediterranean region of Turkey

Kastamonu Üniversitesi Orman Fakültesi Dergisi, 2017
Timber logging and skidding may be done in one step by means of mules when terrain’s slope and skidding distance is small. Animal logging and skidding operations is one of the traditional hauling systems in some regions of Turkey. But, the use of mules in skidding operation is very decreases in recent years.

Productivity and cost analysis of skidding with Timberjack 450C in forest plantations in Shafaroud watershed, Iran

Journal of Forest Science, 2013
We present research results of timber skidding by a Timberjack 450C skidder in the path cutting of pine trees in Shafaroud watershed. Time studies were conducted to quantify the productivity and perational cost of skidding by a skidder in a plantation in

Regeneration response to post‐disturbance forest management in Central Europe

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
As disturbance activity intensifies, forest management must identify strategies to facilitate the rapid recovery of disturbed sites. By studying 868 disturbed sites across Central Europe, we found that active post‐disturbance management significantly enhanced tree regeneration in regional disturbance hotspots.

Evaluating Post‐Fire Salvage Logging Erosion Mitigation Treatments in the California Sierra Nevada, USA

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
Multiple pairs of mitigation treatments including logging slash, subsoiling, traffic passes and slope were evaluated over time using a rill simulation experiment to determine which treatments were effective at reducing runoff and sediment delivery from logged hillslopes.

Growth, mortality and regeneration responses to ecological forestry treatments are shaped by local factors, species, and initial treatment impact

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
In mixed stands, coniferous species showed growth benefits when coexisting with broadleaf species, possibly due to reduced intraspecific competition or improved access to resources mediated by broadleaf neighbours. This growth advantage was not observed for broadleaf species, indicating asymmetric benefits in mixed stands.
