How microclimate influences the spring phenological responses to decreased snow cover in four tree species seedlings in a boreal forest

Scientific Reports
Heat accumulation and spring freeze, both strongly influenced by snow cover, are key factors regulating the onset of spring phenology. In forest ecosystems, decreased snow cover due to climate change may differently impact heat accumulation and the ...

Mapping Skid Trails and Evaluating Soil Disturbance From UAV‐Based LiDAR Surveys in Mediterranean Forests

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil disturbance resulting from forest harvesting activities can have significant and lasting environmental consequences, particularly in sensitive ecosystems such as Mediterranean forests. Skid trails, the routes used by machinery to extract timber, are among the most critical areas of impact, and their detection is critical for assessing ...

Nutrition Status of Trees on Spoil Heaps After Coal Mining Can Be Inferred From Seasonal Dynamics of Foliar Nutrient Concentrations

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A stable vegetation cover on given habitat conditions can be one of the possible requirements for post‐mining sites, as it can prevent erosion and dustiness of these anthropogenic surfaces and bring several practical future benefits, such as biomass production and microclimate improvement.

Another dimension from LiDAR – Obtaining foliage density from full waveform data [PDF]

, 2011
LiDAR tells the user where surfaces are, not what they are. In this study we investigate the potential for waveform LiDAR to provide more information on the nature of the returns over forestry. Waveform LiDAR was acquired for ten Pinus radiata plots in a

Sanitary Logging in the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve: One Problem, One Legislation but Different Criteria and Different Treatments

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bark beetles are small insects that inhabit the bark of trees. When their population increases excessively, they can weaken the trees and cause their death. In México, federal regulations obligate forest landowners to carry out sanitary logging to control bark beetle outbreaks in adherence to official procedures.

Prediction of palm-tree ganoderma affection degree by reflectance spectroscopy: Proposed methodology [PDF]

, 2009
The aim of this study was thus to test the relevance of statistical methods to detect the variations in spectral signature of oil-palm trees correlated to Ganoderma disease, a fungus responsible of high loss of yield and trees in palm groves.

Carbon Stock and Environmental Variations of Typical Plantations in Mufu Mountain in Hubei Province, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forest ecosystems play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. As a significant terrestrial carbon sink, plantations exhibit carbon stock patterns that are shaped by tree species composition, stand structure, and environmental conditions. Here, we investigated typical plantation types in the Mufu Mountain, Hubei Province.
