Occurrence patterns of dead wood and wood-dependent lichens in managed boreal forest landscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dead wood is a key resource for biodiversity, on which thousands of forest organisms are dependent. Because of current forest management, there has been a large-scale change in dead wood amounts and qualities, and consequently, many wood-dependent ...

The conservation of saproxylic beetles in boreal forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Forest management has altered the age structure, tree species composition and dead wood availability of Swedish boreal forests. As a consequence, many saproxylic (wood living) insect species have decreased in abundance and many species are threatened ...

Biological degradation of resin acids in wood chips by wood-inhabiting fungi [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1995
Resin acids in many pulp mill effluents are primary sources of toxicity to fish. Inconsistent biological detoxification of chlorinated and nonchlorinated resin acids in secondary treatment of pulp mill effluents is a continuing source of concern. An alternative approach to effluent detoxification is to remove or modify the toxic compounds present in ...
