Abstract:

The knowledge of forest development after disturbances, particularly anthropogenic disturbances, is of major importance for forest management. Many areas of mountain forests in Europe have been affected by human activities such as felling and livestock grazing in the past and then left for natural succession. Those forests provide several ecosystem services (e.g. soil or avalanche protection) and therefore it is vital to know their developmental processes.

Abstract:

Fruit-eating birds play an important role in the seed dispersal of many tropical plants (e.g. Herrera 1984), and the foraging behaviour of avian frugivores may affect their seed-dispersal capabilities (Loiselle & Blake 1999,Schupp 1993, Traveset 1994). For instance,shorter visits tend to produce less clumped seed distributions (Graham et al. 1995). Also,avian frugivores often feed on the fruits of several plant species over short periods of time (Herrera 1984, 1988a; Levey et al. 1994) in some non-random pattern (Herrera 1998). This potentially produces a predictable spatial pattern of the

Not enough forest regeneration? Intensified silviculture and hunting bring success (essay) The influence of red deer, roe deer and chamois on forest regeneration is significant in Swiss forests, especially in mountain forests.

Nevertheless, it is possible to have, even in Switzerland, a dense, site-appropriate forest regeneration. The conditions for this are close-to-nature silviculture over large areas, and hu

Projects are by their very nature subject to conditions of uncertainty that obstruct the decision-making process. Uncertainties involving forestry projects are even greater, as they are combined with time of return on capital invested, being medium to long term. For successful forest planning, it is necessary to quantify uncertainties by converting them into risks. The decision on whether to adopt replacement regeneration or coppice regeneration in a forest stand is influenced by several factors, which include land availability for new forest crops, changes in project end use, oscillations in

Abstract:

High severity stand-replacing wildfires can deeply affect forest ecosystems whose composition includes plant species lacking fire-related traits and specific adaptations. Land managers and policymakers need to be aware of the importance of properly managing these ecosystems, adopting post-disturbance interventions designed to reach management goals, and restoring the required ecosystem services. Recent research frequently found that post-fire salvage logging negatively affects natural regeneration dynamics, thereby altering successional pathways due to a detrimental interaction with the preced

Introduction: Polylepis forest is an ecosystem stated with conservation priority and threatened by anthropogenic effects; extensive livestock is one of the most frequent disturbances. Objective: To study the effect of livestock on the early stages of regeneration of a queñoa (Polylepis australis Bitt.) forest. Materials and methods: Within a pure forest of P. australis at Parque Provincial Potrero de Yala, Jujuy, Argentina, densities of seedlings (˂1 year) and saplings (˃1 year and ˂30 cm) were measured in the presence (0.23 heads∙ha-1) and absence of livestock, for a year.

Abstract:

This paper presents a flexible system model for the prediction of cutting forces and the resulting machining errors in the ball-end milling process. Unlike the previously developed rigid system model, the present model takes into account the instantaneous and regenerative feedback of cutting system deflections to establish the chip geometry in the cutting force calculation algorithm. The deflection-dependent chip geometry is identified by using an iterative procedure to balance the cutting forces and the associated cutting system deflections.

Regeneration of black cherry (Prunusserotina Ehrh.) is difficult on northeast United States forest sites that are dominated by hay-scented fern (Dennstaedtiapunctilobula Michx.). The growth of black cherry seedlings beneath fern and whorled wood aster (Asteracuminatus Michx.) ground cover was monitored for eight growing seasons on weeded and unweeded plots following a shelterwood seed cutting. Black cherry seedlings on plots that were weeded to remove ferns during years 2 through 4 were significantly taller than seedlings on unweeded controls by the end of the 6th year.

Less intensive harvesting methods (e.g., selection cutting, shelterwood cuttings) are recommended as alternatives to clearcutting for maintaining mature forest biodiversity in the process of forest regeneration.

Our aim was to clarify the long-term effects of repeated selective cutting, thinning, and shelterwood cutting on the richness, abundance, and species composition of vascular plants, bryophytes, and lichens in Scots pine forests (Pinus sylvestris L.).

Abstract:

Secondary forests have become the major forest type worldwide, and are experiencing various disturbances and exhibiting obvious vegetation degradation (e.g., reduced biodiversity and decreased productivity) compared with primary forests. Forest gap is a common small-scale disturbance in secondary forests. Promoting natural regeneration under gap disturbance is an important approach to recover biodiversity and ecosystem services for temperate secondary forests. The gap size is the crucial characteristic controlling natural regeneration of many tree species. However, little is known about the sp

Tropical forests can recover after anthropogenic disturbances of light to moderate intensity (Aide et al. 1995, 1996, 2000; Uhl 1987, Uhl et al. 1988); however, severe disturbances (e.g. compaction or loss of soil) often result in conditions that prevent forest recovery. These degraded sites are often dominated by grasses (Aide & Cavelier 1994, Cabin et al. 2002, Cavelier et al. 1998, Uhl et al. 1988) and ferns (Cohen et al. 1995, García et al. 1994, Slocum et al. 2000, Walker & Boneta 1995) that can impose barriers for tree regeneration and arrest the succession process.

Canopy gap size can play a major role in determining composition of tree regeneration after disturbance. The effect of different positions within gaps and within the intact forest has received less study. We seeded six tree species onto two substrates (organic and undisturbed moss) in three positions along a north-south gradient within eight replicate 600-m2 canopy gaps and in the intact forest south of each gap (the gap positions), in 1995 and 1996. Emergence of all species was strongly affected by gap position, seedbed substrate, and year, but there was little evidence of partitioning by gap

Results from my longer-term studies at Pasoh Forest Reserve (Negeri Sembilan, Peninsular Malaysia) established that flowers and fruits were consistently rare as food for birds. A comparison of two forest types at Pasoh revealed the effect of lower food availability on avian trophic organization.

In this system, winter harvesting operations clear trees in strips about 5–7 m wide and using a minimum diameter limit cut extract trees from the adjacent residual forest rows, 5–9 m wide.

Variation in fire severity significantly affected the initial regeneration of the understory plant community. Regeneration response after fire was largely controlled by interactions b

In this study, the capital return rate and carbon storage on forest estates with three boreal tree species are discussed. A growth model is applied, along with verified yield models of sawlogs and veneer logs. Using the normal forest principle, thinning schedules and rotation ages maximizing the estate-level capital return rate are clarified. Regeneration expenses are amortized at the end of any rotation. Capitalizations are greater and rotations longer than in recent studies. The capital return rate is a weak function of initial stem count and rotation age but differs by tree species. The ini
