Thinning is a key silvicultural practice for managing forests; however, its effects on stand growth and yield remain debated. This study evaluated the growth and yield responses to thinning in even-aged Quercus robur stands in Galicia (NW Spain) usin...
This paper describes a study conducted to investigate the spread of Lecanosticta acicola, the cause of brown spot needle blight (BSNB), in Pinus mugo dune forests in the Polish Baltic region. Between 2023 and 2025, 22 sites were surveyed, including c...
Background: Winch-assisted harvesting is an alternative to traditional cable yarding on steep slopes, offering improved operational efficiency and fewer limitations. Knowledge on the effects of winch-assisted harvesting on soil disturbance are limite...
Urban green spaces are pivotal to enhancing carbon sinks and advancing carbon neutrality goals, yet the structural complexity of green space units often leads to scale mismatches and weak spatial responsiveness in current assessments. This study deve...
Pruning is a regular and essential urban tree maintenance practice aimed at sustaining overall health, ecosystem services, and public safety. However, knowledge of post-pruning recovery dynamics remains limited, which in turn hinders accurate assessm...
In Korea, a persistent shortage of Japanese larch (Larix kaempferi) seeds and the high costs of managing seed orchards have created a significant demand for alternative reforestation methods. This pilot study, conducted over nine years, evaluated the...
The intensity of wildfires is projected to increase with the rising frequency of droughts due to climate change. Management practices following forest fires must include restoring the appropriate species composition. This study was performed within t...
The biggest concern for global policymakers is how to tackle the worsening global climate and rising temperatures, and they believe that CO2 emissions are the main culprit behind this catastrophe. In this regard, the 2015 Paris Agreement was a major...
Softwood-based composites are increasingly used in structural and nonstructural applications owing to their renewability, cost-effectiveness, and favorable strength-to-weight performance. This study applies a systematic literature review and comparat...
The exon junction complex (EJC) is a central mediator of post-transcriptional regulation in eukaryotes. A comprehensive, systematic analysis of EJC core genes has been lacking in Phyllostachys edulis (P. edulis). Here, we identified 147 EJC core gene...
