How does management affect soil C sequestration and greenhouse gas fluxes in boreal and temperate forests?–A review
The global forest carbon (C) stock is estimated at 662 Gt of which 45% is in soil organic
matter. Thus, comprehensive understanding of the effects of forest management practices on …

Tree‐to‐tree competition in mixed European beech–Scots pine forests has different impacts on growth and water‐use efficiency depending on site conditions
Mixed conifer–hardwood forests can be more productive than pure forests and they are
increasingly considered as ecosystems that could provide adaptation strategies in the face …
