To constrain global warming, we must strongly curtail greenhouse gas emissions and
capture excess atmospheric carbon dioxide,. Regrowing natural forests is a prominent …

Forest ecosystems are an integral component of the global carbon cycle as they take up and
release large amounts of C over short time periods (C flux) or accumulate it over longer time …

Worldwide, forests have absorbed around 30% of global anthropogenic emissions of carbon
dioxide (CO 2) annually, thereby acting as important carbon (C) sinks. It is proposed that …

One promising approach to mitigate the negative impacts of insect pests in forests is to adapt
forestry practices to create ecosystems that are more resistant and resilient to biotic …

A key uncertainty in quantifying dead wood carbon (C) stocks—which comprise~ 8% of total
forest C pools globally—is a lack of accurate dead wood C fractions (CFs) that are employed …

Standing deadwood is an important structural component of forest ecosystems. Its
occurrence and dynamics influence both carbon fluxes and the availability of habitats for …

To evaluate the impact of stand age on the ecosystem's C budget, as well as the post-
harvest recovery of the C storages and fluxes, a chronosequence of Scots pine stands from …

Deadwood provides important ecological and biogeochemical functions in forest
ecosystems. These functions rely on tree species-specific decay dynamics, but only few …
