Abstract Purpose of Review Our review provides an overview of forest attributes measurable
by forest inventory that may support the integration of non-provisioning ecosystem services …

Deadwood represents a significant carbon pool and unique biodiversity reservoir in forests
and savannas but has been largely overlooked until recently. Storage and release of carbon …

There are limited studies of decomposition of coarse woody debris (CWD) in natural
conditions of multi-species mesic broad-leaved forests. We investigated 49 lying logs of 7 …

Due to global change, temperate forests are expected to face growing threats to forest health
(eg insects/disease) and increasing probabilities of severe disturbances (eg wildfires), which …

Deadwood is a critical component of forest ecosystems, storing nutrients for plants and
serving as a carbon store and emission source. Climate change influences forest ecosystem …

Ecologists are increasingly relying on national forest inventories to address a wide variety of
issues. The 'FIESTA'R package (Forest Inventory ESTimation and Analysis) is a tool that …

Wildfire is a growing threat in the western US, driven by high fuel loads, a warming climate,
and rising human activity in the wildland urban interface. Diverse stakeholders must …

Wildland fires are a major source of gases and aerosols, and the production, dispersion, and
transformation of fire emissions have significant ambient air quality impacts and climate …

Improving the carbon storage in terrestrial ecosystems can effectively reduce atmospheric
CO2, which is one of the important ways of mitigating global climate change. The knowledge …

Attributes of deadwood in forests, including quantity, landscape position, and state of decay,
influence numerous ecosystem processes such as wildfire behavior, tree regeneration, and …
