Tropical and boreal forest atmosphere interactions: A review
Tropical, temperate, and boreal forests are critical components of the climate system, and
the ecosystem services they provide are essential for our society (Bonan et al., 1992, Bonan …

Could continuous cover forestry be an economically and environmentally feasible management option on drained boreal peatlands?
Environmental and economic performance of forestry on drained peatlands was reviewed to
consider whether continuous cover forestry (CCF) could be a feasible alternative to even …

[HTML][HTML] Partial cutting of a boreal nutrient-rich peatland forest causes radically less short-term on-site CO2 emissions than clear-cutting
Wide-spread harvesting of forests growing on drained peatlands is foreseen to take place in
Finland in the near future. A hot question is if continuous cover forestry utilizing partial …

Nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in discharge from drained peatland forests are increasing
The current understanding, based on previous studies, is that increased discharge nutrient
concentrations from boreal peatlands drained for forestry return to similar levels as those of …

[HTML][HTML] Vegetation controls of water and energy balance of a drained peatland forest: Responses to alternative harvesting practices
We quantified the response of peatland water table level (WTL) and energy fluxes to
harvesting of a drained peatland forest. Two alternative harvests (clear-cut and partial …

Selection cuttings as a tool to control water table level in boreal drained peatland forests
Continuous cover management on peatland forests has gained interest in recent years, in
part because the tree biomass with significant evapotranspiration capacity retained in …

Modelling alternative harvest effects on soil CO2 and CH4 fluxes from peatland forests
Over the last century, many peatlands in northern Europe have been drained for forestry.
Forest management with different harvesting regimes has a significant impact on soil water …

Short-term responses of the soil microbiome and its environment indicate an uncertain future of restored peatland forests
Restoring peatland ecosystems involves significant uncertainty due to complex ecological
and socio-economic feedbacks as well as alternative stable ecological states. The primary …
