Forest soil carbon (C) storage is a significant component of the global C cycle, and is
important for sustaining forest productivity. Although forest management may have …

Stump harvesting signifies an intensification of forest management compared with
conventional stem-only or above-ground biomass-only harvesting. There are many practical …

Forest soils represent a substantial portion of the terrestrial carbon (C) pool, and changes to
soil C cycling are globally significant not only for C sequestration but also for sustaining …

The temperate forests of North America may play an important role in future carbon (C)
sequestration strategies. New, multiyear, ecosystem-scale C cycling studies are providing a …

Thinning is a widely-used management practice to reduce tree competition and improve
wood production and quality in forest plantations. Thinning affects the soil ecosystem by …

Thinning is a silvicultural tool that is used to facilitate the growth of timber plantations
worldwide. Plantations are important CO 2 sinks, but the mechanism by which thinning …

We used eddy-covariance (EC) measurements of net ecosystem exchange (NEE) above
canopy to assess the effects of thinning on CO 2 fluxes at the ICOS Sweden site Norunda in …

Sustainable forestry requires adopting more ecosystem-informed perspectives. Tree
thinning improves forest productivity by encouraging the development of the understory …

Thinning is a principal silvicultural practice in temperate plantations with potential impacts
on soil respiration (Rs). However, most of the existing measurements of Rs dynamics after …

Understanding the effects of forest management practice on soil respiration (Rs) and its
temperature sensitivity (Q10) is crucial for the accurate estimation of the global carbon …
