Increasing attention is being paid to using modern fuelwood as a substitute for fossil
energies to reduce CO 2 emissions. In this context, forest biomass, particularly harvesting …

Fire is a primary disturbance in the world's forested ecosystems and its impacts are
projected to increase in many regions due to global climate change. Fire impacts have been …

In this review, we draw together the research on the two-way connection of streams and their
riparian forests of the boreal zone from ecological points of view. Although the knowledge …

There are concerns about the effect of increasing resource extraction and other human
activities on the soils and vegetation of the boreal zone. The review covers published papers …

Snags and downed logs are substantial components of the detrital carbon pool in boreal
forests. Effects of their decomposition on chemical and physical characteristics of the forest …

Understanding groundwater–surface water (GW–SW) interaction in Chalk catchments is
complicated by the degree of geological heterogeneity. At this study site, in southern United …

Empirical knowledge of long-term ecosystem response to single and compound
disturbances is essential for predicting disturbance effects and identifying management …

Wildfires have recently destroyed large areas of forest in Central Europe. After a fire, the post-
fire vegetation succession rebuilds previously lost biomass and carbon. Nevertheless …

There is still much uncertainty as to how wildfire affects the accumulation of burn residues
(such as black carbon (BC)) in the soil, and the corresponding changes in soil organic …

Carbon (C) in the forest floor (FF) of the boreal region is an important reservoir of terrestrial
C. We examined the effects of stand age and disturbance type (clearcutting vs. wildfire) on …
