Understanding the impact of forest harvesting is critical to sustainable forest management,
yet there remains much uncertainty regarding how harvesting affects soil carbon (C) …

Forest carbon cycles play an important role in efforts to understand and mitigate climate
change. Large amounts of carbon (C) are stored in deep mineral forest soils, but are often …

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 …

Forest residues and logging slash from pre-commercial forest thinning and regeneration
harvests are a potential feedstock for bioenergy production but there has been a concern …

The increased removal of biomass from the forest sites with whole-tree harvesting has
raised concern over the sustainability of site productivity. In this study, the results from eighty …

Land management practices have strong potential to modify the biogeochemistry of forest
soils, with implications for the long-term sustainability and productivity of forestlands. The …

Dead woody materials are naturally part of the forest ecosystem introduced through the
process of tree mortality or intentionally through stand management practices which result in …

Intensive forest harvest techniques have the potential to alter soil carbon and nutrient stocks
and biogeochemical processes. We investigated how differing levels of organic matter …

Lower-value biomass (LVB) in forests constitutes non-commercial material traditionally left
on site following harvesting. Emerging markets for energy and bioproducts have increased …

A collection of airborne solid or liquid particles (excluding pure water), with a typical size
between 0.01 and 10 micrometers (μm) and residing in the atmosphere for at least several …
