Forest degradation induced by intensive forest management and temperature increase by climate change are resulting in biodiversity decline in boreal forests.Intensive forest management and high-end climate emission sc...

Snags are an important component of beech forests that promote biodiversity.However,their occurrence is completely marginal in managed stands.Creating snags in these stands would greatly enhance biodiversity.We invest...

Background: Gradients in local environmental characteristics may favour the abundance of species with particular traits, while other species decline, or favour species with different traits at the same time, without a...
Background:Rapid climate changes lead to an increase in forest disturbance,which in turn lead to growing concerns for biodiversity.While saproxylic beetles are relevant indicators for studying different aspects of bio...
Different projects from national and international calls between 1995 and present.
Intensive forest management has been applied in most Fennoscandian forests for a period of almost one felling rotation.This paradigm has produced even-aged and even-structured forests of different successional stages ...
This paper is part of a PhD-project funded by“Stiftelsen Oscar och Lili Lamms Minne”and Skogssällskapet(Grants to TL);Open access funding provided by Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.
Background:Fires have been an important natural disturbance and pervasive evolutionary force in the boreal biome.Yet,fire suppression has made forest fires rare in the managed landscapes in Fennoscandia,causing signif...

Many forest-dwelling species are dependent on deadwood. Sources of deadwood include competition- and senescence-related mortality of trees, and various damages. This study described a methodology for predicting the ef...

Saproxylic insect assemblages are essential functional components of forest ecosystems that can be affected by forest management.We used a split-plot ANOVA design to analyze differences in selected saproxylic insects...
Restoring deadwood habitat is vital in order to recreate fully functioning forest ecosystems. Letting this process occur naturally can take in excess of one hundred years, thus management practises typically try to ac...

Insects respond to changes in microhabitat caused by canopy disturbance, and thus can be used to examine the ecological impacts of harvesting. Single-tree selection harvesting is the most common silvicultural system u...
