A Unidade de Xestión Forestal Sostible (UXFS) é un grupo de temática forestal que realiza actividades de investigación así como traballos e proxectos para empresas e Administracións públicas. Orixe: A UXFS constituíuse a finais do ano 2001 por unha serie de profesores pertencentes aos Departamentos de Enxeñaría Agroforestal, Produción Vexetal e Edafoloxía e Química Agrícola, que xa viñan colaborando regularmente en proxectos e traballos de temática forestal. Desde o ano 2002 a UXFS pertence ao Catálogo de Grupos de Investigación da Universidade de Santiago de Compostela (código GI-1837-UXFS) e dende o 2009 ao Catálogo de Grupos de Investigación pertencentes ao Sistema Público de I+D+I de Galicia (código 09IDI1794). É Grupo de Investigación de Referencia Competitiva do Sistema Universitario de Galicia nos períodos 2006-2009 (DOG de 13/12/2006), 2011-2013(DOG de 19/09/2011) e 2014/2017 (DOG de 17/10/14) ao gozar dunha axuda concedida pola Xunta de Galicia e cofinanciada polo FEDER nos dous primeiros períodos. Persoal: A UXFS está composta por persoal fixo (dez profesores doutores enxeñeiros de montes, biólogos e enxeñeiros agrónomos e tres non doutores), un grupo variable de persoal en formación e de apoio, e unha serie de colaboradores de distintas universidades nacionais (Universidades de León e Oviedo) e estranxeiras (Universidade de Göttingen, Alemaña; Dartmouth College, Hanover, EEUU; Universidade Juárez de Durango, México) e centros de investigación (CSIC de Santiago de Compostela, INIA de Madrid). Ademais, mantén continuos contactos con outros centros de ensino universitarios e de investigación españois e estranxeiros

Individual Tree Diameter and Height Growth Models for 30 Tree Species in Mixed-Species and Uneven-Aged Forests of Mexico
(MDPI, 2020)Lack of knowledge of individual tree growth in species-rich, mixed forest ecosystems impedes their sustainable management. In this study, species-specific models for predicting individual diameter at breast height (dbh) ... -
Assessing site form as an indicator of site quality in even-aged Pinus radiata D. Don stands in north-western Spain
(Springer, 2019)Key message: Site form and site index have shown similar precision for estimating site quality in even-aged Pinus radiata D. Don stands in north-western Spain. Additionally, SF presents the advantage that it does not ... -
Effect of soil storage at 4 °C on the calorespirometric measurements of soil microbial metabolism
(AIMS Press, 2017)Soil samples must usually be stored for a time between collection and measurements of microbial metabolic properties. However, little is known about the influence of storage conditions on microbial metabolism when studied ... -
Novel approach to assessing residual biomass from pruning: A case study in Atlantic Pinus pinaster Ait. timber forests
(Elsevier, 2017)Forestry residual biomass from pruning operations is an important, though little studied, potential resource. Residues normally remain in the stand, since tools for their accurate quantification do not exist and it has no ... -
Assessing the effect of pruning and thinning on crown fire hazard in young Atlantic maritime pine forests
(Elsevier, 2018)Management of fuel to minimize crown fire hazard is a key challenge in Atlantic forests, particularly for pine species. However, a better understanding of effectiveness of silvicultural treatments, especially forest pruning, ...
