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

Compatible Taper and Volume Systems Based on Volume Ratio Models for Four Pine Species in Oaxaca Mexico
(MDPI, 2021)Estimating tree volume components is an essential element in sustainable forest management. Compatible taper and merchantable outside-bark volume systems based on volume ratio models were globally fitted to four pine species ... -
FORTLS: An R Package for Processing TLS Data and Estimating Stand Variables in Forest Inventories
(MDPI, 2021)Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) enables rapid, automatic, and detailed 3D representation of surfaces with an easily handled scanner device. TLS, therefore, shows great potential for use in Forest Inventories (FIs). However, ... -
Carbon balance for different management practices for fast growing tree species planted on former pastureland in southern Europe: a case study using the CO2Fix model
(Springer, 2012)Although it is known that forestry mitigates carbon emissions to some degree, there is still a need to investigate the extent to which changes in forest management regimes affect the carbon cycle. In a climate-change ... -
Poplar Short Rotation Coppice Plantations under Mediterranean Conditions: The Case of Spain
(MDPI, 2020)Developing a circular bioeconomy based on the sustainable use of biological resources, such as biomass, seems to be the best way of responding to the challenges associated with global change. Among the many sources, short ... -
