• Individual Tree Diameter and Height Growth Models for 30 Tree Species in Mixed-Species and Uneven-Aged Forests of Mexico 

  Briseño Reyes, Jaime; Corral Rivas, José Javier; Solis Moreno, Raúl; Padilla Martínez, Jaime Roberto; Vega Nieva, Daniel José; López Serrano, Pablito Marcelo; Vargas Larreta, Benedicto; Diéguez Aranda, Ulises; Quiñones Barraza, Gerónimo; López Sánchez, Carlos Antonio (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 

  Molina Valero, Juan Alberto; Diéguez Aranda, Ulises; Álvarez González, Juan Gabriel; Castedo Dorado, Fernando; Pérez Cruzado, César (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 

  Barros Pena, Nieves; Feijoo Juarros, Sergio; Pérez Cruzado, César; Hansen, Lee D. (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 

  Hevia Cabal, Andrea; Crabiffosse Barrero, Alejandra; Álvarez González, Juan Gabriel; Ruiz González, Ana Daría; Majada Guijo, Juan Pedro (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 

  Hevia Cabal, Andrea; Crabiffosse Barrero, Alejandra; Álvarez González, Juan Gabriel; Ruiz González, Ana Daría; Majada Guijo, Juan Pedro (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, ...
