Growing stock monitoring by European National Forest Inventories: Historical origins, current methods and harmonisation

Thomas Gschwantner et al.

Summary: Wood resources have been essential for human welfare throughout history, and growing stock is a key forest attribute monitored by National Forest Inventories. The origins of forest inventories date back to times of wood shortage in Europe, leading to the exploration and planning of wood utilization. Over time, forest surveys have evolved to cover larger areas, with modern NFIs assessing a multitude of variables related to sustainable forest management.

Comparing methods that quantify forest disturbances in the United States' national forest inventory

Lucia A. Fitts et al.

Summary: Forest disturbances play a critical role in ecosystem dynamics. This study compared different methods for quantifying disturbances at individual tree and condition-level scales, and provided a methodology for selecting an appropriate disturbance variable. The results showed that the choice of disturbance variable significantly affected the magnitude of disturbances. These findings are important for measuring disturbance magnitude, forest management plans, and carbon stock reports under future global change scenarios.

For the sake of resilience and multifunctionality, let's diversify planted forests!

Christian Messier et al.

Summary: As of 2020, the world has around 290 million hectares of planted forests, with 131 million hectares being monoculture forests. Monoculture forests provide timber but lack biodiversity and are more vulnerable to disturbances compared to diverse planted forests. Scientific evidence shows that functionally and species diverse planted forests are more resilient and provide greater ecosystem services. Promoting diverse planted forests requires raising awareness, incentivizing diversity in afforestation programs, developing new wood-based products, investing in research, and expanding the evidence base in under-represented regions.

Emerging signals of declining forest resilience under climate change

Giovanni Forzieri et al.

Summary: Forest resilience is changing in response to climate change, with tropical, arid, and temperate forests experiencing a decline in resilience, while boreal forests show an increasing trend. Reductions in resilience are linked to abrupt declines in forest primary productivity.

Post-disturbance reorganization of forest ecosystems in a changing world

Rupert Seidl et al.

Summary: Forest ecosystems are strongly affected by climate change and disturbance activities. The short time window after a disturbance event plays a crucial role in shaping future forest development. Understanding and predicting forest reorganization through analyzing forest structure and composition is essential for anticipating forest change.

Complex drivers of sugar maple (Acer saccharum) regeneration reveal challenges to long-term sustainability of managed northern hardwood forests

Catherine R. Henry et al.

Summary: Single-tree selection silviculture management of northern hardwood forests relies on natural tree regeneration, but current trends in tree regeneration are concerning. Density of sugar maple seedlings and small saplings is high, while that of medium and large saplings is low, suggesting the need for alternative forestry and deer management strategies to promote larger sugar maple regeneration.

High plasticity in germination and establishment success in the dominant forest tree Fagus sylvatica across Europe

Lena Muffler et al.

Summary: The study found that germination and establishment of European beech were highly plastic in response to environmental conditions, with germination success increasing under warmer conditions but establishment and survival being hampered under warmer and drier conditions. Although germination differed among populations and was influenced by seed weight, there was no evidence of local adaptation in any trait.
