26. Regeneration in continuous cover forestry systems
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the studies underlying this thesis has been to qualify and quantify the regeneration of tree species in a range of typical growing environments of possible Continuous Cover Forestry (CCF) silvicultural systems in boreal forests of northern Sweden. Data presented in Papers I and II show that the light environment did not differ significantly between points at different distances to trees, but it was clearly affected by the stand stem density (SSD).

27. The forestry-wood chain : simulation technique, measurement accuracy, traceability concept
Sammanfattning : A customer-oriented production philosophy, an integrated forestry-wood chain and the global vision of Precision Forestry are concepts that researchers and people involved in the forest and wood industry have to deal with in the beginning of this new millennium. Fulfilling the specific requirements for dimension, length, biological features and proof-of-origin that customers demand for the wood products entails the existence of advanced methods and tools for understanding and thus controlling the production process along the forestry-wood value chain.

28. Improved environmental assessment in the development of wood-based products: Capturing impacts of forestry and uncertainties of future product systems
Sammanfattning : The prospect of reducing environmental impacts is a key driver for the development of new wood-based products. But as wood-based products are not necessarily environmentally superior to non-wood alternatives, there is a need to assess the environmental impact of the product and guide the development process.

29. Evaluating thinning practices and assessment methods for improved management in coniferous production forests in southern Sweden
Sammanfattning : Most of our knowledge about wood production of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) and associated silvicultural guidelines are based on field experiments. LÄS MER
30. Safety interventions in Swedish small-scale forestry
Sammanfattning : In private non-industrial forestry, self-employed work has long been associated with high risks for injuries. This thesis is based on four studies that focused on two of the major high-risk activities in this sector in Sweden: two on felling, de-limbing and bucking trees with a chainsaw; and two on off-road use of quad bikes.
