11. Insect diversity on clearcuts in boreal forest landscapes
Sammanfattning : Intensive management and loss of natural disturbance dynamics in boreal forests leads to habitat loss and degradation for forest dwelling species. As a consequence, many species have become threatened, especially those dependent on dead wood. LÄS MER
12. The forgotten forest : on thinning, retention, and biodiversity in the boreal forest
Sammanfattning : Fennoscandia has had a long history of intensive forest management. It can therefore be regarded a trial zone for other boreal regions which are still largely unaffected by forestry. In Fennoscandia, forestry has resulted in many threatened species and methods that maintain biodiversity have therefore been called for. LÄS MER
13. Improving boreal forest regeneration in a variable climate
Sammanfattning : Regeneration of boreal forests in Sweden mainly involves planting Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) seedlings on clear-cut areas, although there is an increasing interest in planting broadleaves and in applying continuous cover forestry (CCF). LÄS MER
14. Cyanobacteria in symbiosis with boreal forest feathermosses : from genome evolution and gene regulation to impact on the ecosystem
Sammanfattning : Among dinitrogen (N2)-fixing some cyanobacteria can establish symbiosis with a broad range of host plants from all plant lineages including bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. In the boreal forests, the symbiosis between epiphytic cyanobacteria and feathermosses Hylocomium splendens and Pleurozium schreberi is ecologically important. LÄS MER
15. Carbon Balance Implications of Forest Biomass Production Potential
Sammanfattning : Forests in boreal and temperate forest-ecosystems have importance for carbonbalance since they sequester large amount of atmospheric carbon by uptake ofcarbon-dioxide during photosynthesis, and transfer and store carbon in the forestecosystem. Forest material can be used for bio-fuel purposes and substitute fossilfuels, and supply wood products, which can replace carbon-and-energy-intensivematerials. LÄS MER
