• The arthropod community of boreal Norway spruce forests responds variably to stump harvesting 

  Kataja-aho, Saana; Hannonen, Paloma; Liukkonen, Titta; Rosten, Hertta; Koivula, Matti J.; Koponen, Seppo; Haimi, Jari (Elsevier BV, 2016)

  Forest fuel harvesting increases the need to collect not just logging residues but also tree stumps from harvested stands. This biomass removal has raised concern over forest biodiversity. Here, the effects of stump ...

• Decomposer community in boreal coniferous forest soil after forest harvesting : mechanisms behind responses 

  Siira-Pietikäinen, Anne (2002)

  Effects of different forest regeneration methods on decomposer animals in boreal coniferous forest and the mechanisms behind the responses were studied in three field experiments and a laboratory experiment. The study ...

• Sensitivity of soil decomposer communities to habitat fragmentation : an experimental approach 

  Rantalainen, Minna-Liisa (Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2004)

  FM Minna-Liisa Rantalainen osoittaa väitöskirjatyössään, että metsämaaperän eliöyhteisöt sietävät suhteellisen hyvin elinympäristönsä pirstaloitumista. Yhtenä harvoista aiheesta tehdyistä tutkimuksista työ luo myös pohjaa ...

• Contrasting Norway spruce disturbance dynamics in managed forests and strict forest reserves in Slovakia 

  Potterf, Mária; Svitok, Marek; Mezei, Pavel; Jarčuška, Benjamín; Jakuš, Rastislav; Blaženec, Miroslav; Hlásny, Tomáš (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2023)

  Forest disturbances are intensifying globally, yet regional drivers of these dynamics remain poorly understood. We investigated recent disturbance intensities in Norway spruce (Picea abies L.) forests in Slovakia ...

• Effects of stump removal on soil decomposer communities in undisturbed patches of the forest floor 

  Kataja-aho, Saana; Saari, Eeva; Fritze, Hannu; Haimi, Jari (Taylor & Francis, 2011)

  Soil preparation after clear-cutting leads to fragmentation of forest floor and, consequently, changes the habitat of decomposers. Stump removal for bioenergy is further increasing the disturbance in the soil. We studied ...
