TL;DR: Positive outcomes from mixtures are identified including increased biodiversity, water quality, esthetic and recreational values, as well as reduced stand vulnerability to pest and pathogen damage.
Thinning of Scots pine and Norway spruce monocultures in Sweden

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of thinning intensity, thinning interval, and timing of the first thinning on stand level gross and net stem volume production in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst) was investigated in a nationwide field experiment across Sweden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term responses of Scots pine and Norway spruce stands in Sweden to repeated fertilization and thinning
TL;DR: Interestingly, the non-thinned pine stands showed strong continuing response to fertilization throughout the 30+ year observation period resulting in higher cumulative volume response than the thinned stands, indicating that fertilization and thinning effects were less than additive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of carbon balances between continuous-cover and clear-cut forestry in Sweden.
TL;DR: This study compares carbon balances of CF and CCF, applied as two alternative land-use strategies for a heterogeneous Norway spruce (Picea abies) stand in Sweden and shows that biomass growth and yield is more important than the choice of silvicultural system per se.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation of the Effect of Intensive Forest Management on Forest Production in Sweden
TL;DR: It took a relatively long time for the simulated IFM treatments to result in a significant increase in stem volume production, and more than half of the effect on future growth of IFM methods was because of increased intensity in the regenerations.
