Browsing of sallow (Salix caprea L.) and rowan (Sorbus aucuparia L.) in the context of life history strategies: a literature review
Tor Myking,Erling Johan Solberg,Gunnar Austrheim,James D. M. Speed,Fredrik Bøhler,Rasmus Astrup,Rune Eriksen +6 more
TL;DR: Sallow and rowan saplings show low mortality in moose and deer dominated areas and the species can be characterised as rather resilient to browsing, but concern is that browsing can constrain the development of mature rowan and sallow trees locally, with possible consequences for associated epiphytic biodiversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Google Street View as an alternative method to car surveys in large-scale vegetation assessments.
Ernesto Deus,Joaquim S. Silva,Filipe X. Catry,Miguel Rocha,Miguel Rocha,Francisco Moreira,Francisco Moreira +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that GSV may be a cost-effective alternative to CS and may become a widespread tool in road ecology, particularly in large-scale vegetation assessments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combination of optical and LiDAR satellite imagery with forest inventory data to improve wall-to-wall assessment of growing stock in Italy
TL;DR: A new wall-to-wall estimation of growing stock is obtained by combining ground measurements of four regional forest inventories with the CORINE land cover map of Italy and the global canopy height map derived from Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling individual tree height–diameter relationships for multi-layered and multi-species forests in central Europe
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized nonlinear mixed-effects height-diameter (H-D) model was proposed for estimating forest yield and biomass, and simulation of the vertical stand structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of China’s National Forest Continuous Inventory Database
TL;DR: A forest growth simulation model has been developed to update the NFCI database for years between the periodic inventories, and a three-dimensional virtual reality system of forest landscapes for selected units in the database has also been developed based on Virtual Reality Modeling Language.
