1. Can precommercial thinning be used to create more diversity after planting spruce?
Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreSammanfattning : Mixed forests will harbour other ecosystem services than a planted coniferous monoculture. This study used early results from a long-term experiment to examine if different precommercial thinning treatments can be used to increase diversity in planted stands of Norway spruce (Picea abies) mixed with high densities of natural regeneration of birch (Betula spp. LÄS MER
2. Demographic equilibrium modelling of single tree selection stands in Siljansfors : judging the sustainability of single tree selection systems in Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : Lately debates have occurred questioning the rotation system, which is the most used silvicultural system in Sweden. Continuous cover forestry (CCF) has therefore been suggested as an alternative management method, due to its environmental benefits such as increased biodiversity and higher resilience against extreme weather which is important with the current climate change.

3. Consequences of alternative forest management in riparian buffer zones : a GIS analysis
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : With increasing pressure from policymakers and the general public to conduct alternative forest management throughout the European Union (EU), Sweden needs to find ways to best prioritize the implementation of this alternative management. Alternative management is a term used to describe alternative management methods to clear-cut rotation forestry and can include silvicultural methods such as continuous cover forestry, management increasing proportion tree diversity and presence of broadleaves, and extended rotation lengths.

4. Identifying training needs for the implementation of Continuous Cover Forestry in Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : In recent decades, continuous cover forestry (CCF) has been (re-)discovered as an important toolbox for promoting biodiversity, helping to deliver a range of ecosystem goods and services as well as to satisfy the needs of various stakeholders. CCF is based on ecological principles and one of its most important tenets is the abandonment of large-scale clearfelling. LÄS MER
5. Heterobasidion spp presence in young pine plantations in southern Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreSammanfattning : Heterobasidion species cause great economic loss the forest industry in the northern hemisphere. The spread of infection takes two forms, the first is an airborne infection and the second is a vegetative infection from infected root to healthy root. Much research has been done concerning the Heterobasidion pathogen. LÄS MER
