TAMM Review: Windstorm impacts on European forest-related systems: An interdisciplinary perspective Open
Windstorms are considered the main disturbing abiotic agent in European forests. They affect a multiplicity of forest-related dimensions, such as forest ecology, forest operations, geomorphology, economy, and socio-cultural aspects. Due to…
