A Meta‐analysis of the effects of ground‐based extraction technologies on fine roots in forest soils Open
Fine roots are an important component of forest soil as they play a key role in fundamental processes like plant nutrition and water supply. As with all the features of forest soil, the compaction related to the forest operations and, in p…

Phosphorus speciation in the organic layer of two Swedish forest soils 13–24 years after wood ash and nitrogen application Open
Application of wood ash to forests can restore pools of phosphorus (P) and other nutrients, which are removed following whole tree harvesting. Yet, the mechanisms that affect the fate of ash-P in the organic layer are less well known. Prev…

Strategies to Mitigate the Effects of Soil Physical Disturbances Caused by Forest Machinery: a Comprehensive Review Open
Purpose of Review Ground-based mechanized forest operations can cause severe soil disturbances that are often long lasting and detrimental to the health of forested ecosystems. To reduce these soil disturbances, focus is being increasingly…

Significant Emissions From Forest Drainage Ditches—An Unaccounted Term in Anthropogenic Greenhouse Gas Inventories? Open
Forestry is a natural climate solution for removing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and reaching net zero emissions. Managed boreal forests typically have extensive drainage ditch networks, and these can be hotspots of anthropogenic gre…

Small artificial waterbodies are widespread and persistent emitters of methane and carbon dioxide Open
Inland waters play an active role in the global carbon cycle and emit large volumes of the greenhouse gases (GHGs), methane (CH 4 ) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). A considerable body of research has improved emissions estimates from lakes, re…

Trilemma of Nordic–Baltic Forestry—How to Implement UN Sustainable Development Goals Open
Forests are the dominant land cover in Nordic–Baltic countries, and forestry, the management of forests for improved ecosystem-service (ES) delivery, is an important contributor to sustainability. Forests and forestry support multiple Unit…

Logging Mats and Logging Residue as Ground Protection during Forwarder Traffic along Till Hillslopes Open
Forest soils in Northern Europe are generally trafficked by forest machinery on several occasions during a forest rotation. This may create ruts (wheel tracks), which could increase sediment transport to nearby surface water, reduce recrea…

Long-Term Impact of Liming on Soil C and N in a Fertile Spruce Forest Ecosystem Open
Liming can counteract acidification in forest soils, but the effects on soil C and N pools and fluxes over long periods are less well understood. Replicated plots in an acidic and N-rich 40-year-old Norway spruce ( Picea abies ) forest in …

Long-term effects on soil-water nitrogen and pH of clearcutting and simulated disc trenching of previously nitrogen-fertilised pine plots Open
Forest fertilisation with nitrogen (N) typically increases N leaching for 1–2 years. Some studies have reported effects also after clearcutting. This study presents an analysis of soil-water chemistry data from the 3rd to the 15th year aft…

PESFOR-W: Improving the design and environmental effectiveness of woodlands for water Payments for Ecosystem Services Open
The EU Water Framework Directive aims to ensure restoration of Europe’s water bodies to “good ecological status” by 2027. Many Member States will struggle to meet this target, with around half of EU river catchments currently reporting bel…

Effects of whole-tree harvest on soil-water chemistry at five conifer sites in Sweden Open
Logging residues, such as tops and branches, can provide a useful biofuel for large-scale energy production. However, increasing the harvest intensity may affect the soil nutrient stores and water quality. Here, effects on soil-water chemi…

Nitrogen export from a boreal stream network following forest harvesting: seasonal nitrate removal and conservative export of organic forms Open
Clear-cutting is today the primary driver of large-scale forest disturbance in boreal regions of Fennoscandia. Among the major environmental concerns of this practice for surface waters is the increased mobilization of nutrients, such as d…
