Comparison of moth communities following clear-cutting and wildfire disturbance in the southern boreal forest
(Elsevier Science, 2012-04)
Nocturnal macrolepidopteran fauna (moths) of the southern boreal forest of Ontario, Canada, were compared between forests clear-cut or burned by wildfire approximately 5. years previously to assess whether their assemblages ...
Landscape-scale management of exotic forest plantations: synergy between deadwood and clear-cutting synchrony modulates saproxylic beetle diversity
(Springer, 2020)
Context Although saproxylic beetles use deadwood in industrial exotic forest plantations, deadwood and historical land use patterns may interact among each other making difficult the implementation sustainable management ...

Consequences of clear-cutting and drought on fine root dynamics down to 17 m in coppice-managed eucalypt plantations
(2019-08-01)
Improving our understanding of the spatiotemporal dynamics of fine roots in deep soil layers is of utter importance to manage tropical planted forests in a context of climate change. Our study aimed to assess the effect ...
Thirty years of clear-cutting maintain diversity and functional composition of woody-encroached Neotropical savannas
(2021-08-15)
Humans have changed vegetation dynamics in Neotropical savannas by suppressing fires, allowing trees and shrubs to expand into ancient savanna landscapes in a process known as woody encroachment. This woody encroachment ...

Converting clear cutting into a less hostile habitat: The importance of understory for the abundance and movement of the Chestnut-throated Huet-Huet (Pteroptochos castaneus: Rhinocryptidae)
Sustainable forest management of commercial monoculture plantations may be difficult to achieve in plantations of Monterrey pine because these commercial monocultures are managed under a clear cutting system, where the ...
When and how obstacle size and the number of foragers affect clearing a foraging trail in leaf-cutting ants
(Birkhauser Verlag Ag, 2019-02-20)
Taking bad decisions to solve problems can negatively affect organism fitness, hence, the costs accrued by them should modulate decisions about when and how problems should be solved. We studied the problem of trail ...
