Alternative silvicultural practices with variable retention improve bird conservation in managed South Patagonian forests
(Elsevier Science, 2009-01)
Alternative silvicultural approaches to timber management, such as regeneration treatments with different degrees of stand retention, may mitigate negative effects of clear-cutting or shelterwood cuts in forested ecosystems, ...
Variable retention effects on vascular plants and beetles along a regional gradient in Nothofagus pumilio forests
(Elsevier Science, 2017-12)
Variable retention mitigates harmful effects of traditional practices on biodiversity of forest ecosystems, preserving habitats for species affiliated with closed forests and providing habitats for early-seral species. In ...
Not gone with the wind: Vegetation complexity increases seed retention during windy periods in the Argentine Semiarid Chaco
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-03)
We experimentally studied whether different degrees of vegetation structural complexity, developed under different land use regimes, affected the retention of seeds in situ in the semiarid Chaco forest. We sought to answer ...
Suitable conditions for natural regeneration in variable retention harvesting of southern Patagonian Nothofagus pumilio forests
(Springer, 2019-06)
Background: Variable retention (aggregated and dispersed retention) harvesting proposed for Nothofagus pumilio was designed for timber purposes and biodiversity conservation. Harvesting by opening canopy generates different ...
Knowledge arising from long-term research of variable retention harvesting in Tierra del Fuego: where do we go from here?
(Springer, 2019-07)
Nothofagus pumilio forests in Tierra del Fuego are the southernmost forests in the world, where extreme climate conditions represent a challenge to attain sustainable forest management. Retention forestry was proposed as ...
Variable retention harvesting influences belowground plant-fungal interactions of Nothofagus pumilio seedlings in forests of southern Patagonia
(PeerJ Inc., 2018-07-06)
Background. The post-harvest recovery and sustained productivity of Nothofagus pumilio forests in Tierra del Fuego may be affected by the abundance and composition of ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF). Timber harvesting alters ...
Conservación de la diversidad del sotobosque en bosques de Nothofagus pumilio bajo distintos tipos de aprovechamiento forestal
(2017-06-22)
El aprovechamiento homogeneiza la estructura forestal y afecta la biodiversidad. Las nuevas propuestas aplican distintos grados y formas de retención, compatibilizando objetivos económicos y ecológicos. Esta tesis comparó ...
Survival and growth of Nothofagus pumilio seedlings under several microenvironments after variable retention harvesting in southern Patagonian forests
(Springer, 2014-01)
Context
Variable retention prescriptions for Nothofagus pumilio forests provide for biodiversity conservation and natural regeneration by controlled opening of the canopy. Harvesting generates different microenvironments ...
Ground-dwelling spiders and understory vascular plants on Fuegian austral forests: community responses to variable retention management and their association to natural ecosystems
(Elsevier Science, 2020-10)
Variable retention mitigates negative effects of traditional harvesting on biodiversity, maintaining legacies in harvested forests as habitat for sensitive species, and generating other habitats for early-seral species. ...
