Una pubblicazione che descrive obiettivi e tecnica del trattamento selvicolturale proposto per le pinete artificiali di pino nero dell’Appennino. Si tratta di un diradamento di tipo selettivo finalizzato ad accrescere: la stabilità meccanica complessiva (funzione protettiva), la capacità di crescita delle piante (funzione produttiva), la differenziazione strutturale (funzione di aumento di biodiversità). Il manuale descrive le tecniche adottate che prevedono la scelta di piante candidate ed il taglio delle dirette concorrenti sul piano dominante. L’obiettivo è quello di aprire la copertura dando più spazio alle chiome per incrementarne sviluppo e la capacità fotosintetica e, contemporaneamente, determinare al suolo un diverso regime di luce, acqua e temperatura con conseguente aumento della biodiversità vegetale del sottobosco, quella livello dell’ambiente suolo (funghi, batteri, flora, mesofauna, nematodi) nonché la funzionalità complessiva dell’ecosistema. Il protocollo sperimentale prevede il confronto del diradamento selettivo con quello tradizionale e con il non intervento attraverso rilievi ante e post interventi specifici per l’analisi della biodiversità delle componenti di sottobosco e suolo di cui il manuale riporta le metodologie adottate. La trattazione si conclude con la descrizione delle due aree oggetto del progetto: Pratomagno e Monte Amiata e riporta caratteristiche e primi risultati relativi agli interventi di diradamento applicati. Del manuale sono state realizzate tre versioni linguistiche: italiano, inglese e spagnolo. Della versione italiana è stata realizzata anche una versione cartacea la cui distribuzione è prevista durante le attività di formazione e sensibilizzazione del progetto.

Ugly Deeside. Land vandalism by big timber machines by Adam Watson Pdf

The author noticed severe damage to ground from big timber machines during the 1990s. Later he found that this destroyed the original pinewood soil and vegetation, and led to water-logging and wind-throw of standing trees beside machine ruts. In 2011–15 he surveyed this in many woods on Deeside and Donside, owned by the Forestry Commission and private owners. In every case, mistreatment of woodland by timber machines breached the conditions of The UK Forestry Standard 2011, as authorised by the FC. Machine use severely damages scenery and the public's ability to walk or ski safely. It has damaged and polluted watercourses. The public pay for this vandalism, because the UK timber industry depends on taxpayer's subsidies. The monster machines should be banned, the hypocritical and wasteful FC chopped.

Birds and Forestry by Mark Avery,Roderick Leslie Pdf

In this book, an ornithologist and a forester have combined their skills to try and tease out the real facts behind the various arguments on forestry. The conflict between forestry and nature conservation has become a major environmental issue in Britain in the 1980s. The planting of large tracts of land with exotic conifers and the resulting disturbance of existing plant and animal communities has polarized the debate, each camp believing that it has the most rational view. But the interactions involved are complex. Which bird species are really threatened? How can we judge the relative value of bird species ousted by plantations and the new species which colonize them? How can the need for forest products be reconciled with the demands of conservationists? This fascinating book tackles these issues in a forthright manner. It represents a significant step towards achieving the sort of prudent land planning that will really improve our beleaguered countryside. Jacket painting by Philip Snow. Foreword by David Bellamy.

Individual-based Methods in Forest Ecology and Management by Arne Pommerening,Pavel Grabarnik Pdf

Model-driven individual-based forest ecology and individual-based methods in forest management are of increasing importance in many parts of the world. For the first time this book integrates three main fields of forest ecology and management, i.e. tree/plant interactions, biometry of plant growth and human behaviour in forests. Individual-based forest ecology and management is an interdisciplinary research field with a focus on how the individual behaviour of plants contributes to the formation of spatial patterns that evolve through time. Key to this research is a strict bottom-up approach where the shaping and characteristics of plant communities are mostly the result of interactions between plants and between plants and humans. This book unites important methods of individual-based forest ecology and management from point process statistics, individual-based modelling, plant growth science and behavioural statistics. For ease of access, better understanding and transparency the methods are accompanied by R code and worked examples.

Shrubs and Hedges by Eva Monheim Pdf

A practical, ordinary person's guide to choosing, planting, and caring for the world's most popular plants, Shrubs & Hedges delivers all the know-how you'll need to grow beautiful, healthy shrubs. Whether they're flowering shrubs or evergreen hedges, these long-lived plants fill a lot of space in our landscapes; yet they don't capture as much attention as perennials, annuals, and even trees. The front doors and picture windows of millions of houses world-wide are adorned by shrubs. Despite their ubiquity, selecting and maintaining shrubs remains a mystery to many. Shrubs are all-too-often inappropriately pruned into "meatball" shapes, or alternatively, left to become an overgrown tangle of branches. But as you'll discover in the pages of Shrubs & Hedges, when cared for properly, these workhorse plants have much to offer. They mask foundations, delineate property lines, increase privacy, stabilize soils, provide food for wildlife, and add beauty and interest to the landscape. It’s time for shrubs to take center stage. Shrubs & Hedges eliminates the ambiguities of shrub selection and care by offering: Advice on how to pick the best shrubs for your growing conditions Plant profiles of both dependable classic shrubs and new rising stars Step-by-step propagation instructions for making more shrubs—for free! Shrub identification tips A lesson on the value of hedges and hedgerows The best shrubs for pollinators and other wildlife Pruning illustrations and tips to maximize shrub performance and health Tips for designing with shrubs Drawing on her decades of experience in the plant-care and landscape industries, author and horticulture educator Eva Monheim proves you don’t have to be a “gardener” to see the value in this extensive group of plants.
