Sažetak Forest operations often enhance runoff and soil loss in roads and skid trails, where
cut slopes and fill slopes are the most important source of sediment. This study evaluated …

Temperate forest soils are an important sink for methane (CH 4); however, disturbance
through forest management and the creation of skid trails may significantly decrease soil's …

Cohesionless soil deposits are susceptible to volume changes due to extensive seasonal
weather variations in the Canadian Prairies. This research aimed to develop a clear …

Forest operations can lead to increased runoff and soil loss on roads and skid trails. Best
