Abstract Knowledge of the morphological and physiological responses of trees to planting
density is important for adjusting plantation establishment practices to attain the desired size …

Abstract Purpose of Review Intensive forest management practices are being implemented
worldwide to meet future global demand for wood and wood products while facilitating the …

Tree density affects species diversity in forest plantations. Understory species diversity, tree
regeneration, and soil physicochemical characteristics were assessed under three planting …

Mangroves are well-recognized for their very high carbon sequestration potential. However,
studies on their role in global carbon cycling and climate change are hindered due to lack of …

Stand density is a critical factor in the variation of crown structure and biomass, and can
significantly change the growing space and resource acquisition of trees. However, an …

Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of thinning on stand
growth, carbon (C) sequestration, and soil properties in Brutia pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) …

Intensively managed timber plantations represent 7% of global forest cover and may
partially compensate for deforestation-related biodiversity loss, yet are often criticized as …

Background and Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different
stand densities on wood density (WD), global modulus of elasticity (MOE), and bending …

Digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) data acquired by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV)
have been increasingly used for forest inventory and monitoring. In this study, we evaluated …

Forests cover 39% of low-altitude mountainous areas globally, and they are considered
natural barriers against geophysical flows. Owing to the complexity of flows, the protective …
