The global forest carbon (C) stock is estimated at 662 Gt of which 45% is in soil organic
matter. Thus, comprehensive understanding of the effects of forest management practices on …

Freshwaters of the boreal and temperate regions have experienced increased browning
during the last decades. Browning, or brownification, is mostly driven by increased organic …

Boreal peatlands are major sources of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and dissolved organic
carbon (DOC) to downstream aquatic ecosystems, and forest harvesting generally further …

Continuous-cover forestry (CCF) is increasingly argued as an alternative to clear-cut
harvesting in managed boreal forests to improve water quality and quantity, biodiversity, and …

Peatlands provide a variety of ecosystem services besides being important ecosystems for
biodiversity. Sustainable peatland management requires that its impacts are identified, and …

We used a simulation model to analyse the effect of continuous-cover forestry on the carbon
dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) emissions from nutrient-rich drained peatland sites in …

Many recent studies have indicated upward trends in carbon and nutrient concentrations
from drained peatland forests over time since their initial drainage, but the mechanisms …

Extensive use of drainage ditches in European boreal forests and in some parts of North
America has resulted in a major change in wetland and soil hydrology and impacted the …

Continuous cover forestry (CCF) has proven to financially outperform rotation forestry (RF)
with low or even moderate social price of carbon in mineral soils. However, to date there are …

In Finland, the widespread drainage of boreal peatlands has led to increased forest
productivity. The cost is a dramatic increase in soil greenhouse gas emissions. Empirical …
