Inland waters play an active role in the global carbon cycle and emit large volumes of greenhouse gases (GHGs), methane (CH4 ) dioxide (CO2 ). A considerable body research has improved emissions estimates from lakes, reservoirs rivers but recent attention been drawn to importance small, artificial waterbodies as poorly quantified potentially important emission hotspots. Of particular interest are drainage ditches constructed ponds. These waterbody types prevalent many landscapes their...
Abstract Fine roots are an important component of forest soil as they play a key role in fundamental processes like plant nutrition and water supply. As with all the features soil, compaction related to operations and, particular, wood extraction via ground‐based technologies could lead significant impact on presence fine affected by passage machines. Considering lack review, we used meta‐analytic approach synthesise effect sizes affecting using multivariate mixed‐effects model. The obtained...
SUMMARY The 15 N natural abundance and concentrations of fruit bodies from 70 species (23 genera) ectomycorrhizal fungi found in boreal forests are presented. Large intraspecific intrageneric differences were found, e.g. 8.3‰ the Dermocybe crocea 12.6‰ genus Cortinarius. In addition, significant both δ %N between different parts bodies, with cap material giving consistently higher values. Proteins amino acids enriched by 9.7±0.4‰ (mean ± 1 SE) relative to chitin, irrespective part body...
Abstract. Clear-cutting is today the primary driver of large-scale forest disturbance in boreal regions Fennoscandia. Among major environmental concerns this practice for surface waters increased mobilization nutrients, such as dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) into streams. But while DIN loading to first-order streams following harvest has been previously described, downstream fate and impact these inputs not well understood. We evaluated organic (DON) a landscape that altered by harvests...
Abstract Forestry is a natural climate solution for removing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and reaching net zero emissions. Managed boreal forests typically have extensive drainage ditch networks, these can be hotspots of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, potentially offsetting the terrestrial gain. However, there lack data detailing GHG emissions from ditches on mineral soils, where most forestry occurs. Here, we address this knowledge gap using two approaches. First,...
We present a framework for evaluating and communicating effects of human activity on water quality in managed forests. The is based the following processes: atmospheric deposition, weathering, accumulation, recirculation flux. Impairments to are characterized terms their extent, longevity frequency. Impacts communicated using “traffic lights” metaphor characterizing severity impairments arising from forestry other anthropogenic pressures. most serious boreal forests include (i) activities...
Integrated long-term, in-situ observations are needed to document ongoing environmental change, "ground-truth" remote sensing and model outputs predict future Earth system behaviour. The scientific societal value of increases with site representativeness, temporal duration, number parameters measured comparability within across sites. Research Infrastructures (RIs) can support harmonised, cross-site data collection, curation publication. Integrating RI networks through co-location...
Abstract Liming can counteract acidification in forest soils, but the effects on soil C and N pools fluxes over long periods are less well understood. Replicated plots an acidic N-rich 40-year-old Norway spruce ( Picea abies ) SW Sweden (Hasslöv) were treated with 0, 3.45 8.75 Mg ha −1 of dolomitic lime (D0, D2 D3) 1984. Between 1984 2016, organic to 30 cm depth increased by 28 (30% increase) D0 decreased 9 (9.4% decrease) D3. The change was not significant (+ 2 ). Soil changed...
