Abstract Assessing the effect of global warming on forest growth requires a better understanding species‐specific responses to climate change conditions. Norway spruce and European beech are among dominant tree species in Europe largely used by timber industry. Their sensitivity changes extreme climatic events, however, endangers their future sustainability. Identifying key factors limiting survival is therefore crucial for assessing these two ongoing change. We studied vulnerability warmer...
Climate change is increasing crop losses and yield variability with impacts for global food security. In this context, conservation agriculture appears as a potential solution to maintain productivity, soil fertility environmental sustainability. Therefore, understanding the combined effects of tillage succession over long period primary interest. study, we analyzed data from 50 year long-term field experiment assess (i) climatic parameters, wheat organic carbon (SOC) content; (ii)...
Abstract Purpose of the Review The review synthesises current knowledge post-windstorm management in selected European countries order to identify gaps and guide future research. Recent Findings Despite differences forest ownership national regulations, experiences Europe converge at (1) need for mechanization post-windthrow ensure operator safety, (2) importance promote training optimise coordination between all actors involved disturbance (3) implement measures consolidate timber market...
The aim of this work is to investigate the slow pyrolysis olive stones in a rotary kiln as means increase fuel properties and potential use renewable solid fuel. process takes place primarily at temperatures between 300 500 °C resulting transformation biomass into biochar, liquid (up 38.1 wt. %) non-condensable gas fraction 35.4 %). This thermal treatment has positive influence terms increased C content 75.9 %), reduced O/C H/C ratios (down 0.28 0.03), volatile matter moisture 6.9 % below...
In temperate trees, the timings of plant growth onset and cessation affect biogeochemical cycles, water, energy balance. Currently, phenological studies largely focus on specific phenophases their responses to warming. How differently spring phenology responds warming cooling, affects subsequent phases, has not been yet investigated in trees. Here, we exposed saplings Fagus sylvatica L. warmer cooler climate during winter 2013-2014 by conducting a reciprocal transplant experiment between two...
Auswirkungen von meteorologischen Extremereignissen aus der Sicht Sägereien Da Störungen den Holzmarkt destabilisieren können, haben wir eine Umfrage unter 44 kleinen, mittleren und grossen Sägewerken in Schweiz durchgeführt, um zu verstehen, wie diese ungeplante Holzmengen aufnehmen können. Das Tagesgeschäft die Lagerkapazität wurden nach einem extremen Störereignis am stärksten beeinträchtigt. Grosse Sägewerke tendieren dank ihrer grösseren Kapazität stärker reagieren als kleinere...
