Abstract. Interactions between wind and trees control energy exchanges the atmosphere forest canopies. This exchange can lead to widespread damage of trees, is a key disturbance agent in many world's forests. However, most research on this topic has focused conifer plantations, where risk management economically important, rather than broadleaf forests, which dominate carbon cycle. study brings together tree motion time-series data systematically evaluate factors influencing responses...
Abstract Widely distributed in Quebec, balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) is highly vulnerable to wind damage. Recently, there has been a trend forest management increase the use of partial cuttings naturally regenerating stands, leaving remnant trees at increased risk In order limit damage after cuttings, it therefore important find silvicultural practices that minimize these stands. Our main objective was fir-specific values parameters integrate into model ForestGALES, simulate impact...
Widely distributed across Quebec, balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill) is highly vulnerable to wind damage. The harsh winter conditions, freezing temperatures, and snow pose an additional risk. It important find the mechanical loads experienced by trees during adapt forest management minimize risk of damage this species. Many studies have been carried out on loading risks in Northern Europe, mostly based post-storm inventories. However, no study has continuously monitored applied turning...
