Book Description
This volume provides a detailed country-by-country account of the increase in forest resources in Europe. The author discusses the implications of this expansion for the future health and vitality of the forests, for forest policy management and silviculture, and for the economic viability and environmental sustainability of the resource. An increase in thinnings and regeneration cuttings is advocated, replacing unstable tree species by true climatic climax species, and shortening rotation ages. The author concludes that preserving the sustainability and biodiversity of Europe's forest ecosystems can be achieved by maintaining the genetic diversity, density, age and health stability of forests, protecting biotopes of endangered species and establishing cultural biotopes and strictly protected natural reserves.

Growth Trends in European Forests
Author: Heinrich Spiecker
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
The recent debate on forest decline and possible climatic changes emphasized the need of growth studies. In the 1980s several studies reported a reduction of forest growth, whereas other studies resulted in quite opposite findings. A study conducted under the auspices of the European Forest Institute (EFI) on forest resources in Europe between 1950 and 1990 showed a remarkable increase in growing stock. In 1993 EFI started a follow-up project on "Growth Trends in European Forests", which focused on the evaluation of available data at the European level. This publication presents the results of the project compiling studies in 12 European countries. Summarizing the individual studies, an increasing growth trend can be observed in most cases, apart from some specific sites.
