Detecting Coppice Legacies from Tree Growth
In coppice-with-standards, once a common type of management in Central European lowland forests, selected trees (standards) were left to grow mature among the regularly harvested coppice stools to obtain construction wood. After the underwood was harvested, the forest canopy opened rapidly, giving standard trees an opportunity to benefit from reduced competition. Although this silvicultural sys...
متن کاملHarvesting to Get a Eucalyptus Coppice Crop1
When eucalyptus trees are felled, new stems often grow from the stumps to produce another crop of trees. This new crop is called the coppice crop to distinguish it from the seedling crop. Coppice crops can be important in growing eucalypts profitably. Replanting costs are saved and coppice crop rotations are usually shorter than those of seedling crops, because coppice stems grow faster than se...
متن کاملStatistical treatment of umbra length inside willow coppice
Measurements of the statistical characteristics of umbra and sunflecks at different depths inside a willow coppice — Salix viminalis and Salix dasyclados — were carried out at Tartu Observatory, Tõravere, Estonia, in 1997. A new instrument, the sunfleck indicator, constructed by M. Sulev, was used. This instrument, moving perpendicularly to rows in the horizontal direction, counts the number an...
متن کاملCan we use short rotation coppice poplar for sugar based biorefinery feedstock? Bioconversion of 2-year-old poplar grown as short rotation coppice
BACKGROUND Feedstock cost is a substantial barrier to the commercialization of lignocellulosic biorefineries. Poplar grown using a short rotation coppice (SRC) system has the potential to provide a low-cost feedstock and economically viable sugar yields for fuels and chemicals production. In the coppice management regime, poplars are harvested after 2 years' growth to develop the root system an...
متن کاملEvaluating ecosystem processes in willow short rotation coppice bioenergy plantations
Despite a growing body of research linking bioenergy cultivation to changing patterns of biodiversity, there has been remarkably little interest in how bioenergy plantations affect key ecosystem processes underpinning important ecosystem services. In this study, we compare how the processes of predation by ground arthropods and litter decomposition varied between Short Rotation Coppice (SRC) wi...
