 ▼ Modeling efforts in the Lake States have produced numerous descriptive and predictive statistical models to assist forest management. However, several needs remain, including representation of (1) intensive forest management, (2) wildlife response to habitat change, and (3) projections of stand mortality for extended rotations. (1) We created a managed and intensively managed stand version of the Lake States variant of the Forest Vegetation Simulator (LS-FVS). This research concentrated on updating the large tree diameter growth model in LS-FVS using data from the Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) database. The final model form provides an important tool for describing individual tree level response to various management intensities in LS-FVS. (2) The Wildlife Habitat Indicator for Native Genera and Species (WHINGS) was derived from the Minnesota Generic Environmental Impact Statement and allows forest managers and policy analysts to examine the impacts of proposed management scenarios on forest wildlife habitat. This research recommended several updates to the current habitat suitability index methodology used in the model. A case study for St. Louis County, Minnesota demonstrated an application of the updated model to three 100 year harvest scheduling projections. Results illustrated that any sustainable change in forest habitat will benefit some species and diminish others.(3) This study modified and extended an existing yield curve for the red pine and aspen forest types to encompass the entire life of a forest stand (single cohort). The new model assumed that accumulated mortality eventually equals accumulated growth (i.e., stand mortality eventually reaches 100%). From among several proposed model forms, a symmetric curve based on an underlying basal area model proved superior. Forest managers and planners tasked with estimating yield (or yield loss) from diverse scenarios can now obtain realistic projections for stands beyond the age range of typical yield models.In addition, we compared several datasets from FIA for similar utility when developing empirical yield models and compared several basal area yield models and fitting methods for their applicability and stability over time. Finally, we evaluated the managed and intensively managed stand version of LS-FVS using independent growth observations from the most recently available FIA data.

 Мешовите шуме лишћара и четинара (букве и јеле; јеле, смрче и букве) заузимају 2,4% шумом обрасле површине Србије. Карактеришу их висока производност, еколошка разноврсност, повећана отпорност на различите негативне утицаје, те структурна сложеност. Мултифункционалност ових шума, с једне стране и мала површинска заступљеност, мања од потенцијалних станишних могућности у шумском фонду Србије, с друге стране, иницирали су ова истраживања у мешовитим шума јеле- смрче-букве на Тари и букве-јеле на Гочу. Примарни циљ истраживања био је да се у шумама ових локалитета анализирају структурне, динамичке и промене у димензионом диверзитету и саставу врста дрвећа, настале у последњих педесет година. Оцена узрока, стeпен и квалитет насталих промена представљаjу полазну основу за оквирно дефинисање даљег газдинског третмана ових полидоминантних заједница у контексту природи блиског и адаптивног газдовања. За ова истраживања коришћени су подаци са 15 стационарних огледних површина, од чега 6 на Тари, величине 1,0-1,85 ha и 9 на Гочу, величине 0,93-1,70 hа. Прикупљање података на огледним површинама вршено је на исти начин приликом сваког премера у периоду од 1955. до 2005. године на Тари, односно од 1954. до 2011. године на Гочу. Подаци периодичних, потпуних (тоталних) премера подвргнути су класичној дендрометријској и статистичкој обради. Оцена стања и анализa насталих промена у истраживаним састојинама током наведеног периода извршена је на основу следећих елемената: броја стабала, запремине, као и њихове дистрибуције по дебљинским степенима и класама дебљине Биолеја, темељнице, висинске структуре, висинске криве, текућег запреминског прираста, димензија средњих стабала, запреминског индекса, Џини коефицијента, индекса стопе урастања и учешћа врста у смеси...

 ▼ Landsat imagery has been used for the estimation of forest stand-level characteristics with various techniques. We reviewed peer-reviewed research that employed Landsat imagery for the purpose of estimating forest stand-level characteristics from 1995 to 2012. Particularly, we focused on the study areas, forest parameters examined and technologies of classification employed. We investigated the trends and changes in using Landsat imagery for the estimation of forest stand-level characteristics. In terms of forest stand-level characteristics that have been estimated, above ground biomass (AGB) was thoroughly researched, but forest stand height and crown closures were estimated less frequently. In techniques employed, various forms of regression analysis seem to be the most used method and k-nearest neighbor followed it, and the other techniques were not employed enough but increasingly used. Given the proven abilities of Landsat imagery for the estimation of forest structural characteristics, we estimated forest structure in the State of Georgia. We estimated premature forest areas where the age is 15 or under 15 using Landsat satellite imagery in southeastern Georgia. For the estimation of premature forest areas in Georgia, we employed three technologies: maximum likelihood classification (MLC), regression analysis, and k-nearest neighbor (kNN). In terms of overall accuracy, MLC and kNN produced relatively high-level accuracy. The kappa coefficient shows consistent results with overall accuracy. Additionally, to research the implicit value of sale characteristics on the change of stumpage price, we developed a regression model with various sale characteristics to have insight into the change of timber price. Based on Timber Mart-South data collected from 1998 to 2007 in 11 southern states, we adopted a hedonic pricing method for the association of stumpage price of pine sawtimber with timber sale characteristics. We found that the stumpage price of pine sawtimber is positively related to sale size, contract length, sealed bid offering, and the number of bidders. It is also found that the presence of above average or excellence in grade, market conditions, and logging conditions made huge positive impacts on the stumpage price of pine sawtimber.

Буква и састојине које она гради су широко заступљене, како у Европи, тако и у Србији, те самим тим буква представља најзначајнију врсту на овим просторима, било са економског, било са еколошког аспекта. Kао таква, ова врста је кључна за очување стабилности и биодиверзитета шумских екосистема широм Европе. Планирање газдовања, како шумама уопште, тако и буковим шумама, представља основно средство за обезбеђивање трајног задовољења свих човекових потреба у односу на шуму, а у исто време и за обезбеђивање стабилности шумских екосистема. Имајући у виду учешће букве у укупном шумском фонду Републике Србије, као и проблеме у буковим шумама и шумама уопште, долази се до закључка да би се стање шума у Србији у многоме поправило решавањем проблема газдовања буковим шумама. У прилог наведеном говори и чињеница је да је теоријски основ практичној изради планова оскудан. У исто време, када се данас говори о планирању, врло често се говори о њему као о систему. Основна одлика сваког система је постојање солидне теоријске основе. Имајући у виду све напред наведено, циљ овог рада је употпуњавање теоријског основа планирања газдовања буковим шумама у Србији, тако што би се у омеђеном простору, дефинисаном границама (једно шумско подручје), теоријски предпоставио модел планског приступа одрживом управљању и газдовању шумама. Истраживања за потребе ове докторске дисертације су спроведена у оквиру Тимочког шумског подручја, у шумама којима газдује ЈП „Србијашуме“ Београд. Ово шумско подручје је одабрано за реализацију истраживања првенствено због чињенице да се ради о типично буковом шумском подручју, у коме буква има врло широко распрострањење. Спроведено истраживање се састојало из неколико фаза, припремне фазе, фазе прикупљања и обраде података и завршне фазе...

 The growing need for information about carbon stocks and sequestration by forests has made forest biomass estimation a relevant issue, far more important in the case of fast growing and intensively managed species such as Eucalyptus globulus Labill.. Several methods have been used to estimate the existing biomass at stand level, but using data resulting from forest inventories is simpler and easily applicable. This thesis, starting from the work already developed for the Globulus 3.0 model, developed two systems of allometric equations for predicting total aboveground biomass and the different biomass components for Eucalyptus globulus Labill. guarantying the equality of the estimate of total aboveground biomass with the sum of the estimates for the different biomass components. The systems use as regressors just stand variables that are usually a result of forest inventories so that they can be easily applicable .

 ▼ To ensure that thinning is done properly and correct due to instruction, regularly manual monitoring of the stand is done by the harvester operator after thinning. The aim of this study is to investigate the reliability of a newly developed program, that is using harvester data to automaticly calculate stand variables after thinning. A manual forest inventory was carried out in ten differens stands i south west of Sweden, where basal area, stem density, volume and species mix were estimated and compared to the automatically calculated data. The results shows that volume and stem density were estimated with high precision while the systematic deviation for basal area was 10 %, which is a significant differens.

 ▼ Research report on the reliability of results of Lithuanian forest inventories is given in the thesis. Aim of research – to estimate the reliability of the results of National forest inventory, Stand-wise forest inventory and forest inventory before cutting. Object of research – spruce and birch stands of Lithuanian forests. Methods of research – sampling, verification of statistical hypotheses and comparison of averages. Results of research – the reliability analysis of the results of National forest inventory shows, that calculated differences are statistically inconsequential. The reliability analysis of the results of Stand-wise forest inventory shows, that Stand-wise forest inventory results has allowed errors, except the height. The estimation of the reliability of results of forest inventory before cutting demonstrates that the errors are too high and the inequality of total volume of stands is -11,1 %.

 Although boreal forest management typically results in an increased frequency of even-aged forest stands in managed landscapes, fire history research suggests that much of the natural forest mosaic is composed of stands characterised by multiple cohorts of trees. To aid in the development of multicohort management, I investigated stand structural characteristics and small mammal communities as a function of their tree cohort structures. I also tested key alternatives: stand age, productivity, and tree species composition, as correlates of structural variation and small mammal communities. Results reveal that in mixedwood and black spruce forests, three-dimensional structure of boreal forests is strongly correlated with small mammal community structure, and indicate that tree diameter distribution is a succinct descriptor of such structural variation, performing better than alternative stand characteristics. This represents a new approach to characterising habitat supply as a function of within-stand heterogeneity, contrasting with existing approaches that focus on among-stand characteristics.

 ▼ The Arctic is warming at an alarming rate, a phenomenon which has been causing more frequent and severe wildfires in boreal forests. The Cajander larch (Larix cajanderi) forests of Siberia are particularly important because they cover an immense area of carbon-rich permafrost, one of the largest terrestrial carbon sinks in the world. The fate of this belowground carbon is intimately tied to the structure of these larch forests, so we seek to understand how changes in fire regimes may affect factors that drive seedling establishment. The first objective was to examine how stand structure relates to stand level seed production. Full tree cone counts were conducted on 125 trees from 17 similar-aged stands across a tree density gradient. The second objective was to evaluate the importance of microsites that favor larch establishment (deemed “safe sites”), a concept that has been anecdotally recorded, but not rigorously studied in this ecosystem. We examined 15 Cajander larch stands in northeastern Siberia that had burned in the past 18 years. We analyzed the strength of seedling preference by comparing the percentage of seedlings that establish on safe sites to the percentage of the area that is occupied by safe sites.Results from objective 1 showed that medium and low density stands produce the most seeds per hectare. This pattern seems to reflect a release from competitive stress that limits cone production in the higher density stands (>10,000 trees per hectare), while also showing that stands with very low tree density (<500 trees per hectare) face diminishing returns of competition release as resources may be underutilized. This information may help predict future ecosystem structure because seed availability is likely the most important driver of forest regeneration post-fire. The results for objective 2 indicated that safe sites were indeed preferentially colonized by larch seedlings. The preference for safe sites was also much more variable in lowland/floodplain sites, which may be due to the differences in types of safe sites that are predominant in lowland versus upland sites. By synthesizing these results regarding seed production and seedling establishment, we can better predict the success of reforestation after wildfires which influence the future of climate feedback loops.

 ▼ During the last fifteen years, laser scanning has emerged as a data source for forest inventory. Airborne laser scanning (ALS) provides 3D data, which may be used in an automated analysis chain to estimate vegetation properties for large areas. Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) data are highly accurate 3D ground-based measurements, which may be used for detailed 3D modeling of vegetation elements. The objective of this thesis is to further develop methods to estimate forest information from laser scanning data. The aims are to estimate lists of individual trees from ALS data with accuracy comparable to area-based methods, to collect detailed field reference data using TLS, and to estimate canopy structure from ALS data. The studies were carried out in boreal and hemi-boreal forests in Sweden. Tree crowns were delineated in three dimensions with a model-based clustering approach. The model-based clustering identified more trees than delineation of a surface model, especially for small trees below the dominant tree layer. However, it also resulted in more erroneously delineated tree crowns. Individual trees were estimated with statistical methods from ALS data based on field-measured trees to obtain unbiased results at area level. The accuracy of the estimates was similar for delineation of a surface model (stem density root mean square error or RMSE 32.0%, bias 1.9%; stem volume RMSE 29.7%, bias 3.8%) as for model-based clustering (stem density RMSE 33.3%, bias 1.1%; stem volume RMSE 22.0%, bias 2.5%). Tree positions and stem diameters were estimated from TLS data with an automated method. Stem attributes were then estimated from ALS data trained with trees found from TLS data. The accuracy (diameter at breast height or DBH RMSE 15.4%; stem volume RMSE 34.0%) was almost the same as when trees from a manual field inventory were used as training data (DBH RMSE 15.1%; stem volume RMSE 34.5%). Canopy structure was estimated from discrete return and waveform ALS data. New models were developed based on the Beer-Lambert law to relate canopy volume to the fraction of laser light reaching the ground. Waveform ALS data (canopy volume RMSE 27.6%) described canopy structure better than discrete return ALS data (canopy volume RMSE 36.5%). The methods may be used to estimate canopy structure for large areas.

 ▼ Assessment of vegetation over large, remote and inaccessible areas is an ongoing challenge for land managers in Australia and around the world. This research aimed to develop metrics, techniques and acquisition specifications that are suitable for characterising vegetation across large forested areas. New methods were therefore required to be transferable between forest types as well as robust where forest structure is unknown a priori. Remote sensing techniques were utilised as they have been previously identified as key in forest assessment, owing to their synoptic capture as well as relative cost. Additionally, active remote sensing instruments, such as LiDAR, are capable of sensing 3-dimensional canopy structure. Canopy height and the canopy height profile are fundamental descriptors of forest structure and can be used for estimating biomass, habitat suitability and fire susceptibility. To investigate the ability of remote sensing to characterise vegetation structure across large areas, three key research questions were formulated: I. Which metrics of canopy height and vertical canopy structure are suitable for application across forested landscapes? II. What is the appropriate ALS sampling frequency for attribution of forest structure across different forest types? III. How can plot level estimates of canopy structure be scaled to generate continuous large area maps? A number of inventory measured canopy height metrics were compared with LiDAR analogues, these were shown to be accurate at estimating canopy height and transferable between forest types. Existing techniques for attributing the canopy height profile were found to be inadequate when applied across heterogeneous forests. Therefore a new technique was developed that utilised a nonparametric regression of LiDAR derived gap probability that identified major canopy features e.g. dominant canopy strata and shade tolerant layers beneath. The impact of sampling frequency was assessed using three key descriptors of canopy structure at six sites across Australia covering a range of forest types. The research concluded that forest structure can be adequately characterised with a pulse density of 0.5 pulses m-2 when compared to a higher density acquisition - 10 pulses m-2. At pulse density of <0.5 pulses m-2, the inability to generate an adequate ground surface model lead to poor results, particularly in high biomass forest. The outcomes of this research will allow land managers to specify lower pulse densities when commissioning LiDAR capture, which may result in significant cost savings. Finally, LiDAR derived plot estimates were scaled to an area of 2.9 million hectares of forest, where forest type ranged from short, open woodland to tall, closed canopy rainforest. Attribution was achieved using a two-stage sampling approach utilising the ensemble regression technique Random Forest. Predictor variables included freely available datasets such as Landsat TM and MODIS satellite imagery. Canopy height was estimated with a RMSE of 30% or ~5.5 m...

 ▼ There are considerable expenditures by government and private forest industry to enhance the growth of forests and reduce time required for crop rotation. The effectiveness of some of these treatments is dependent on site productivity. In addition, as responsible stewards of the forest resource and habitat, it is important that the state of forests are actively monitored, especially in the face of a changing climate and increased rates of disturbance. This dissertation reports on the development of a method for estimating and mapping forest productivity. The Shawnigan Lake thinning and fertilization forest installation, established in 1971 by CFS, was selected as the study site largely for its rich mensuration history. Square treatment plots were 0.04ha in area and included two thinning levels (1/3 & 2/3 of the basal area), two fertilization treatments (224kg & 448kg N/ha) with repeated fertilizations and macronutrient experiments (S, P) and control plots. A sample of plots was selected for high precision ground based lidar reference surveys. In September of 2012 a multi-sensor airborne survey of SLP was conducted that collected high-density lidar (up to ~70pnts/m2) and VNIR imaging spectroscopy. A thorough empirical radiometric calibration was conducted in addition to a spatial calibration at the Victoria International Airport. A combination of area based height percentile, point density ratios and statistical moments with individual lidar tree metrics including height distribution and proximity metrics were generated. Topographic metrics were also generated from the lidar ground classified point cloud. A library of spectral indices was computed from the imaging spectrometer data, with an emphasis on those indices known to be associated with vegetation health. These metrics were summarized to the plot level for a coarse scale regression analysis. A control survey and ground based lidar was used to facilitate an individual tree based fine scale of analysis, where reference data could unambiguously be matched to airborne collected data through the projected positions. Regression analysis was conducted applying the best subset regression with exhaustive feature selection search criteria and included a critical evaluation of the resulting selected features. Models were investigated considering the data source and in combination, that is, lidar metrics were considered independent of spectroscopy as well as the converse, and lidar metrics in combination with spectral metrics. The contribution of this study is the revelation that existing area based point cloud metrics are highly correlated, potentially noisy and sensitive to variations in point density, resulting in unstable feature selection and coefficients in model building. The approach offered as an alternative is the gridded lidar treetops method, which is evidently lacking within the literature and which this study overwhelmingly advocates. Additionally, the breadth and diversity of metrics assessed, the size and quality of the reference data applied,... Advisors/Committee Members: Niemann, K. O. (supervisor).

 ▼ This paper looks at different datasets obtained from a recent Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) system acquisition and compares the reliability of two contemporary analysis approaches. Estimates of different tree variables, such as tree height, that were derived using regression analysis and a segmentation approach on data obtained via a small-footprint laser scan are contrasted with the field data for forest stand parameters, specifically volume and basal area. Plots of 2500 m2 containing plantations of Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis Bong. Carr.) were scanned with two different point densities in years 2003 and 2004. These plots are divided into training and test regions of 625 m2 each. Regression analysis is performed using percentiles corresponding to the tree height at different vertical heights and the segmentation method is used to delineate individual tree crowns where tree metrics can be determined. Two commonly studied stand parameters are estimated with both of the above approaches and are then compared to the field data. The bias of the estimated values for the stand volume and basal area ranges from 1.21 to 6.49 m3ha-1 and - 2.69 to 1.23 m2ha-1, respectively; and the bias calculated from the segmentation ranges between - 434.76 to - 349.77 m3ha-1 for the stand volume and - 33.36 to - 42.24 m2ha-1 for the basal area. The achieved results show that the regression models estimated stand volume and basal more accurately compared with values calculated from the segmentation. Furthermore, it is shown that there was no significant difference in the estimates from the regression model when using different point densities. Advisors/Committee Members: Patenaude, Genevieve.

 ▼ The repeatability of stand measurements derived from LiDAR data was tested in east-central Mississippi. Data collected from LiDAR missions and from ground plots were analyzed to estimate stand parameters. Two independent LiDAR missions were flown in approximate orthogonal directions. Field plots were generated where the missions overlapped, and tree data were taken in these plots. LiDAR data found 86-100% of mature pine trees, 64-81% of immature pine trees, and 63-72% of mature hardwood trees. Immature and mature pine tree heights measured from LiDAR were found to be significantly different (α= 0.05) than field measured heights. Individual tree volumes and plot volume for mature pines were precisely predicted in both flight directions. The results of this study showed that LiDAR repeatability in mature pines can be accurately achieved. But immature pine and hardwood plots were unable to match the repeatability of the mature pine plots. Advisors/Committee Members: David L. Evans (chair), Robert C. Parker (committee member), Emily B.

 ▼ QuickBird satellite data was used to examine stem density, basal area, and crown density, as potential forest strata to aid in volume estimations for a regional inventory program. The classes used for analysis were pine pole and sawtimber, and hardwood pole and sawtimber. Total height, height to live crown, diameter at breast height (dbh), and crown class were measured on 129 field plots used in image classification and accuracy assessments. Supervised classification produced overall accuracy of 85% with a Kappa of 0.8065. The classification was used for the extraction of mean band data and percent of forested pixels. Satellite derived variables were used with field measurements such as average basal area and stem density for regression analysis to predict forest characteristics such as stem density and crown closure that are indicators of volume variability. The R2 values ranged from 0.0005 to 0.2815 for hardwoods and 0.0001 to 0.6174 for pines. <p/> Advisors/Committee Members: David L Evans (chair), Emily B.

 ▼ The Tennessee Division of Forestry (TDF) implemented a Continuous Forest Inventory (CFI) system in 2009 for the 15 state forests, encompassing multiple physiographic land types and forest types. The initial design contained plans to measure the plots on five-year intervals. The objectives of the CFI system include: determining the growth by species and forest types for all state forest land, estimating growth models for individual trees in mixed hardwood stands, developing a harvest schedule, and assessing the impact of different silvicultural treatments over time. Following the implementation, the University of Tennessee Department of Forestry, Wildlife and Fisheries was asked to assess the study. The objectives for this assessment were to: assess the data quality of the initial plot measurements and identify inconsistencies; determine the usefulness of the Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) in producing accurate estimates of current volume per acre (VPA); and evaluate the current inventory design. In order to produce future growth estimates, an accurate estimate of the current inventory is needed. Known relationships in forestry were used to establish metrics for assessing the quality of the plot measurements. Two estimates of volume were used in this study: Lasher’s equation contained in FVS and the d2H (diameter and height) equation used by FIA. The FVS equation consistently over estimated volume at the acre level and individual tree level. The overall design was determined to be inadequate for providing information by forest type within each state forest. This can be remedied by utilizing stratified samples by delineating each forest by its forest type. The results of this investigation will provide a starting point for improving the work already conducted by the Division in regards to quantifying the current inventory of the Tennessee State Forest system.

 Virgin forests comprise remnants of valuable and rare forest ecosystems which serve as a knowledge base in order to understand ecosystem functions which are determined by environmental factors. The structural patterns and dynamics of the old-growth beech (Fagus sylvatica) - silver fir (Abies alba) – spruce (Picea Abies) forest in Central Rhodope (Greece) were assessed in order to identify the stand types present in the forest and to examine whether the forest ecosystem exhibits structural characteristics that are typical of virgin forests. At each sample plot covering 0,25 ha, all living and dead trees with diameter at breast height greater than 5 cm were measured, as well as lying dead wood with diameter at the nearest point greater than 10 cm. Regeneration was assessed on four sub-plots per plot.The area proportion of different forest development stages was determined and Gini index was calculated in order to illustrate the structural complexity. Furthermore living and dead wood volumes were determined. Eight stand types occurred in the area according to the species composition, based on basal area G (m2/Ha). Beech is the dominant species especially in the small and intermediate diameter classes, while the conifers occur mainly in the dominant layer. The diameter distribution was best described as a rotated sigmoid, which is typical of primary forests. Presence of almost all developmental stages was observed as well as small scale alternation, while more than half of forest area comprised the plenter and terminal stage. Gini index is indicative of the structural heterogeneity of the stands. Beech is dominating in the regeneration layer with the regeneration density of fir being lower than of beech, although browsing by ungulates was negligible. A high amount of deadwood was observed in several decay stages. In contrast to their share among living trees, conifers contributed more than two-thirds to the deadwood volume. We conclude that the old-growth beech-silver fir-spruce forest Frakto shows structural attributes which are typical of virgin forests, such as structural complexity and high stability and it is characterized by a disturbance regime dominated by small-scale events.

 ▼ Most boreal forests in North Europe are intensively managed, and the forest landscape is far from its natural stage leading to hundreds of species being threatened in Sweden alone. Reserves are established to protect biodiversity, but since the resources available for conservation do not cover all species in need of protection, effective prioritization is essential. In this thesis, a reserve selection model based on a goal programming approach was developed, finding the optimal age composition of reserves in boreal Sweden under different prerequisites. Forest data were derived from the Swedish National Forest Inventory (NFI) and the amount of structural indicators (proxy for biodiversity) registered in the NFI were maximized while simultaneously reassuring that all indicators were represented. I wanted to investigate how reserve selection could be made more effective by considering: (1) cost, (2) subjective preferences, and (3) future biodiversity potential, where the development over time was simulated using the forest analysis and planning tool Heureka PlanWise. To evaluate species response to retained structures in young managed forest, lichen species richness on retained aspen trees was surveyed. Results show that young forest is a cost-effective alternative. The proportion of young forest varied from 46% when subjective preferences were considered, to 76% when only the future values were considered. The cost-effective models were contrasted with area-effective models to show the pros and cons with such approaches. The area-constrained models often selected a more or less large proportion of old forest (77% when subjective preferences were considered, but 13% when only future values were considered), and were more expensive but covered less area to reach the same biodiversity value. In the aspen study higher lichen species richness was found on the retained trees that had been exposed for a longer time, including easily dispersed species and species often found in old forest. Scientists alone cannot find the optimal reserve network, since it depends on the goals that are set by society and how success is valued. Decision makers have to integrate societal, ecological and economic data and balance short term and long term constraints in terms of cost and available area in order to design cost-effective conservation strategies.

 ▼ In Sweden, forest stands younger than 15 years constitute more than 10% of the total forest area. The aims of the research described in this thesis were to investigate how bees and wasps (Aculeata) use young boreal forests as nesting and feeding grounds. Aculeates are sun-loving creatures and do not thrive in closed forest stands. Life history traits of nest-provisioning bees and wasps are characterized by low fecundity and extensive parental care. Their lifestyle differs from most other insects and they exhibit many similarities with breeding songbirds. The offspring are produced in sheltered nests that are stocked with food. Bees collect nectar and pollen and wasps collect insects and spiders. Most of this thesis is about solitary wood-dwelling aculeates that nest in holes made by other wood-boring insects. About 5800 potential nesting holes in deadwood were surveyed and the insect species or genera that had made the hole identified. Less than 2% of these holes were occupied by any bee or wasp. The reason for the low occupancy was probably that the egg-laying females are demanding in their nest choice and rejected many “inferior” holes that would not protect their offspring. Standing deadwood objects had higher occupancy than stumps and tops from harvested trees. Among two bee species, the nest abundance of a pollen-specialist species was predicted only by this species’ specific pollen resource, whereas the nest abundance of a pollen-generalist species was predicted by both pollen (mainly flowers along roadsides) and nesting resources. Tree species, sun exposure and the colonization history of beetles and fungi all contribute to the species assemblage of wood-dwelling aculeates in high stumps. These factors may interact in complex ways. Some exposure to sun seems to be a common requirement for aculeates irrespective of which tree species that were used as nest substrate. The relationship between tree species and aculeate species assemblage seems to be highly dependent on prior colonization history. Bumblebees were more abundant along edges between young and older forest stands than in the middle of the young forest stands. The reason for this is probably associated with the fact that edges represent favorable nesting and mate-finding sites. Based on results in this thesis, it is concluded that young boreal forest stands are important habitats for bees and wasps. Retention and creation of standing deadwood at final fellings is recommended and special care should be taken along forest roadsides to preserve the flora.

 ▼ Tree crown characteristics are important determinants of forest stand features such as their potential to sustain canopy fire. There are characteristic differences between crowns of shade tolerant and shade intolerant conifer species: shade tolerant conifers generally have longer, fuller crowns than intolerant species. In this work, I investigated the response of vertical foliage distribution to stand density for a suite of western U.S. conifer species of varying shade tolerance and interpreted results in terms of canopy fire hazard evaluation. In addition, I evaluated whether diameter-based foliage area allometries differ between geographic areas in the interior western U.S. in order to gain insight into the extent that local allometries can be applied outside their area of origination. I found shade tolerant tree species maintained a greater proportion of their foliage in low light environments than intolerant species. This was consistent with lesser sensitivity of crown ratio to increasing stand density for tolerant compared to intolerant conifers. Regardless of species shade tolerance or stand density, the center of foliage mass within crowns was nearly always above the crown midpoint. Foliage mass was shifted upward and concentrated in closed-canopy forest stands compared to open-canopy woodland stands, which is consistent with greater light competition in closed-canopy stands. Foliage area allometries differed between geographic areas, and differences were species-specific. Using realistic depictions of the vertical distribution of crown fuels in a canopy fire hazard evaluation procedure resulted in dramatic increases in estimated canopy bulk density for stands, with associated increases in estimated potential fire behavior.

 Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli muodostaa perusta taloudellisesti optimaalisille hakkuuketjuille männylle, kuuselle ja rauduskoivulle Virossa. Lisäksi tuloksia vertailtiin boreaalisista metsistä aiemmin saatuihin tuloksiin sekä pyrittiin tarjoamaan metsänhoidollisia suosituksia käytännön toimijoille. Tutkimuksen teoreettinen viitekehys perustuu Faustmannin (1849) kiertoaikamalliin. Tutkimus tehtiin hyödyntäen virolaisia metsikkötason kasvumalleja ja paikallisia puunhintoja sekä metsänhoitokustannuksia. Optimointi perustui Hooken ja Jeevesin (1961) kehittämään suoraoptimointimetodiin. Männyn havaittiiin olevan taloudellisesti optimaalisin laji suurimmalla osalla kasvupaikoista, rauduskoivun ollessa optimaalisin valinta rehevimmälle kasvupaikalle. Rauduskoivun hakkuuketjujen havaittiin olevan havupuita vähemmän herkkä korkokannan, kasvupaikan ja puunhintojen vaihteluille. Nykyiset metsälain rajoitukset päätehakkuussa pidentävät kiertoaikoja, lisäävät harvennusten lukumäärää ja aiheuttavat taloudellisia tappioita verrattuna rajoittamattomaan optimiin. Mikäli lakirajoja noudatetaan, yleisin optimaalinen harvennusten lukumäärä kaikille puulajeille oli kolme. Optimaaliset kiertoajat olivat yleisesti lyhyempiä ja ensiharvennuksen ajankohta aiemmin useassa tapauksessa aiemmin kuin Suomessa. Optimaalisten harvennusten lukumäärän havaittin myös olevan vähemmän herkkä puulajien, kasvupaikkojen ja korkokantojen vaihteiluille verrattuna Suomeen. Lisäksi havaittiin, että mikäli pääpuulajien runkoluku alittaa tietyn kynnyksen taimikkoiäin ohittaneissa vähempiarvoisia lehtipuita sisältävissä sekametsiköissä, metsikkö kannattaa päätehakata viipymättä ja uudistaa pääpuulajille suositusten mukaan. Johtuen nykyisistä metsälain asettamista rajoitteista metsätalouden harjoittajien parhaimmat mahdollisuudet taloudellisen lisäarvon luomiselle ovat metsänuudistamisen ja harvennushakkuuketjujen optimoinnissa. Aiempien suomalaisia metsiköitä koskevien tulosten ja metsänhoitosuositusten sekä tämän tutkimuksen tulosten välillä on useita yhteneväisyyksiä. Näin ollen suomalaisten tutkimusten tulokset tarjoavat hyvän lähtökohdan ohjeistukseksi käytännön toimijoille Virossa. Ottaen kuitenkin huomioon myös havaitut eroavaisuudet näiden kahden maan metsiköitä koskevien tulosten välillä, optimaalisia hakkuuketjuja tulisi kehittää Virossa yksityiskohtaisemmin kattavien metsänhoitosuositusten laatimiseksi.
 This study aimed at conducting a baseline for optimal harvesting schedules with economic criteria for Scots pine, Norway spruce and silver birch in Estonia. Additionally, this study aimed at providing comparison to previous findings about optimal schedules in boreal forests and recommendation for practitioners. Faustmann’s (1849) forest rotation theory provides the theoretical foundation for the thesis. The study was performed by including Estonian whole-stand forest growth models and local timber prices and forest regeneration costs in the optimization, which was based on the Hooke and Jeeves’ (1961) direct optimization method.

Although not a new concept, with applications in several parts of the world, it has evolved according to the needs of society. In order to maximize this challenge it was necessary to adopt a system of cuts and natural regeneration, which maintained a continuous cover, based on the structure irregularity, with 2 to 4 cohorts. This is a holistic, multi-functional integrated approach, using control methods by biological automation that contributes to biodiversity. It uses a system of free choice of cuts, justified by interactions from the ground to the treetops. Its application was made with the simulator SUBERv5.0, estimating growth and yield for 2 production cycles of 120 years. Advisors/Committee Members: Gonçalves, Ana Cristina Andrade.
