Management recommendations for Alpine protection forests: the importance of regeneration quality and initial stand composition

2024-04-28

Abstract excerpt

The protection of infrastructure against gravitational natural hazards is one of the most important ecosystem services (ES) of mountain forests in Alpine countries. For a continuous provision of this ES, forests need to have a high protective effect, e.g., high canopy cover and/or stem numbers, while being resistant to and resilient after disturbances by being well-structured and stable, having a species compositi...
