The consequences of silviculture and management on the genetic variation and structure of long-impacted populations of forest tree are reviewed assessed and discussed, using Mediterranean forests as a working paradigm. The review focuses on silviculture and management systems, regeneration schemes, ...

Mediterranean forests are important sources of income for society and represent biodiversity hotspots, characterized by a mosaic of forest structures, from short-rotation even-aged stands to old-growth forests. However, such increased complexity requires forest management to balance timber...

Vocational education has been changing with the times. We worked on restructuring educational contents about management of the subject "Forest management" in vocational high schools in line with revised Education Ministry Guidelines (2017). Based on analysis of previous educational reforms and...

This paper presents results of a study on the stand structure and some stocking control approaches of uneven-aged coniferous stands. The even-aged forest management prevails in silvicultural practices in Bulgarian forestry. Uneven-aged silviculture started in the early 1930s when the Biolley...

In sustainable forestry, forests should produce multiple ecosystem services for society, such as timber, carbon sequestration and biodiversity. Therefore, in the evaluation of forest management strategies, we have to consider the impacts of management on several ecosystem services. In this study,...
