Effects of forest conservation and management on volume growth, harvested amount of timber, carbon stock, and amount of deadwood in Finnish boreal forests under changing climate

摘要: We employed a forest ecosystem model (SIMA) to study how the changes in conservation area and management affect volume growth, harvested amount of timber, carbon stock, deadwood Finnish boreal upland forests under current changing climates (RCP4.5 RCP8.5) over 2010–2099. Simulations were carried out on National Forest Inventory plots using three different scenarios (baseline 10% 20% increases area) thinning regimes maintenance ±20% stocking compared with recommendations). An increase increased quantity forests, as did higher thinning. Maintenance lower increased, general, but it could not compensate for decrease timber due area. Climate warming greatly all ...
