Deadwood volume assessment in Calabrian pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) peri-urban forests: Comparison between two sampling methods

摘要: ABSTRACTIn the Sustainable Forest Management, deadwood is a fundamental substrate for numerous species, and key factor in carbon nutrient cycles. The main aim of paper to estimate amount two Calabrian pine forests (Monte Morello Italy; Xanthi Greece) characterized by different stand conditions management practices. second compare sampling methods volume lying deadwood: fixed-area (FAS) method line intersect (LIS) method. results show that Monte peri-urban forest high quantity (75.1 m3 ha−1) divided 80% deadwood, 18% standing dead trees, 2% stumps. total 9.21 m3 ha−1 34% trees 48% mean estimated using FAS 59.91 m3 ha−1, while usin...
