Summary

In this project, we will assemble an empirical database on timber production, carbon (C) balance and biodiversity values across key CCF methods in the boreal region of Sweden with the aim to evaluate the consequences of alternative CCF methods for key forest ecosystem services including timber production, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity.

Project details

in WP1 we now aim for stands 1571, 1575, 1565, 1566, 1568 and 1569.

In Åheden we only measure the larger checkerboard site.

In Botsmark we measure the trials 8668 (unmanaged) and 6323 (gapfelling).
