Därför är forskarna oense om skogsbrukets klimatpåverkan Minskad avverkning ger större klimatnytta än ett intensifierat skogsbruk, visar ny studie.

Du kan läsa här vad samma forskare säger (tillsammans med andra) om forskningen får tala www.umu.se/nyheter/darf...

Hur som helst, om Peter Holmgren har seriös kritik att ge så ska han publicera en ”comment” i tidskriften Science, för det är så kritik ges för att driva forskningen framåt.

Om det finns forskning inom industrin som är relevant (och bra) måste det ju finnas publikationer på den forskningen. Utan det går det inte att föra en sansad diskussion.

Du menar skogsindustrilobbyisten Peter Holmgren, eller har du några nyligen publicerade, fackgranskade artiklar från honom som är relevanta i ämnet?

Den publicerades i tidskriften Science i torsdags.

Setting up for some exciting laboratory experiments 😀 #ecology #streams #doc #fungi

A ‘shocking’ carbon discovery in Sweden’s forests A new study finds old-growth forests in Sweden store far more carbon than the industrial tree plantations that are rapidly replacing them, with soil accounting for most of the difference. Protecting u...

Biased publishing from the tropics www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Det har kommit en del redan, bl a från B-G Jonsson.

Dåligt medium att förmedla mina tankar. Dessutom har jag väldigt ont om tid nu så här vid terminsstart.

Global covariation of forest age transitions with the net carbon balance - Nature Ecology & Evolution A global analysis reveals regional trends of net forest ageing but also that widespread stand-replacing disturbances, such as fire and harvest, are driving declining forest age in many areas, often ac...

Important study showing that the conversion of old-growth to young forest results in significant carbon losses www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Come work with us! 2-year postdoc position open at SLU Aqua, on the role of herring in coastal food webs of the Baltic Sea. Applications due August 25.

Field work on the islands close to Arjeplog, northern Sweden, can sometimes be quite magical 😍

Global evidence for a positive relationship between tree species richness and ecosystem photosynthesis - Nature Plants Forests with higher tree species richness show greater photosynthesis by capturing more sunlight, highlighting the essential role of biodiversity in enhancing carbon uptake and supporting the global c...

A very nice study, showing that forests with more tree species capture more sunlight and show higher levels of photosynthesis! And this pattern is global.

Very interesting study! Slow-growing trees are best for C storage www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Not quite.

Actually, not at all similar, as the new study follows how specific plots develop over time, not how the average plot develops (in terms of C storage).

Decadal decline in forest floor soil organic carbon after clear-cutting in Nordic and Canadian forests Nordic and Canadian forests store substantial amounts of carbon (C) and are largely managed in a silvicultural system with clear-cut harvest. Previous…
