Fire effects on aquatic ecosystems: an assessment of the current state of the science (2015, background): “…structures (e.g., debris dams) to intercept postfire sediment and debris, applications that stabilize hillslopes (e.g., hydromulch, reseeding), and pre- and postfire vegetation removal (e.g., via prescribed burns, mechanical removal, salvage logging) (Karr et al. 2004, Reeves et al. 2006).”
Contemporary forest restoration: A review emphasizing function (2014, background): “…often must address further site degradation that may be caused by logging resulting from attempts to salvage financial value from damaged timber (Lupold, 1996; Prestemon et al., 2006), despite its controversial nature (Karr et al., 2004; Lindenmayer and Noss, 2006; Schmiegelow et al., 2006).”
THE EFFECTS OF POSTFIRE SALVAGE LOGGING ON CAVITY-NESTING BIRDS (2006, result): “…needed, the findings that have already emerged from this and from other studies (McIver and Starr 2000, Kotliar et al. 2002, Beschta et al. 2004, Karr et al. 2004) are entirely consistent, and they suggest that it may be difficult to retain the ecological integrity of a burned forest in the…”
