Does a minimal intervention approach threaten the biodiversity of protected areas? A multi-taxa short-term response to intervention in temperate oak-dominated forests (2015, background): “In commercial forests, the maintenance of high canopy closure is economically justifiable, although even in these forests some forms of management may result in short-term canopy openings (e.g. selection cutting, thinning) (Pawson et al., 2013; Verschuyl et al., 2011).”
How Sensitive Are Ecosystem Services in European Forest Landscapes to Silvicultural Treatment (2015, result): “The latter finding agrees well with a recent meta-analysis [32], while the former disagrees with it.”
