Suitability of close-to-nature silviculture for adapting temperate European forests to climate change (2014, background): “As a result, these trees may have less opportunity to produce offspring than trees harvested at a later stage (Konnert and Spiecker, 1996; Finkeldey and Ziehe, 2004).”
The impact of even‐aged and uneven‐aged forest management on regional biodiversity of multiple taxa in European beech forests (2018, background): “In Germany, shelterwood cutting has, since the late 1980s, gradually been replaced by target diameter cuttings (Finkeldey & Ziehe, 2004).”
Anthropogenic alterations of genetic diversity within tree populations: Implications for forest ecosystem resilience (2008, background): “Furthermore, intensive or selective silvicultural harvesting can reduce population densities or population sizes, thereby reducing gene exchange, increasing inbreeding, and potentially elevating the possibility of genetic drift (Finkeldey and Ziehe, 2004).”
Genetic effects of forest management practices: Global synthesis and perspectives (2014, background): “…is based on a phenotypic assessment of the trees in a stand, changes at a genetic level are expected when quantitative (e.g., height or diameter growth) and qualitative (e.g., stem form) traits used for selecting trees are at least partially under genetic control (Finkeldey and Ziehe, 2004).”
