Effects of forest management on ground-dwelling beetles (Coleoptera; Carabidae, Staphylinidae) in Central Europe are mainly mediated by changes in forest structure (2014, neutral): “These even-aged forests are low in structural diversity and thus, exhibit a lack of important resources for many species such as old trees, early phases of natural succession and, above all, large-sized dead trees and their continuous availability in forests (Bauhus et al., 2009; Meyer and Schmidt, ”
Retention Forestry to Maintain Multifunctional Forests: A World Perspective (2012, background): “The retention approach is equally applicable to uneven- or even-age silvicultural systems or to high or low rates of wood extraction (Bauhus et al. 2009); that is, the importance of the continuity of biological legacies over forest generations has universal generality.”
Canopy effects on vegetation caused by harvesting and regeneration treatments (2010, background): “These research activities are concerned about features of ‘‘old-growthness’’ (sensu Bauhus et al. 2009) or habitat continuity and often point to the fact that forest management may affect important ecological functions of forests, during harvest operations in particular.”
Conservation value of forests attacked by bark beetles: Highest number of indicator species is found in early successional stages (2013, background): “…protection of naturally disturbed orests from reactive salvage logging, is being advocated in western orth America and Australia as well as Europe (Bauhus et al., 2009; urton, 2010; Lindenmayer et al., 2008). mplications for management The Bavarian Forest National Park experienced a large-scale…”
Which factors influence the occurrence and density of tree microhabitats in Mediterranean oak forests (2013, methodology): “Thus, current silvicultural practices could favor harvesting and stand selection procedures that maintain some older stands since last cutting (Bauhus et al., 2009; Lassauce et al., 2012) with the aim of the global conservation of biodiversity.”
Competition and tree crowns: a neighborhood analysis of three boreal tree species. (2010, background): “…to monocultural, even-aged forestry practices generally involve management of mixed species and/or multiple tree cohorts (e.g., Harvey et al., 2002; Bauhus et al., 2009; Kuuluvainen, 2009) and encompass a nearly infinite number of possible variations of species, sizes and spatial arrangements of…”
“Primeval forest relict beetles” of Central Europe: a set of 168 umbrella species for the protection of primeval forest remnants (2018, background): “Based on various definitions of primeval forest (Johnson et al. 1995; Whitehead 1997; Hilbert and Wiensczyk 2007; Bauhus et al. 2009; Cateau et al. 2015) and considering the ecology of saproxylic beetles, we consider primeval forest habitat features as follows: high number of large and old trees and”
Biodiversity response to forest structure and management: Comparing species richness, conservation relevant species and functional diversity as metrics in forest conservation (2019, background): “elements, such as leaving retention trees and dead wood to support habitat specialists, in so-called “near-natural” forestry (Bauhus et al., 2009).”
Deadwood enrichment in European forests – Which tree species should be used to promote saproxylic beetle diversity? (2016, positive): “This holds particularly true if management has been very intensive (Bauhus et al., 2009; Lindenmayer et al., 2012).”
