Insect community composition and trophic guild structure in decaying logs from eastern Canadian pine-dominated forests (2006, background): “Many insect communities are consequently impoverished in areas where dead wood is scarce (Økland, 1994; Siitonen, 1994; Siitonen and Martikainen, 1994; Martikainen et al., 1996, 2000; Økland et al., 1996), although this is not universally the case (As, 1993; Sverdrup-Thygeson and Ims, 2002).”
Horizontal and vertical distribution of saproxylic beetles (Col., Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, Scolytinae) across sections of forest edges (2007, background): “…et al. 2000; Similä et al. 2002; Wermelinger et al. 2002; Similä et al. 2003), disturbances (Wermelinger et al. 2002; Moretti and Barbalat 2004) and various levels, qualities and connectivity of dead wood (Martikainen et al. 2000; Schiegg 2000a,b; Similä et al. 2003; Kappes and Topp 2004).”
Co-variation and indicators of species diversity: Can richness of forest-dwelling species be predicted in northern boreal forests? (2006, methodology): “…already observed that many decaying wood features are reflected in the richness of species dependent on dead wood (saproxylic species; Speight, 1989) and composition of species assemblages (e.g. Bader et al., 1995; Økland et al., 1996; Martikainen et al., 2000; Similä et al., 2003; Ranius, 2002).”
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): “Numerous studies compared the biodiversity of unmanaged (minimal intervention approach) and commercially managed forests concluding that minimal intervention favours biodiversity (Lassauce et al., 2013; Martikainen et al., 2000; Paillet et al., 2010).”
A comparison of three methods to survey saproxylic beetles in hollow oaks (2002, methodology): “Different kinds of window traps have been used in several studies on saproxylic beetles (e.g. Hammond 1997; Jansson and Lundberg 2000; Jonsell and Nordlander 1995; Kaila 1993; Martikainen et al. 2000; Økland 1996; Ranius and Jansson 2000).”
Habitat preferences of oak-feeding xylophagous beetles in a temperate woodland: implications for forest history and management (2009, background): “Further, it explains a high diversity of specialised ‘‘edge species’’ in European biota (e.g., Magura 2002 ).”
Saproxylic beetle diversity in a managed boreal forest: importance of stand characteristics and forestry conservation measures (2007, background): “For example, saproxylic beetle species richness of old growth forests was significantly higher than that in old managed areas in one Finnish study (Martikainen et al., 2000), but not in others (Similä et al., 2002b, 2003).”
Consequences of More Intensive Forestry for the Sustainable Management of Forest Soils and Waters (2011, background): “With the introduction of whole-tree and full-tree harvesting, greater attention has been devoted to understanding the effects of felling operations on forest soils, including effects on biodiversity [50], and the potential for long-term sustainability of tree production owing to increased nutrient l”
Mimicking natural disturbances of boreal forests: the effects of controlled burning and creating dead wood on beetle diversity (2007, background): “The volume and quality of dead wood is considered a major factor affecting the species richness of saproxylic beetles in boreal forests (Martikainen et al. 2000; Siitonen 2001; Grove 2002).”
