• Modelling branch characteristics of Norway spruce from wide spacings in Germany (2007, background): “In many European countries, silviculture in Norway spruce stands are currently being changed to wider initial spacing and early intensive thinnings in order to shorten stand rotation and to increase the recovery of merchantable sized logs (e.g. Abetz et al., 1984; Kenk, 1988, 1990; Eriksson and Karl”
• Ecology of Species Living on Dead Wood - Lessons for Dead Wood Management (2005, background): “Such stands would have low volumes of dead wood to start with (Fridman and Walheim 2000), and commercial thinning would have lowered their natural mortality (Mäkinen and Isomäki 2004a, 2004b).”
• Effect of wide spacing on increment and branch properties of young Norway spruce (2006, background): “In thinning experiments, removing up to 50% of the growing stock has not resulted in marked reductions in volume increment per hectare (Abetz 1976b; Eriksson and Karlsson 1997; Mäkinen and Isomäki 2004).”
