• INITIAL RESPONSES OF FOREST UNDERSTORIES TO VARYING LEVELS AND PATTERNS OF GREEN-TREE RETENTION (2005, background): “…level of retention or conversely, intensity of overstory removal or thinning, are important in shaping understory responses to harvest in both mature and young forests (e.g., Klinka et al. 1996, Thomas et al. 1999, Bergstedt and Milberg 2001, Thysell and Carey 2001, VanhaMajamaa and Jalonen 2001).”
• Restoration treatment effects on the understory of ponderosa pine/Douglas-fir forests in western Montana, USA (2006, background): “Many exotic species are relatively short-lived and are likely to be out-competed as resources gradually become more limiting, favoring more resource efficient native species as in Antos et al. (1983) and Thysell and Carey (2001).”
• Understory vegetation in young Douglas-fir forests: does thinning help restore old-growth composition? (2004, background): “In stands with little initial understory cover, Thysell and Carey (2001) found a 7% increase in herb cover associated with two rounds of commercial thinning, 5 and 20 years earlier, with large increases by many exotic and release species and a doubling of cover of the low shrub Gaultheria shallon.”
• Impacts of restoration treatments on alien plant invasion in Pinus ponderosa forests, Montana, USA (2006, background): “Similar relationships have been documented following harvest in coastal Pacific north-west forests, USA (Thysell & Carey 2001) and southern Canadian boreal forests (Haeussler et al. 2002), and following prescribed burning in Australia (Milberg & Lamont 1995) and South America (Petryna et al. 2002).”
• Diversity and succession of adventive and indigenous vascular understorey plants in Pinus radiata plantation forests in New Zealand (2003, background): “Disturbance of forest vegetation by harvesting or thinning can cause an increase in richness or cover of exotic plant species (e.g., Bailey et al., 1998; Thysell and Carey, 2001).”
• Biocomplexity and restoration of biodiversity in temperate coniferous forest: inducing spatial heterogeneity with variable‐density thinning (2003, methodology): “before and 16 and 40 months after VDT (Carey et al. 1996; Thysell and Carey, 2000, 2001 ).”
• Biodiversity response to intensive biomass production from forest thinning in North American forests – A meta-analysis (2011, methodology): “Two-stage r multiple-entry overstory removal has been used to encourage nderstory development that simulates late seral forest characterstics at earlier ages (Thysell and Carey, 2001; Poage and Tappeiner, 002; Hagar et al., 2004).”
• Understory abundance, species diversity and functional attribute response to thinning in coniferous stands (2010, background): “, 2008; Lindh, 2008; Peterson and Anderson, 2009; Davis and Puettmann, 2009), chronosequence approaches (Puettmann and Berger, 2006), and retrospective studies on stands thinned more than 10 years ago (Bailey et al., 1998; Thysell and Carey, 2001; Lindh and Muir, 2004).”
