The conversion of Norway spruce stands into mixed-species forests is currently one of the most pressing challenges to ensure the stability of forest ecosystems in Central Europe. Recently, direct seeding as a method of artificial regeneration and species (re-)introduction has received increased attention…
Soil scarification, which involves the disruption of the top layer of soil, is a common method utilized to promote the regeneration of tree species on clear-cut and calamity areas. In the context of adapting forests to become climate-resilient mixed species forests, this method could also be used to…
Abstract One of silviculture's primary objectives is converting monospecific into diverse forest stands comprising climate-tolerant species, aiming to mitigate global change. In practice, this is often achieved by enrichment planting or seeding of species, currently not occurring in the specific area.…
