Abstract
To explore the carbon sequestration potential of hardwood forests in the eastern United States, the forest vegetation simulator (FVS) and life cycle assessment (LCA) were integrated to analyze the forest carbon dynamics for the four subregions of the eastern United States: northeast (NE), mid-Atlantic (MA), southeast (SE), and north central (NC). This study quantitatively assessed current forest management practices for timber production and their associated life-cycle environmental impacts. The system boundary was selected to be consistent with the A1 module (extraction and upstream production) required by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for wood products. The results indicate that uneven-aged (UA) forest management yields higher carbon stocks and growth than even-aged (EA) management across all subregions. In contrast, clearcutting under EA management results in higher carbon removal. It was found that fuel consumption-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for manual and mechanized harvesting systems for both management types ranged between 9.13 and 12.15 kg of CO2 equivalent per cubic meter (kg CO2e/m3), with an average of 11 kg CO2e/m3 of hardwood timber harvested across all subregions. It is estimated that 63-187 megajoules (MJ) of energy is needed to produce 1 m3 of hardwood sawlogs. The extraction and loading processes contributed more to the total GHG emissions than the felling and processing within the system boundary. The study concludes that UA management led to higher forest carbon and net carbon balance (excluding carbon stock) compared to EA management in the eastern U.S. hardwood forests. Forest management strategies should be determined based on the ecological goal of increasing forest carbon stock and the economic goal of maximizing revenue from the timber market. The findings of this study have implications for policymakers and forest managers in mitigating climate change and carbon sequestration through sustainable forest management for timber production.

Abstract
Forest harvesting affects dissolved organic matter (DOM) and aqueous mercury inputs as well as the food web structure in small-headwater streams, but how these upstream changes manifest downstream is unclear. To address this uncertainty, we examined DOM quality, autochthony in the caddisfly Hydropsychidae (using δ2 H), and methylmercury (MeHg) concentrations in stream water and the caddisfly along a longitudinal gradient (first- to fourth-order streams, subcatchments of 50-1900 ha) in paired partially harvested and reference catchments in central Ontario, Canada. Although measures of DOM quality (specific ultraviolet absorbance at 254 nm 2.20-11.62) and autochthony in caddisflies (4.9%-34.0%) varied among sites, no upstream-to-downstream differences in these measures were observed between the paired harvested and reference catchments. In contrast, MeHg levels in stream water (0.06-0.35 ng/L) and caddisflies (29.7-192 µg/kg dry wt) were significantly higher in the upstream sites but not the farthest downstream sites in the harvested catchments compared to the reference catchments. This suggests that while current mitigation measures used by forestry companies did not prevent elevated MeHg in water and invertebrates at smaller spatial scales (subcatchments of 50-400 ha), these upstream impacts did not manifest at larger spatial scales (subcatchments of 800-1900 ha). The present study advances our understanding of spatially cumulative impacts within harvested catchments, which is critical to help forest managers maintain healthy forest streams and their provisioning of aquatic ecosystem services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recruitment after disturbance events depends on many factors including the environmental conditions of the affected area and the vegetation that could potentially grow in such affected areas. To understand the regeneration characteristics that occurs in temperate forests, we evaluated differences in the number of seedlings from trees and shrubs along an altitudinal gradient in Sierra Norte of Oaxaca, Mexico in different biological, climatic, edaphic, light, topographic, and disturbance regimes. Here, we aimed to test the hypothesis that the environmental disturbances influence on recruitment (positive or adverse influence). We sampled the vegetation to obtain recruitment and adult data, and species composition. RESULTS We identified three disturbance regimes: areas affected by forest harvesting, areas exposed to pest management, and undisturbed areas. We identified 29 species of trees and shrubs (9 species of the genus Pinus, 1 species of the genus Abies, 10 species of the genus Quercus, and 9 of other species of broadleaf). We found that both environmental conditions and disturbances influence the recruitment of vegetation in the study area. In particular, disturbances had a positive influence on the regeneration of oak and other broadleaf species by increasing the number of seedlings, and a negative influence on the regeneration of conifers by decreasing the recruitment. Because the recruitment of conifers is more likely in undisturbed areas (sites over 3050 m). CONCLUSIONS Environmental factors and anthropogenic disturbances can alter the recruitment of forests. Consequently, knowing which factors are key for the recruitment of vegetation is fundamental for decision-making processes. This is particularly relevant in areas as the one in this study because it provides knowledge to local people on vegetation recovery for a proper management of their biological resources.

Abstract
Despite the attention currently given to the potential environmental benefits of large-scale forest planting, there is a shortage of clear observational evidence regarding the effects on river flows, and what there is has often been contradictory or inconclusive. This paper presents three independently conducted paired-catchment forestry studies covering 66 station-years of flow measurements in the UK and Ireland. In each case coniferous evergreen trees were removed from one catchment with minimal soil disturbance while the adjoining control catchment was left unchanged. Trees were removed from 20% - 90% of the three experimental basins. Following woodland removal there was an increase in dry weather baseflow at all sites. Baseflows increased by about 8% after tree removal from a quarter of the Hore basin and by 41% for the near-total cut at Howan. But the changes were more complex for peak flows. Tree harvesting increased the smallest and most frequent peak storm flows, indicating that afforestation would lead to the suppression of such events. This was however restricted to events well below the mean annual flood, indicating that the impact of forests upon the largest and most damaging floods is likely to be limited. Whilst a forest cover can be effective in mitigating small and frequent stormflows it should never be assumed to provide protection against major flood events.

Abstract
Competition for resources can affect growth and increase mortality in forest stands. The effects of this process are little known, especially in areas subjected to forest management which show distinct growth dynamics when compared to unmanaged natural areas. This study aimed to estimate, evaluate and select the best fit competition indices (CI) for individual trees in a managed forest in the eastern Amazon. The data used originated from 18 permanent plots of 1 ha each, which were monitored for 12 years after Reduced Impact Logging (RIL). For the competition analysis, 23 indices were tested. CIs were evaluated based on graphical analyses and linear correlation coefficients(r)between each index and variables, basal area growth(ΔG), probability of mortality(Pm), and post-logging period (PLP). In addition, the partial F-test was applied to verify how well the calculated CIs explain the variations observed in ΔGandP(m). The distance-independent index for BAL (Basal Area Larger) performed the best. For the distance-dependent and semi-independent indices, the best interactions with the variables tested occurred in radii of 15 and 20 m away from the object tree. The largest trees presented higher values ofΔG. While P(m)was similar among the three tree classes, larger trees had a slightly higher P(m)due to thier low density of individuals. The results obtained in this study may help to include CIs in growth and production models at the individual tree level in tropical rainforests, especially in those managed in the Brazilian Amazon.

Abstract
Behavioural plasticity during habitat selection plays a key role in determining whether organisms may thrive under human-induced rapid environmental changes. As organisms rely on environmental cues to make decisions, these behavioural responses may be maladaptive. We studied the European stonechat Saxicola torquatus as a model open-habitat bird species breeding in three structurally different land-use types generated by agriculture and forestry activities. In this mosaic landscape, we compared the relative attractiveness and the breeding habitat quality of intensive grassland, Christmas tree plantations and clear-cut patches in plantation forests to test whether habitat selection was adaptive. We examined the settlement pattern of territorial males to evaluate habitat preference. We recorded key parameters reflecting reproductive performances, adult and first-year survival to estimate the individual fitness of the birds and assess the quality of the different land-use types for breeding. Stonechats preferentially settled in clear-cut patches, but their fitness was not found to be markedly different in comparison with the other occupied habitats. Although they produced slightly lower-quality offspring in clear-cut patches, we did not find a negative consequence on first-year survival probabilities or any among-habitat differences in adult survival. With our analysis integrating multiple components of individual fitness, we show that all occupied land-use types are similarly rewarding for the breeding stonechats. Our study shows that some species can benefit from novel land-use types emerging in the landscape as a result of human activities. Flexible habitat selection in the stonechat has most probably contributed to its recent population increase in Western Europe.

Abstract
The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model was applied to seven paired, nested watersheds within the Mica Creek Experimental Watershed located in northern Idaho, USA. The goal was to evaluate the ability of WEPP to simulate the direct and cumulative effects of clear-cutting and partial-cutting (50% canopy removal) on water and sediment yield. WEPP was modified to better represent changes in the Leaf Area Index during post-harvest forest vegetative recovery. Good agreement between simulated and observed streamflow was achieved with minimal to no calibration over a 16-year (1992-2007) period. For the seven watersheds and the entire study period, the overall Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), Kling-Gupta efficiency (KGE), and deviation of runoff volume (DV) between observed and simulated daily streamflow ranged 0.58-0.71, 0.67-0.81, and -4% to 9%, respectively. Good agreement between predicted and observed suspended sediment yield was achieved through the calibration of a single channel critical shear stress parameter. For sediment yield, NSE, KGE, and DV ranged 0.62-0.97, 0.43-0.97, and -2% to 2%, respectively, for the calibration period, and 0.61-0.93, 0.42-0.95, and -24% to 13%, respectively, for the period of model performance assessment. Regression analysis of observed- and WEPP-simulated increase in water and sediment yield following clear-cut treatment was similar; however, the WEPP-simulated increase was lower compared to observations particularly from the partial-cut watershed. The variability in the critical shear parameter for different stream channels in the study watersheds was directly related to the observed mean particle size on the stream bed and suggests that applications of the WEPP model in ungauged basins could potentially set the critical shear parameter based on particle size. Overall, the simulated results demonstrate the potential of WEPP as a modeling tool for forestland watershed management, particularly for estimating the effects of forest harvest on hydrograph fluctuations and consequently, stream sediment transport.

Abstract
Browsing damage by native ungulates is often to be considered one of the reasons of regeneration failure in Nothofagus pumilio silvicultural systems. Fencing and hunting in forests at regeneration phase have been proposed to mitigate browsing effects. This study aims to determine effectiveness of these control methods in harvested forests, evaluating browsing damage over regeneration, as well as climate-related constraints (freezing or desiccation). Forest structure and regeneration plots were established in two exclosures against native ungulates (Lama guanicoe) by wire fences in the Chilean portion of Tierra del Fuego island, where tree regeneration density, growth, abiotic damage and quality (multi-stems and base/stem deformation) were assessed. Exclosures did not influence regeneration density (at the initial stage with < 1.3 m high, and at the advanced stage with >1.3 m high). However, sapling height at 10-years old was significantly lower outside (40-50 cm high) than inside exclosures (80-100 cm), and also increased their annual height growth, probably as a hunting effect. Likewise, quality was better inside exclosures. Alongside browsing, abiotic conditions negatively influenced sapling quality in the regeneration phase (20%-28% of all seedlings), but greatly to taller plants (as those from inside exclosure). This highlights the importance of considering climatic factors when analysing browsing effects. For best results, control of guanaco in recently harvested areas by fencing should be applied in combination with a reduction of guanaco density through continuous hunting. The benefits of mitigation actions (fencing and hunting) on regeneration growth may shorten the regeneration phase period in shelterwood cutting forests (30-50% less time), but incremental costs must be analysed in the framework of management planning by means of long-term studies.
