“…Logs were randomly selected within an approximately 1ha tract in each site. To eliminate within-stem variation in DC (Pyle & Brown 1999), a stem section was selected for each log (ca. 2 m along the stem) where decay stage is uniform.…”

Fukasawa Y., 2016. Seedling regeneration on decayed pine logs after the deforestation events caused by pine wilt disease. Ann. For. Abstract. Coarse woody debris (CWD) forms an important habitat suitable for tree seedling establishment, and the CWD decay process influences tree seedling community. In Japan, a severe dieback of Pinus densiflora Sieb. & Zucc. caused by pine wilt disease (PWD) damaged huge areas of pine stands but creates huge mass of pine CWD. It is important to know the factors influencing seedling colonization on pine CWD and their variations among geographical gradient in Japan to expect forest regeneration in post-PWD stands. I conducted field surveys on the effects of latitude, climates, light condition, decay type of pine logs, and log diameter on tree seedling colonization at ten geographically distinct sites in Japan. In total, 59 tree taxa were recorded as seedlings on pine logs. Among them, 13 species were recorded from more than five sites as adult trees or seedlings and were used for the analyses. A generalized linear model showed that seedling colonization of Pinus densiflora was negatively associated with brown rot in sapwood, while that of Rhus trichocarpa was positively associated with brown rot in heartwood. Regeneration of Ilex macropoda had no relationships with wood decay type but negatively associated with latitude and MAT, while positively with log diameter. These results suggested that wood decay type is a strong determinant of seedling establishment for certain tree species, even at a wide geographical scale; however, the effect is tree species specific.

“…The aboveground woody debris can occur as standing dead trees or shrubs or their partial remains, or as material lying on the forest floor (Pyle & Brown, 1999). Belowground material include dead woody roots and buried wood, which is very decayed woody detritus found in the mineral soil or forest floor (Harmon & Sexton, 1996).…”

IntroduzioneLa necromassa legnosa in foresta, costituendo un habitat ideale per la vita di numerosi vertebrati ed in vertebrati (Bernicchia 2003, Paolucci 2003, Pesarini 2003, Renvall 2003, Riva & Bonini 2003, Rukalsky & Faccoli 2003, Schlaghamersky 2003, Tedaldi 2003, Tellini Florenzano 2003, Kappes et al. 2006, Odor et al. 2006), e fungendo spesso da nicchia ideale per la germinazione di molte specie arboree (Waddel 2002, Motta et al. 2006, è considerata come componente fondamentale per il mantenimento e l'incremento della biodiversità (Harmon et al. 1986, Wolynski 2001, Gilg 2004, Mircu et al. 2006, Stevenson et al. 2006, Woodall & Nagel 2006, Liira et al. 2007, Ranius & Jonsson 2007. La quantità di legno morto in fore sta è riconosciuta, in base al "criterio 4" del MCPFE Relativamente ai rapporti tra quantità di necromas sa e interventi colturali, numerosi autori (Green & Peterken 1997, Linder & Östlund 1998, Kirby et al. 1998, Fridman & Walheim 2000, Angers et al. 2005 evidenziano come questi ultimi possano incidere ne gativamente, e che di conseguenza in boschi poco di sturbati sia più elevata la quantità di legno morto. (in terms of total dry weight) mostly composed by fine woo dy debris.
