Abstract:Context
Wind is an important disturbance in circumboreal forests, and its frequency and severity may change with climate change, highlighting the need to understand the drivers of wind disturbance. Currently, how landscape configuration drives wind disturbance is poorly understood.
Objectives
We investigated whether and how landscape configuration is related to the extent and spatial pattern of wind disturbance, and how these relationships vary bet… Show more
