Check out our new paper published in Forest Ecology and Management, where we used terrestrial and airborne LiDAR to estimate wood volume in slash walls (an effective forest management practice to prevent deer herbivory)! @XiangtaoX

This study provides novel data and methodology to estimate the construction cost of slash walls which are critical for optimizing slash wall applications.
2) TLS-based wood volume estimates were similar across both short & tall slash walls with an average volume of 21.34 m3/30 m for short slash walls and 21.50 m3/30 m for tall slash walls, corresponding to 16.9 t dry biomass /30 m and 17.0 t dry biomass /30 m respectively.
3) Average merchantable (diameter > 15.24 cm) and non-merchantable (diameter < 15.24 cm) timber fraction was 68.75 % and 31.35 % for short slash walls and 65.04 % and 34.96 % for tall slash walls.

Excited to have been involved with this project during my MS and to see this publication finally out on resilience-focused forest management along roadsides in CT! 🌳🏡 @quercus_amanda@bobbyfahey79

I am seeking a motivated #postdoc for predicting #tropical#forest dynamics using process-based and/or data-driven approaches at Cornell EEB. Two years' funding (with potential of further renewal). Check https://t.co/BpPV29VUrs for details.🌴🌿🖥️ Please RT
Excited to announce that I successfully defended my masters last week! It’s been an incredible journey at @UConnNRE along with all the incredible friends and colleagues I’ve made along the way. While I’ll certainly miss it I’m ready for the next journey out in NY!
Incredible visit to the Asiago Plateau in northeast Italy to see the effects of the 2018 Storm Vaia!
The forests were severely during WW1 which resulted in the replanting of Norway Spruce. Millions of these trees fell during the storm.
Are you looking for timber or lumber? Great Mountain Forest offers sustainably harvested, locally sourced, air dried and milled in-house lumber. If you have logs to mill, we can do that too! Contact [email protected] for more information.
