Fuel-reduction thinning enhances Scots pine growth during the 2022 drought in the south-western Alps
Scots pine ( Pinus sylvestris L.) is one of the most widely distributed conifers in Europe, thanks to its pioneer traits and adaptability to diverse environments. Over the past two decades, Scots pine forests have been increasingly exposed to multiple disturbances such as drought, dieback and wildfires. Silvicultural interventions such as intensive thinning may reduce fire hazard while increasing individual tree resistance to drought, thereby slo…
Decarbonization through wood-based building material substitution in mountain territories
Forests are vital for mountain regions, offering both ecological and economic benefits. Using timber in construction can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by replacing high-emission materials like concrete and steel, though the long-term impact of this substitution – especially amid broader economic decarbonization – remains uncertain. We analyzed how replacing mineral-framed with locally sourced timber-framed homes in Valle Camonica and Valtellina…
Land-use legacy drives post-abandonment forest structure and understory in the western Alps
Rural exodus from European mountain regions to lowlands has triggered natural reforestation of abandoned lands in the 19 th and 20 th centuries, altering the provision of ecosystem services and creating management challenges. Post-abandonment forests are complex ecosystems that respond over time and space to several drivers. Their management requires integrated approaches that involve insights from historical ecology. Our study aimed to assess th…
Global change in the European Alps
Natural reforestation is one of the dominant processes in marginal mountain areas of the Northern hemisphere. There is a globally relevant need to predict where and when natural reforestation is likely to occur and what the ecological and social effects might be. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of land use/land cover change (LULCC) case studies investigating spatial patterns of post-abandonment natural reforestation in the Euro…
Legacy of wood charcoal production on subalpine forest structure and species composition
Land-use legacy on forest dynamics at both stand and landscape scale can last for centuries, affecting forest structure and species composition. We aimed to disentangle the history of the charcoal production legacies that historically shaped Mont Avic Natural Park (Aosta Valley, Italy) forests by integrating LiDAR, GIS, anthracological, and field data at the landscape scale. We adopted different geostatistical tools to relate geographic layers fr…
Legacies of past human activities on one of the largest old-growth forests in the south-east European mountains
Progressive fragmentation of a traditional Mediterranean landscape by hazelnut plantations
