Influence of management on susceptibility of Nordic boreal forests to damage by natural disturbances
Natural disturbances are fundamental in shaping forest ecosystems, yet management decisions in production forests can aggravate or mitigate their impacts. Understanding the interplay between forest adaptation strategies and susceptibility to damage is important for sustainable forest management. Here, we review the scientific literature to explore the relationship between natural disturbances and the impact of forest adaptation strategies on the …
Integrating wind damage vulnerability into long-term forest planning
Forest management affects vulnerability of forests to wind damage. • Forest planning can mitigate the vulnerability to wind damages. • The proposed model optimises management activities in space and time. • High-risk activities are restricted near vulnerable stands. • The model is adaptable and customisable. The vulnerability of forests to wind damage depends to a large degree on the characteristics of the specific stand and its neighboring stand…
Climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies for production forests
Climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies (CCAMS) are changes to the management of production forests motivated by the need to mitigate climate change, or adapt production forests to climate change risks. Sweden is employing CCAMS with unclear implications for biodiversity and forest ecosystem services (ES). Here, we synthesized evidence from 51 published scientific reviews, to evaluate the potential implications for biodiversity and a …
Balancing different forest values
Combining scientific and stakeholder knowledge in future scenario development — A forest landscape case study in northern Sweden
How reserve selection is affected by preferences in Swedish boreal forests
It is important to consider the preferences of the various stakeholders involved when evaluating effective reserve selection, since it is largely their preferences that determine which of a given set of potential reserve networks that actually is “the best”. We interviewed eight conservation planners working at the county administrative boards in each of the eight administrative counties covering boreal Sweden to establish weightings for differen…
Conflict resolution through ecosystem-based management
Swedish moose ( Alces alces ) management has over the years transformed from a situation similar to what Hardin (1968) defined as a tragedy of the commons – i.e. where open access and unrestricted demands lead to over-exploitation – into a situation characterized by an abundance of moose. While high numbers of moose are preferred by hunters, they damage forests through grazing, causing conflicts between hunters and forest owners. In an attempt to…

Implications for forest management of the EU Water Framework Directive's stream water quality requirements — A modeling approach
Integrating multiple criteria decision analysis in participatory forest planning
An Approach for Including Consideration of Stream Water Dissolved Organic Carbon in Long Term Forest Planning
The objective of this study was to add to a traditional forest planning model by incorporating some consideration of the effects of forestry on dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in streams over time. In a case study, for a watershed in northern Sweden, we present the best possible solution to a forest planning problem that maximizes the net present value (NPV) while the DOC concentration levels in the watershed are maintained below a …
