Long-term effect of thinning from above on forest-floor in Scots pine stands in Southern Moravia (Czech Republic)

Original language description

One of the preconditions of the sustainable forest management is maintaining the production capacity of the site. In Southern Moravia, Scots pine stands are managed by a clear-cutting system with relatively intensive soil preparation before planting. Asa result, an important part of the forest ecosystem ? humus horizons ? must be re-created during each rotation period. We observed the long-term effect of management on production characteristics and site conditions in stands of Scots pine on nutrient-poor sandy sites. The research was conducted on experimental series established during 1962 in 33-year-old pine stands. After the third experimental treatment (1972), the basal area of the control and thinned plots differed significantly. Twenty years later, these differences disappeared due to post-windstorm salvage cuts on the control treatments. In 2008, about 9-10 t ha-1 of dry mass was stored in the forest-floor L (litter) horizon under both stands, with no significant differences bet
