How to effectively mitigate damage from large scale disturbances

The goal of conference was to stress the issues with large scale damages after disturbances and present improvements for mitigating damages caused after these events. Options for improvement in the field of organization of work after the disturbance, technical part of restoration (logging) and biological part of restoration (artificial and natural regeneration) ere presented.

We analyzed post-disturbance development of forest stands. Our focus was on comparison of vegetation development between cleared (felling and salvaging of trees was executed) and non-cleared forest stands affected by disturbance. We measured regeneration on 45 sample plots situated in 7 research objects in southern and southeastern part of Slovenia. Results indicate differences between the two post-disturbance management strategies. In some cases non-management can be better decision for post-disturbance vegetation development and prevention of unfavorable biotic and abiotic processes.

Comparison of natural and artificial regeneration of forests affected in natural disturbances

Climatic changes affect minor resistance and vitality of the forest, incidence of natural disturbances increases. In this research we compared efficiency of natural and artificial restoration of forests affected by natural disturbances; the stress was laid on structure and growth of seedlings, impact of ground vegetation, and importance of seed trees.
