Edge presence and orientation drive wind-induced mortality in Swedish forests
By Carla Allais On 7 October 2026 In All published articles, Non classé, Open Access, Research paper
Research paper Key message Newly created forest edges, particularly those facing westerly winds, substantially raise the risk of wind damage in Swedish forests. Taller and spruce-dominated stands are more vulnerable. Integrating edge orientation and harvest timing into
