Effect of salvage-logging on post-fire tree establishment and ground cover vegetation in semi-natural hemiboreal forests
Fire is a common disturbance in boreal forests causing changes in biological diversity at various spatial scales.In the past 100 years, forest management has limited fire outbreaks, but in the future, the fire-affected forest area is expected to increase in many regions due to climate change.Burned forests are typically salvage-logged, but the effe
