Words apart: Standardizing forestry terms and definitions across European biodi...
Trentanovi, Giovanni; Campagnaro, Thomas; Sitzia, Tommaso; Chianucci, Francesco; Vacchiano, Giorgio; Ammer, Christian; Ciach, Michał; Nagel, Thomas A.Forest biodiversity studies conducted across Europe use a multitude of forestry terms, often inconsistently. This hinders the comparability across studies and makes the assessment of the impacts of forest management on biodiversity highly context-dependent. Recent attempts to standardize forestry and stand description terminology mostly used a top-down approach that did not account for the perspectives and appr...
Where are we now with European forest multi-taxon biodiversity and where can we...

However, current sustainability assessments hardly account for direct biodiversity indicators. We focused on forest multi-taxon biodiversity to: i) gather and map the existing information; ii) identify knowledge and research gaps; iii) discuss its research potential. We established a rese...
