Characterization of Curing and Bonding of Wood with Adhesive Mixtures of Liquefied Wood and Hexamethylenediamine
(Tech Science Press, 2023)Various crosslinking agents can be added to the formulations of natural-based adhesives for wood bonding in order to achieve better durability and higher strength of the formed joints. In the present study, the effect of ... -
Comparison of Rainfall Partitioning and Estimation of the Utilisation of Available Water in a Monoculture Beech Forest and a Mixed Beech-Oak-Linden Forest
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)Monoculture forests formed by Fagus sylvatica L. belong to one of the most sensitive forest ecosystems, mainly at low altitudes. Cultivation of this species in mixed stands should reduce its sensitivity to drought in the ... -
Comparison of the Biomass and Dendrometric Parameters of Norway Spruce with Its Different Representations in Young Stands at Lower Altitudes in the Czech Republic
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)In forestry, it is still common to plant the seedlings of and cultivate Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst) at lower altitudes; however, the climatic change that has been occurring increases evaporative demands in these ... -
Conditions of emergence of the Sooty Bark Disease and aerobiology of Cryptostroma corticale in Europe
(Pensoft Publishers, 2023)The sooty bark disease (SBD) is an emerging disease affecting sycamore maple trees (Acer pseudoplatanus) in Europe. Cryptostroma corticale, the causal agent, putatively native to eastern North America, can be also pathogenic ... -
Description of Intra-Annual Changes in Cambial Activity and Differentiation of Secondary Conductive Tissues of Aesculus hippocastanum Trees Affected by the Leaf Miner Cameraria ohridella
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2021)Aesculus hippocastanum trees are commonly infested by the leaf miner Cameraria ohridella, whose larval activity causes the destruction of the leaf parenchyma and induces defoliation. Pest attacks result in, e.g., production ... -
Effect of One-Sided Surface Charring of Beech Wood on Density Profile and Surface Wettability
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2021)One-sided surface charred European beech wood (Fagus sylvatica L.) was studied. Radial and tangential specimens of dimensions of 50 x 25 x 350 mm were one-sided surface charred at 200, 250, 300, 350, and 400 degrees C for ... -
Environmental Effects among Differently Located and Fertile Sites on Forest Basal-Area Increment in Temperate Zone
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)Environmental properties differently influence the growth of forest tree species. The antagonistic effects of variable environmental properties classify the forest response according to various tree compositions among ... -
Field Measurement of Effective Leaf Area Index using Optical Device in Vegetation Canopy
(Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE), 2021)Leaf area index (LAI) is an essential canopy variable describing the amount of foliage in an ecosystem. The parameter serves as the interface between green components of plants and the atmosphere, and many physiological ... -
Kolmogorovʼ entropy to investigate variation of forest soil properties in the Czech Republic
(Elsevier Science BV, 2022)A measure of variation in values of physico-chemical properties of different soil groups is influenced by deterministic uncertainty. In this study, we assessed variation level of soil horizon properties in the most wide-spread ... -
Monitoring Bark Beetle Forest Damage in Central Europe. A Remote Sensing Approach Validated with Field Data
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2020)Over the last decades, climate change has triggered an increase in the frequency of sprucebark beetle (Ips typographusL.) in Central Europe. More than 50% of forests in the Czech Republic areseriously threatened by this ... -
Properties of Plywood Panels Composed of Thermally Densified and Non-Densified Alder and Birch Veneers
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2023)Ukrainian companies mainly use birch in the manufacture of plywood, but species, such as black alder, are not yet widely used in the manufacture of plywood due to their poorer properties. It is well known that thermal ... -
Soil Microbial Functional Diversity under the Single-Season Influence of Traditional Forest Management in a Sessile Oak Forest of Central Europe
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2021)This one-year study focuses on the responses of a soil environment to the implementation of traditional forest management practices in oak-hornbeam stands with the following treatments: cut (C), cut + litter raking (CR), ... -
Surface charring of silver fir wood cladding using an enhanced traditional Japanese Yakisugi method
(North Carolina State University, 2022)The aim of this work was to better understand the ignition method of timber charring in order to improve the industrial process. Three silver fir boards were tied together to make a triangular prism, which acted as a ... -
Vertical spread of Hymenoscyphus fraxineus propagules
(Pensoft Publishers, 2023)Currently, the ash dieback causal agent Hymenoscyphus fraxineus is an established invasive pathogen in most European countries. Its potential to spread quickly among invaded forests is based on its propagules: airborne ... -
Worldwide tests of generic attractants, a promising tool for early detection of non-native cerambycid species
(Pensoft Publishers, 2023)A large proportion of the insects which have invaded new regions and countries are emerging species, being found for the first time outside their native range. Being able to detect such species upon arrival at ports of ...
