20.500.12556/DiRROS-19106 A five-step framework for creating forests for the future Changing environmental conditions, disturbances, and escalating demands for forest ecosystem services require foresters to restore present forestlands with new forest generations that will exhibit ecological integrity, diversity, high adaptive capacity, and the ability to provide essential ecosystem services. Establishing such forests requires careful consideration of the forest landscape and site dynamics. In pursuit of these requirements, we developed a novel framework that enables the restoration of forest sites and promotes the desired features of the forest complex at the same time. This framework was designed with the methods of system engineering and was organized in the same way as the forest planning process. It was tested in the habitat type of Illyrian Fagus sylvatica forests belonging to the Natura 2000 network. The environmental, vegetation, and site conditions were investigated via field inspections, available forest management plans, and simple GIS analyses. Additionally, we established a seminatural stand composed of European beech, sessile oak, sycamore maple, silver fir, and some wild fruit tree species. The survival of planted species was assessed using census and simple random sampling, the performance of provenances by the Student’s test, while microhabitat factors were explored by a one-way ANOVA. The survival rate of key species was estimated to be 55.6%, while that of fruit species was estimated to be 94.5%. Our framework demonstrated satisfactory performance and contained sufficient benchmarks to facilitate consistent decision-making. In the discussion, we elucidate the framework’s primary features and attributes of the mixed stand, where we also expose some open issues to be addressed in the future. restoration forest habitat type indigenous species planting mixed stand key species fruit species obnova gozdov gozdni habitatni tipi avtohtone vrste sajenje mešana stojnice ključne vrste sadne vrste true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2024-06-13 13:47:42 2024-06-13 13:47:43 2024-06-14 03:35:48 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 13. 4. 2024; str. 1-17 iss. 6 [article no. 912] Vol. 15 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2024-01-01 630*23 1999-4907 10.3390/f15060912 198803203 https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4907/15/6/912 odprtodostopen članek 1 ce61b1b0-297a-11ef-9c9e-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=26281 RAZ_Kovac_Marko_2024.pdf RAZ_Kovac_Marko_2024.pdf 1 2639C4CEAA1D817FBC4D5D501E96D10C 938ccb247e508769a8cd34dedb9316638f3349e4e3c8dca9e6dd527937de692b e5e9a2a0-297a-11ef-9c9e-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=26282 Gozdarski inštitut Slovenije 0 0 0
