Abstract

Vauhkonen (2024) showed concerns mainly regarding the analyses and used models in our study on forest management effects on the spatial distribution of willow tits (Kumpula et al., 2023). The idea in this study was to figure out if forest management practices (clear-cuttings and thinnings) have effect on the decreasing willow tit population. We used long-term breeding data of willow tits collected in Oulu which was combined with spatial environmental data with GIS (Geographic Information System) methods. Here we answer the criticism, explain some inaccuracies of our study and point out with more detailed analyses of nearest neighbour distances (NNdist) of willow tits that the forest management practices indeed are related to decreasing willow tit population density.

作者 Vauhkonen 对 "Kumpula 等人关于'森林管理对柳山雀（Poecile montanus）空间分布的影响'的评论 "的回应

Vauhkonen（2024年）主要对我们关于森林管理对柳山雀空间分布的影响的研究（Kumpula等人，2023年）中的分析和使用的模型表示担忧。这项研究的目的是弄清森林管理措施（清伐和间伐）是否会对柳山雀数量的减少产生影响。我们使用了在奥卢收集的柳山雀长期繁殖数据，并通过 GIS（地理信息系统）方法将这些数据与空间环境数据相结合。在此，我们回应了批评意见，解释了我们研究中的一些不准确之处，并通过对柳山雀近邻距离（NNdist）的更详细分析指出，森林管理措施确实与柳山雀种群密度下降有关。

期刊介绍： Forest Ecology and Management publishes scientific articles linking forest ecology with forest management, focusing on the application of biological, ecological and social knowledge to the management and conservation of plantations and natural forests. The scope of the journal includes all forest ecosystems of the world. A peer-review process ensures the quality and international interest of the manuscripts accepted for publication. The journal encourages communication between scientists in disparate fields who share a common interest in ecology and forest management, bridging the gap between research workers and forest managers. We encourage submission of papers that will have the strongest interest and value to the Journal''s international readership. Some key features of papers with strong interest include: 1. Clear connections between the ecology and management of forests; 2. Novel ideas or approaches to important challenges in forest ecology and management; 3. Studies that address a population of interest beyond the scale of single research sites, Three key points in the design of forest experiments, Forest Ecology and Management 255 (2008) 2022-2023); 4. Review Articles on timely, important topics. Authors are welcome to contact one of the editors to discuss the suitability of a potential review manuscript. The Journal encourages proposals for special issues examining important areas of forest ecology and management. Potential guest editors should contact any of the Editors to begin discussions about topics, potential papers, and other details.
