Taking the Changtian small watershed in the Xixiu District of Anshun City as an example, this paper uses the ecological service function value method to roughly calculate the ecological service function value of the small watershed ecosystem: the ecological service function value of the Changtian small watershed is 913.586 million yuan, and the total amount of ecological compensation is 11.6245 million yuan, of which the farmland system compensation is 1.3194 million yuan, the forest system compensation is 7.5336 million yuan, and the water system compensation is 256,000 yuan, The compensation for the fruit forest system is 2,515,500 yuan. Based on the value of ecosystem service function, the compensated and non-compensated ecosystem service functions are distinguished, and the equivalent factors that different ecosystems can provide compensated ecosystem functions are expressed, so that the determination of ecological compensation amount is scientific and more accurate, and then provides a basis for the determination of ecological compensation standard of the small watershed.","PeriodicalId":54313,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Forestry","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88786869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies have shown that native tree plantations can have greater economic, and ecological benefits than non-native plantations. Facilitative nutritional interactions with nitrogen-fixing trees are a common practice used in hopes of enhancing nitrogen input. Dalbergia retusa and Terminalia amazonia are two neotropical species frequently used for timber extraction. In order to understand these species belowground interactions, we worked on 33 plots of the T. amazonia and D. retusa mixtures in the Agua Salud Project Native Species plantations in Panama. The objective of this study was to assess if soil biochemical properties under T. amazonia trees might be influenced by D. retusa in these mixtures. For this, soil samples were collected and analyzed for nitrogen pools, extractable cations and selected phosphorus constituents. Our results showed that nutrient concentrations were not significantly different below D. restusa and T. amazonia trees. Nonetheless, temporal and physicochemical characteristics of the plantation might be influencing the tree performance and should be considered for a better understanding of the nutrient dynamics in native tree plantations.","PeriodicalId":54313,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Forestry","volume":"42 1","pages":"205 - 217"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48208571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica L.) and glossy buckthorn (Frangula alnus P. Mill.), originally imported from Europe, have become naturalized in many different ecosystems and are causing negative effects on associated ecosystem services. These invasive plants often create dense, monotypic stands that out-compete native plant species for nutrients and light. Current control methods, including manual or mechanical removal, are expensive and are mainly limited to destroying the buckthorn on site. The high cost of removal may be a barrier for restoration. Economic valuation should be carried out in terms of ecosystems services to better understand the cost-benefit of removing buckthorn. A cost-effective solution for removing buckthorn should also be explored. In this review, the state of the knowledge on the effects of buckthorn and its cost associated with major ecosystem services were synthesized. Existing methods to harvest and transport buckthorn and potential new methods were compiled. Finally, a policy review of buckthorn was completed for states where buckthorn is most prevalent. Findings from this review will be important for applying an economic cost to buckthorn and revealing where more work can be done.","PeriodicalId":54313,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Forestry","volume":"42 1","pages":"218 - 240"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45076848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results show that nurse shrubs may delay roe deer browsing and rubbing on highly attractive cherry-wood saplings, even in a situation of high deer density. The most obstructing shrubs at roe deer knee to shoulder height (Populus x canescens and Cytisus scoparius) appeared to be efficient barriers, whereas the spiny shrub (Elaeagnus angustifolia) did not protect saplings more efficiently than thornless species. Yet, obstruction appeared to be less effective against browsing when the nurse species was itself browsed (Cornus sanguinea and Alnus cordata). Since roe deer may help to reduce plantation cleaning through the control of the shrub layer, especially brambles, we argue that natural methods of protection using surrounding vegetation should represent an economic and sustainable alternative to artificial protection of saplings.","PeriodicalId":54313,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Forestry","volume":"41 1","pages":"847 - 860"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45852295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thirty-nine 20 m by 20 m quadrats were laid along six transects. Woody species with DBH ≥ 2.5 cm were recorded in each quadrat. Overall, 117 composite soil samples were collected from three soil layers of 1 m × 1 m subplots. The soil seed bank was analyzed using the seedling emergence technique. The findings revealed that the aboveground vegetation was represented by 55 woody species, whereas the soil seed bank flora was represented by 31. The seed abundance, species richness and diversity decreased with increasing soil depth. Sorensen’s similarity between the soil seed bank and aboveground flora was low inferring low restoration potential from the SSB in the natural and plantation forests. Therefore, in-situ conservation measures other than SSB alone should be implemented for sustainable development and use of the forest ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":54313,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sustainable Forestry","volume":"41 1","pages":"829 - 846"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47036125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
