Līga Liepa, Zigmārs Rendenieks, Edgars Dubrovskis, Lāsma Freimane, Inga Straupe, Āris Jansons. (2025). Patterns of short-term vegetation recovery after a fire in protected Scots pine forests of hemiboreal Latvia. Silva Fennica vol. 59 no. 1 article id 24046. https://doi.org/10.14214/sf.24046
Keywords: succession; fire disturbance; plant functional traits; post-fire regeneration; protected forests
Highlights: We observed more rapid vegetation recovery at the ground level, but the dominance increased more steadily at herb and tree layers; We found the highest species diversity at the herb layer during the third (middle-aged stands) and fourth (over-mature stands) years after fire disturbance; From regenerating tree species, only Populus tremula in over-mature stands showed a decline in projective cover during the four studied years.

Jānis Donis, Māra Kitenberga, Guntars Šņepsts, Edgars Dubrovskis, Āris Jansons. (2018). Factors affecting windstorm damage at the stand level in hemiboreal forests in Latvia: case study of 2005 winter storm. Silva Fennica vol. 52 no. 4 article id 10009. https://doi.org/10.14214/sf.10009
Keywords: Norway spruce; natural disturbance; windstorm; hemiboreal
Highlights: In hemiboreal forests in Latvia, dominant tree species, admixture of spruce in canopy-layer, mean height, timing of thinnings, upwind forest edges and wind gusts had significant effect on windstorm damage occurrence at stand-level; Stands on peat soils were more damaged than stands on mineral soils; Tree species composition of canopy-layer was not statistically significant in the model.
