Tree species diversity can positively affect the multifunctionality of forests. This is why conifer monocultures of Scots pine and Norway spruce, widely promoted in Central Europe since the 18th and 19th century, are currently converted into mixed stands...

Prescribed fire is commonly used to reduce the wildfire risk in Mediterranean forests, but the soil?s hydrological response after fire is contrasting in literature experiences. The mulch treatment can limit the increases in runoff and erosion in the shor...
