If there’s one hotly debated topic in French forests, it’s clear-cutting. This is the reason why the present scientific report has been commissioned. It addresses not only the issue of clear-cutting, but also that of forest renewal in the context of climate change, whether or not it is associated with clear-cutting. Natural regeneration is also considered.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The conclusions point to the effects of clear-cutting:<\/div>\n
    \n
  • on the physical and chemical environment: modification of the soil microclimate, risk of windthrow, erosion and rising water tables, potential loss of chemical fertility of the soil and loss of soil carbon;<\/li>\n
  • on biodiversity, making a distinction between :<\/li>\n
  • the impact of clear-cutting itself (on a landscape scale and on a more local scale on edges, riparian woodland, soil biodiversity, influence on wild ungulates, replacement habitats)<\/li>\n
  • the impact of sylvicultural works implemented after a clear-cut (soil preparation, planting versus regeneration).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    <\/div>\n
    The human, social and economic dimensions of clear-cutting are also addressed. Finally, the document lists the prospects for research into clear-cutting and forest renewal in the context of climate change.<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":40284,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nImpact of clear-cutting: review the facts to feed the debate - For\u00eat.Nature<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/foretnature.be\/en\/forestnews\/impact-of-clear-cutting-review-the-facts-to-feed-the-debate\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Impact of clear-cutting: review the facts to feed the debate - For\u00eat.Nature\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"If there’s one hotly debated topic in French forests, it’s clear-cutting.
