• Prediction of butt rot volume in Norway spruce forest stands using harvester, remotely sensed and environmental data 

      Räty, Janne; Breidenbach, Johannes; Hauglin, Marius; Astrup, Rasmus Andreas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-12-25)
      Butt rot (BR) damage of a tree results from a decay caused by a pathogenic fungus. BR damages associated with Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) account for considerable economic losses in timber production across the ...
    • Spatio-temporal prediction of soil moisture and soil strength by depth-to-water maps 

      Schönauer, Marian; Väätäinen, Kari; Prinz, Robert; Lindeman, Harri; Pszenny, Dariusz; Jansen, Martin; Maack, Joachim; Talbot, Bruce; Astrup, Rasmus Andreas; Jaeger, Dirk (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-11-16)
      The utilization of detailed digital terrain models entails an enhanced basis for supporting sustainable forest management, including the reduction of soil impacts through predictions of site trafficability during mechanized ...
    • Spatio-temporal prediction of soil moisture using soil maps, topographic indices and SMAP retrievals 

      Schönauer, Marian; Prinz, Robert; Väätäinen, Kari; Astrup, Rasmus Andreas; Pszenny, Dariusz; Lindeman, Harri; Jaeger, Dirk (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-02-23)
      Milder winters and extended wetter periods in spring and autumn limit the amount of time available for carrying out ground-based forest operations on soils with satisfactory bearing capacity. Thus, damage to soil in form ...
