IUFRO Podcast: Branching out: What Makes a Forest Healthy?
|
What defines a "healthy forest"? According to experts on the latest episode of IUFRO's "Branching Out" podcast, the answer depends entirely on your objectives. For a forest managed for timber, any insect or disease that reduces wood quality is a negative influence. However, in a native forest managed for biodiversity, these same agents can be beneficial, recycling nutrients and resetting the ecosystem.
In Episode 7, host Jose Bolaños (IUFRO HQ) and co-host Raghav Sharma from the International Forestry Students' Association (IFSA) spoke with Tod Ramsfield (Natural Resources Canada/University of Alberta) and Maartje Klapwijk (Swedish University of Agricultural Science), Co-Coordinators of Division 7, Forest Health. They explained that their Division focuses on the interactions between trees and harmful biotic impacts, which are broadly divided into forest pathology (diseases, often caused by fungi) and forest entomology (insects).
