Abstract

Black Cherry (Prunus serotina Ehrh.) is a broadleaved tree species native to Northern- and Central-America which was introduced in many other parts of the world, especially in European countries. In many places it has been classified as an invasive species and its management is subject to hotly debates. This review provides an overview of the existing knowledge on the ecology and management of this species in its native and non-native range, with special focus on Europe. Based on the reviewed literature, Black Cherry is a fast-growing and light-demanding forest gap specialist, which tolerates most soil conditions. Depending on the forest site, the species has an either positive or negative influence on soil conditions and nutrient cycling. It is able to alter the forest species composition and site conditions in its non-native range, necessitating control measures in nature conservation areas. However, the elimination of this species has been unsuccessful. Instead, the silvicultural integration of Black Cherry may provide a cost- and labor-effective alternative with additional benefits for forest owners. As a specialist for disturbed forest sites, the future importance of Black Cherry might increase under a changing climate, not only as an intermediate species in secondary succession, but also as a timber species comparable to other non-native tree species in Europe.

Abstract

De Amerikaanse vogelkers (Prunus serotina) is ondanks intensieve bestrijding volledig ingeburgerd in Noordwest Europa en niet meer uit te roeien. Afhankelijk van de terreindoelen is het aan de eigenaar/beheerder te beoordelen in welke mate vogelkers als een probleem moet worden beschouwd en in hoeverre maatregelen moeten worden getroffen om dominantie door vogelkers te voorkomen. We hebben een beslisboom ontwikkeld om handvatten te bieden om met deze ‘nieuwe’ boomsoort te leven. Afhankelijk van het begroeiingstype wordt in de beslisboom aangegeven hoe gewenste bos- en natuurtypen gerealiseerd zouden kunnen worden. no isbn nrpages: 55 status: published

14. Admixture Of Rich-Litter Species As A Management Concept Boosting Forest Resilience

Author

Nyssen, Bart

Abstract

Many forests Europe-wide are growing on nutrient-imbalanced acid soils, and are often composed of monocultures of adapted tree species that further amplify this oligotrophic regime. But study of palynological records and relict forests suggests that even on the poorest sands a rich, more productive alternative stable state, dominated by rich-litter tree species exists. From an evolutionary point of view, rich-litter is a more recent functional trait supporting fast nutrient turnover, earthworm bioturbation and mull humus. Research in common gardens has shown the potential of rich-litter species to maintain or restore resilient mesotrophic systems. But restoration is not straightforward: oligotrophic system interactions induce and maintain conditions that are hostile for rich-litter species. But restoration is hampered by the conditions of the oligotrophic system, which are hostile for rich-litter species. Successful large-scale restoration therefore implies deeper understanding of the factors underlying the attractor behavior of the oligotrophic system, which may be soil type and context dependent. As a result, integrated soil restoration combines actions supporting the introduction of rich-litter species, e.g. fertilization with rock dust, inoculation of earthworms, or introduction of accompanying shrub and herb species.This perspective paves the way for large-scale admixture of rich-litter species, from the fundamental research on litter decomposition and soil effects of mixtures, over the conceptual framework of rich-litter species and alternative stable states in forest soils, to the first results of restoration management experiments. It concludes with some considerations on the validity of this new concept in other continents.
