摘要
The interactions between wind damage and biotic agents, such as root-rot and cervids (bark-stripping), amplify the effects of storms on forests in Europe and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) stands, in the Eastern Baltic region in particular. Due to uneven manageability of the biotic agents, the information about their effects on susceptibility to wind damage can aid the prioritization of management for sustaining spruce stands. This study compared the effect of root-rot and bark-stripping on the mechanical stability of Norway spruce via mixed covariance analysis of basal bending moments, based on static tree-pulling test data of 87 trees from five stands in Latvia. Bark-stripping caused a significantly stronger reduction in resistance against the intrinsic wood damages (primary failure) compared to root-rot, while showing a similar effect on resistance to fatal (secondary) failure. This suggests that bark-stripping damage increases the susceptibility of spruce to storm legacy effects, and, hence, is a higher priority risk factor in Norway spruce stands under the climate-smart management approach.
