Fast recovery of suppressed Norway spruce trees after selection harvesting on a drained peatland forest site

Based on a new study, the carbon sequestration of suppressed spruces recovered during the following growth season after a selection harvesting. This is great news from the perspective of climate change. The prerequisites for practicing continuous cover forestry in fertile drained peatland forests are also good from the perspective of tree growth, as the slow stem diameter growth period, sc. “release effect” proved to be relatively short.
