Nacrtak The work was carried out in Caprarola (Viterbo, Central Italy), in an aged Quercus cerris L. coppice positioned in hill zones, with 45% average slope. Harvesting was conducted according to the shortwood system (SWS). Felling and processing were done by chainsaw, while the bunching was performed with three different systems: in Plot 1 with mules, in Plot 2 with a tractor-mounted winch, i...

The aquifer of “mineral” water, historically known for its curative properties, is an identifying characteristic the Anticolana valley. This area hosted a coppice chestnut forest long time. Under forest, there important aquifer, renowned and widely recognized preventing renal stone formation or facilitating their expulsion. mineral water pre- vents calcium oxalate phosphate crystals in kidney p...

We calibrated and evaluated the agricultural model AquaCrop for the simulation of water use and yield of a short-rotation coppice (SRC) plantation with poplar (Populus) in East Flanders (Belgium) during the second and the third rotation (first 2 years only). Differences in crop development and growth during the course of the rotations were taken into account during the model calibration. Overal...

This article studied how wastewater treatment performance of a short rotation forestry system was influenced by the seasonal operational changes under extreme Mongolian winter conditions. For this reason, two beds planted with Willow (Salix spec.) and Poplar (Populus trees were operated over period years different conditions: (A) “external storage” (B) “internal pretreated wastewater. condition...
