Changes in soil properties, tree growth, and nutrition over a period of 10 years after stump removal and scarification on moderately coarse soils in interior British Columbia

Silvicultural site preparation treatments that involve severe soil and forest floor disturbance may, in the long-term, reduce soil productivity and negate the initial increased forest productivity obtained by controlling root diseases or vegetation. The effect of a range of stump removal treatments...
