What is it about?
We assessed the amount of deadwood (lying deadwood, standing dead trees and stumps) in a peri-urban Calabrian pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) forests in Italy (Monte Morello in Tuscany region) characterized by different stand conditions and forest management practices. In addition, we estimated the volume of lying deadwood using both FAS method and LIS method in order to compare the results and the applicability of the two methods in the field measurements.

Why is it important?
The assessment of deadwood volume in forests is important to support decision makers (forest managers and planners) for defining a sustainble way to manage this component of forest ecosystems.
