Thirty-year experiment found thinned mountain ash recovered as much carbon as untouched forests
A post sharing the research says thinned mountain ash grew 20% thicker and sheltered Leadbeater’s possums.
TLDR
ScienceDaily describes a 30-year Australian experiment in which heavily thinned mountain ash forests grew unusually large trees and recovered enough carbon to match or exceed untouched areas. A post sharing the research says the trees grew 20% thicker and sheltered Leadbeater’s possums. The results suggest carefully managed thinning could support timber production, wildlife habitat and carbon storage.
