A crucial process of the terrestrial carbon cycle is photosynthetic uptake through plants. This may be quantified by calculating the fraction of absorbed photosynthetic active radiation (fapar), based on multispectral reflectance properties of the earth surface. The fapar index is available with global coverage from satellite sensors.Here, we combine two satellite missions, SeaWifs on board OrbView2 and MERIS on board Envisat, to produce time series with 10 days resolution for a period of 14 years (19982011) at a spatial resolution of 0.5 latitude x 0.5 longitude. These more than 50000 individual time series represent a huge range of dynamical behavior with respect to variability, periodicities and correlation structure.To characterize differences as a function of spatial location or distance, we employ Recurrence Quantification Analysis (RQA) and Recurrence Network Analysis (RNA). Two strategies are followed. On one hand, RQA and network variables are calculated for individual time series using identical recurrence parameters, and compared to see whether differences between them resemble different climate regimes, biomes, plant functional types or landuse classes. On the other hand, a multivariate extension of RNA will be exploited to see whether networks within networks occur, i.e. whether RNA provides sufficient contrasts to discern different clusters of pixels on the globe.Taken together, the recurrence analysis might lead to a new classification of the terrestrial biosphere which in turn can be compared to existing partitioning based on climate and/or vegetation properties. A number of technical issues will be addressed as well, such as the impact of the finite length of the series (504 values each), the necessity to gapfill parts of the data, the stability of network variables against changes in the recurrence parameters, or the computational challenges involved in the multinetwork analysis of many series. http://dames.pik-potsdam.de/Abstracts.pdf

Intensiteten i den norske skog- og klimadebatten er tidvis høy, men er den dermed også relevant? Det kan synes som man anser veivalg i norsk skogforvaltning og bruken av biomasse fra norske skoger som avgjørende for å redde kloden fra irreversible klimaendringer....

Toppskader på gran i ungskog kan gi store økonomiske tap da det kan bli gankvist eller dobbelttopper i den mest verdifulle delen av stammen. Nå har to uvanlige sopper slått til, og i de mest berørte bestandene kan opp mot to tredjedeler av trærne ha fått skader.

I 2009 ble rødbandsjuke første gang registrert i norge, i Bardu og Målselv kommuner i Troms. I 2010-12 er sjukdommen observert i tre områder på Østlandet. Fram til 2012 var angrepne beskjedne, men i år var det kraftige angrep i enkelte bestand, noe som vakte stor oppmerksomhet på en internasjonal konferanse om denne sjukdommen.

Damage by cone and seed insects is a severe impediment to those producing conifer seeds in seed orchards. The SNS-supported network `Nordic cone and seed insects` has been cooperating to address this problem since 2007. One of the outcomes is the coordinated monitoring of the most important insect species. The data collected form a basis for establishing strategies for pest management.

Improving wood preservation techniques can contribute substantially to reducing waste and avoiding negative environmental impacts. Dr Andreas Treu outlines a promising technique to dramatically reduce or even stop wood degradation altogether by using electro-osmosis.

Environmentally sound wooden facades with long service lives and acceptable appearance are desired. Several types of modified wood are used in building applications to fulfil those requirements, but there is a potential for using more modified wood material. In facades modified wood are often used without any surface treatment or coating, but some sort of coating are desired and requested in a segment of the potential marked. Finding suitable coating systems for modified wood can be a challenge, and the objective of this study was to evaluate the long time performance of modified wood substrates in combinations with different coating systems after 8 years of outdoors exposure. Furthermore, evaluations at 4 and 8 years were compared to study the quantitative mould growth in a very late stage of the test period to capture any deviant behaviour from the traditional growth curve. Three coating systems were applied on furfurylated Scots pine, acetylated Scots pine, thermally modified Scots pine, oil/thermally modified Scots pine, thermally modified Norway spruce, and three reference wood substrates, and exposed outdoors for 8 years to evaluate their ability to resist surface moulds and blue stain fungi, cracking and flaking. The test was carried out according to EN 927-3. After 8 years mould growth, cracking and flaking mainly varied with type of coating where the tendency was that a waterborne system had the lowest rating for both mould growth, cracking and flaking. Oil/thermally modified treated pine had the lowest mould rating of the modified substrates. Acetylated pine had a decrease in mould rating from year 4 to year 8 when coated with the best coating system and a very small increase when coated with the second best system. Acetylated pine tended to have less flaking than the other modified substrates. Furthermore, acetylated pine, thermally modified pine and thermally modified spruce tended to have the least cracking of the modified wood substrates.
