Fig. 7From: Towards sustainable management of forest residues in the southern Apennine Mediterranean mountain forests: a scenario-based approachBoxplots of the residual carbon index (RCindex 10−1) for each of the four forest residues release scenarios. In the baseline scenario, 100% of forest residues are released upon the forest floor of the logging site (forest parcel). In the three decreasing scenarios, the volume of residues released progressively decrease from 70%, 50%, and 30%. Boxplots are ordered by increasing value of soil organic carbon stock (SOCS)Back to article page
