The amplitude of dead wood resource pulses produced by plantation thinning mediates the assembly of wood‐boring beetles

The commercial thinning of forests creates a dead wood resource pulse in the form of tree tops, branches, and stumps that are used by many organisms as a substrate but are also increasingly coveted as a source of bioenergy. To evaluate the effects of commercial thinning, as well as those of woody debris ( WD ) harvest, retention or supplementation on communities of cerambycids (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), a family of saprophagous wood‐boring...
