Reforestation Under Climate Change-A Cross-Regional Deadwood Retention Experiment to Develop Multifunctional Forests on Disturbed Norway Spruce Areas.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Extreme events such as droughts, heatwaves, storms, and the associated intensification of bark beetle outbreaks in Norway spruce forests in recent years have led to large-scale forest loss in Central Europe. Various options for post-disturbance management exist, from complete clearing to no intervention, but their pros and cons in the context of multifunctional forest management remain unresolved. The interdisciplinary "ResEt-Fi" project ("Pioneering reforestation: Regional management for establishing multifunctional forests on post-disturbed Norway spruce areas") comprises a cross-regional field trial to test how specific practices of deadwood retention affect the ecological conditions and subsequent reforestation of natural and artificial regeneration. It aims at generating climate-stable mixed forests, balancing ecosystem functioning and socio-economic benefits. Rather than presenting a conventional empirical study with finalized results, we reflect upon an integrated and transferable research framework for investigating post-disturbance forest management across spatial scales. We present the rationale behind different deadwood management strategies, the nested experimental design of the cross-regional field trial, the ecological response framework, upscaling approaches, and future perspectives. Based on this scientific foundation, evidence-based recommendations and application scenarios can be developed to support forest managers and other stakeholders in selecting site-specific post-disturbance management strategies.
