Dear deadwoodologists I'm sometimes asked by colleagues what exactly I mean by coarse woody debris, especially by people looking to pick holes in estimates of...
Simon, I agree, it would be great to have standards. There are some in British Columbia, Canada, I believe. I'll try to dig them up - or maybe someone over...
To answer Daniel Koechli - in British Columbia CWD is defined as being > 7.5 cm in diameter and as we measure to the nearest 0.1 cm, a piece has to be 7.6 cm...

There are 2 issues associated with a minimum standard. One is what we measure and one is how we report it. If we all measure the same then there is no problem...
Most interesting, John! I had no idea that fire was the reason to start CWD inventories. Is that the reason why CWD includes generally only downed (& more or...
Deadwoodologists I find that nearly all the papers I've seen reporting on the methodology for measuring CWD decay rates use a "mass loss" approach, i.e. record...
Fire behaviour researchers were measuring "woody fuel" before it became more generally known as Coarse Woody Debris. The fact that we still call it "debris"...
