“…Yet, uneven-aged stands have been successfully developed with shadeintolerant species with few cohorts (1 to 4) [52][53][54]. Several studies compare and discuss even and uneven-aged stands of maritime pine [55][56][57]. Uneven-aged stands of maritime pine are frequently originated from natural regeneration, whether as pure [22,42,47,58] or mixed stands [23,24,59,60].…”

Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Aiton) is a forest tree species with a high representation in southwestern European countries, in particular Portugal, Spain, and France. The species traits and their flexibility and plasticity are of importance both for timber and to the sustainability of the forest systems. Extensive research has been made on the maritime pine systems and productions. The aim of this study is to review the state-of-the art on the knowledge of the species, their forest systems, and their productions, to identify vulnerabilities and to summarize tools to help its management. The specific objectives of this review are: i) characterizing maritime pine, its distribution, genetic material and provenances, the biotic and abiotic disturbances, the diversity and sustainability of its forest systems; (ii) its management, encompassing the silvicultural systems and practices; (iii) to list existing growth models, simulators and decision support systems; and (iv) present information on wood technology, including sylvotechnology, wood properties, and their use.

“…For Spain, there are PINASTER (Soalleiro et al, 1994;Soalleiro, 1995) for even-aged stands in Galicia and the model developed by Diéguez-Aranda et al (2009), included in the GesMO platform. Orois & Soalleiro (2002) proposed a model that applies to mixed stands. The platform SIMANFOR (Bravo et al, 2010), not being a model, integrates a set of modules for simulating and projecting stand conditions in Central Spain.…”

Pine forest plantations of Pinus pinaster Ait. and P. sylvestris L. located in Galicia, NW Spain, were selected to study the 13C/12C‐isotopic fingerprint in wood core samples in order to find possible relationships between the δ13C at natural abundance levels and the quality of the standing tree mass. For each pine species, 24 forests growing on acidic soils were studied: half developed over granite and half over schists. Two dominant trees from each plot, corresponding to all possible combinations of forest stands with high or low site index and with adults or young trees, were drilled at the basal part of trunks using a Pressler drill to obtain tree ring samples. The C‐isotopic compositions of the litter and the soil organic matter from different soil depths were also determined and statistically significant correlations between these values and the 13C content of the wood were observed. Despite internal variations due to the influence of site index, tree age and parent material, the isotopic fingerprint of P. pinaster wood (mean value δ13C = −26.2 ± 0.8‰) significantly differed (P < 0.001) from that of P. sylvestris (mean value δ13C = −24.6 ± 0.7‰). Relationships between the quality of the stand and the C‐isotopic composition of the wood were observed, high quality stands having trees more 13C‐depleted than low quality ones. A high correlation between wood δ13C and site index values for P. pinaster stands (r = −0.667, P < 0.001) was found, this correlation being even clearer when only P. pinaster growing over schists (r = −0.833, P < 0.001) are considered. Again, the correlation between the site index and the wood δ13C of young P. pinaster trees is higher when plots over granite or schists are separately considered. A similar fact occurs for adult P. sylvestris trees from schists stands, high quality specimens being 13C‐depleted compared with low quality ones. On the other hand, 13C natural abundance of wood from P. sylvestris trees seems to be also strongly influenced by the underlying parent material, young trees from granite stands having a statistically higher 13C‐isotopic composition (P < 0.05) than young trees from schists stands.
