Abstract

A Marteloscopeis an educational tool for silvicultural and forest management training. The availability of actual stand data on mobile devices (tablets) in combination with the appropriate software allows direct feedback among silvicultural decisions and the resulting economic and ecological outcomes. Through this Teaching Innovation Project, we have gone further on this approach by designing and implementing, for the first time, a Marteloscopein a cork oak stand managed for cork production. As a result, we have set up a permanent training plot in the forest, where all trees have been geolocated, measured, both in size and cork production features, marked and also assessed for their ecological value through microhabitat identification approach. We have developed new software for pc or tablets to simulate in real-time silvicultural and cork stripping exercises made by the user, producing instantaneous outputs showing the effects on cork production and forest stand, both currently and after 9 years period (duration of debarking rotation). This simulation facilitates realistic learning of cork oak stands management practices and the understanding of the effects of management decisions on productive and ecological dynamics of forest stand.
