Tree species diversity change in natural regeneration of a beech forest under different management
Original language description
Biodiversity is deemed to play an important role in adaptation of forest ecosystems to climate change. However, there is ongoing research to determine if the best way to preserve or increase biodiversity is through leaving forest ecosystems to their natural-developmen t. In this study we investigated how forest management can in?uence tree species diversity in a natura l regenerating beech-dominated forest ecosystem. For this purpose, long-term research plots were established in 1989 to simulate different intensities of cutting intervention (i ncluding clear-cut) in mature forest stands. The natural regeneration was surveye d ?ve times during the period between 2002 and 2012, 14–24 years after the initi al cuttin g. In addition to forest density, tree species and diversity indices (Hill E5 and Shannon H0) were used to quantify diversity and temporal change. Results show that management can impact development and diversity of natural regeneration, but this varied with management intensity. On
