Overstorey dynamics controls plant diversity in age-class temperate forests
Original language description
Forest management is widely considered to have an impact on the understorey plant diversity, which is essential for sustainable forestry and nature conservation. However, contradictions among previous large-scale studies and meta-analyses raised the need for better-designed research. Such research should identify drivers controlling diversity and species composition, quantify the overstorey-understorey relationships and their dynamics in the temperate forests. Two spatial scales (2,25 m(2), 314 m(2)) and stratified random sampling design were used to record under storey vegetation and overstorey and environmental properties along the whole lifecycle of managed Norway spruce (108 years) and European beech (140 years) stands, the most wide-spread mountain forest types in European temperate zone. The dataset also includes primeval fir-beech forests located in the same area.Forest management significantly altered understorey diversity and species composition in both beech and spruce stands.
