Legacy of historical litter raking in temperate forest plant communities
Original language description
QuestionEuropean temperate forests have been managed for millennia, and this management has left a long-lasting legacy in soil chemistry and plant species composition and diversity. One of the most common practices was the raking of leaf litter, which was used as bedding for farm animals. We asked, what is the legacy of historical litter raking for contemporary forest plant communities? LocationCzech Republic. MethodsWe explored the effect of historical litter raking on species richness and diversity of the forest herbaceous layer. We also tested whether long-term soil acidification and nutrient depletion caused by litter raking were reflected in Ellenberg indicator values for nutrients and soil reaction and in the higher abundance of specialists of acidophilous forest types. We used written historical evidence to identify areas where litter raking was practised in the 19th century. We analysed the differences between vegetation plots located in areas affected and unaffected by the past litter ra
