Biodiversity dynamics of differently managed lowland forests left to spontaneous development in Central Europe

Original language description

European coppice forests covered a large area in historical times and almost 90 % of them were gradually transformed to different forest types during the last century. Recently forest managers across Europe have out more emphasis on increasing biodiversity, which has now a key priority of forest management. The objective of this study was to evaluate the diversity, structure and production of lowland forests left to spontaneous development with different historical management since the 1950s. Our study region were calciphilic beech forests, hornbeam-oak forests and stony colluvial forests in the Cesky kras Protected Landscape Area, Czech Republic. The study period extends over a period of 15 years from 2002 to 2017 and the management systems under consideration were coppice, coppice with standards and high forest. Our main focus was on changes in species composition, structural and total stand diversity separated between tree layer and natural regeneration. The results indicate that during 15 years o
