Impact of river management history on the community structure, species composition and nutrient status in the Rhine alluvial hardwood forest [PDF]
The present-day Rhine alluvial hardwood forest (Querco-Ulmetum minoris, Issler 24) in the upper Rhine valley (France/Germany) is comprised of three vegetation units, one still flooded by calm waters (F) and the two others unflooded, one for 30 years ...
