Topographic gradient influences vascular epiphyte occurrence in a small watershed covered by a mature coniferous/broadleaf evergreen mixed forest in Japan

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 35, Issue 3, May/June 2024.
We tested the hypothesis that the horizontal epiphyte occurrence at fine scales is influenced more by topographic gradients related to abiotic factors than by host tree size and species. The epiphyte occurrence probability increased toward the valley bottom and on larger host trees; it also varied among host tree species.
