Dynamic of Plant Composition and Regeneration following Windthrow in a Temperate Beech Forest. [PDF]
Int Sch Res Notices, 2014 The effects of soil pedoturbation (i.e., pit and mound microtopography, PM) on development of herbaceous plant species and woody species regeneration were examined in a temperate beech forest (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) in northern Iran. We recorded the vegetation in 20 pairs of disturbed and adjacent undisturbed plots and established a chronosequence of
