Can high-resolution topography and forest canopy structure substitute microclimate measurements? Bryophytes say no
Increasingly available high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) facilitate the use of
fine-scale topographic variables as proxies for microclimatic effects not captured by the …

Environmental drivers of the forest regeneration in temperate mixed forests
As modern silviculture in natural forests is based on natural regeneration, finding the most
important drivers of regeneration is crucial for forestry as well as conservation. We explored …

Landscape-scale mixtures of tree species are more effective than stand-scale mixtures for biodiversity of vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens
Tree species diversity can positively affect the multifunctionality of forests. This is why conifer
monocultures of Scots pine and Norway spruce, widely promoted in Central Europe since …
