Résumé : |
"Against the common trend in European forests, we found a significant increase in mean species richness, especially in plots with relatively low nutrient content. While the total pool of species has not consistently increased, we found a strong increase in plot‐scale species richness of woody and herbaceous species. This overall increase and the slight decrease in the proportion of species typical of open habitats were probably driven by a decrease in light availability caused by less intensive management. Our results demonstrate that fine‐scale spatial environmental heterogeneity positively affects species richness. In contrast to recently reported findings, we found a decrease in the number of species with increasing nutrient content." |
