摘要:Communicating about European
forests has to embrace the large diversity
of forest types across the continent.
A new forest type classification
proved to be very valuable in
this context.
··Forest type and site factors strongly
determine the species richness of forest
vegetation. Stand structure and
forest management also influence
the occurrence of epiphytic lichens
and to a lesser extent the plants in
the herb layer.
··High loads of sulphur and nitrogen
deposition are man-made impacts
related to low diversity of herbs and
epiphytic lichens on nearly 100 plots
across Europe. However, this may at
least be partly due to naturally low
species numbers in beech and plantation
forests located in areas with
high deposition.
··Within the BioSoil demonstration
project, large scale representative
forest biodiversity information is
presently collected on over 4 000
Level I plots.
