Under-canopy afforestation after 10 years: assessing the potential of converting monoculture plantations into mixed stands
Under-canopy afforestation using different tree species is a key approach in close-to-nature management to improve the structural and functional stability of plantation forests. However, current research on understory afforestation mainly focuses on the seedling stage, with limited attention to sapl...
