Phylogenetic clustering of tree communities decreases with stand age and environmental quality along a mineland rehabilitation chronosequence

Continuous systematic monitoring is necessary to measure the success or failure of mineland rehabilitation. Here, we aimed to outline how measures of phylogenetic diversity and phylogenetic community structure complement existing monitoring frameworks along a waste pile rehabilitation chronosequence...
