Old forest structural development drives complexity of nest webs in a naturally disturbed boreal mixedwood forest landscape

Structural complexity generated by forest development processes and tree species compositional changes provide key habitat features for vertebrate communities that rely upon tree size and decay processes for foraging, denning or nesting. Complexity of forest structure in old stands could not only be...
