Natural colonization in abandoned agricultural fields benefits native, insect-pollinated and bird-dispersed woody species by N.K. Pedersen, S. Kepfer-Rojas, T. Riis-Nielsen, V.K. Johannsen, I.K. Schmidt

“…We analyzed tree and shrub species richness and composition in 31 natural colonization areas on agricultural land abandoned between 1990 and 2018 in Denmark and compared them with forest plantations of similar ages registered in the National Forest Inventory (NFI). As proxies for overall biodiversity, we compared the dominance and distribution of native, insect-pollinated, and bird-dispersed species. …”

Estimation of stand biomass and species-specific biomass in Japanese northern mixed forests in 1920–1930s: Understanding environmental factors affecting carbon sequestration before... by Ai Obata, Toshiya Yoshida, Tsutom Hiura

“…In this study, we used forest inventory and environmental data (480 plots, 467 ha in total) from 1929 to 1938 in northern mixed forests in Japan (1) to estimate the biomass of the forest at that time, (2) to determine the environmental factors (temperature, precipitation, topographic wetness index, solar radiation, geology) affecting the AGB and species-specific biomass and (3) to estimate the relationship between AGB and diversity, structural equation models were used to determine whether the relationships are significant. …”
