Remote sensing forest monitoring

Past landscape configuration as legacies in forest structure and composition

Recent studies show that forests resulting from recent land-use abandonment are growing more than pre-existing forests. Since these areas are likely to have greater soil fertility, this may be masking the diversity-productivity relationship that has been observed in other forest ecosystems but not in Spanish forests. We use historical land-cover maps and information from NFI to test these hypotheses, amd to assess how past landscape configuration may be still noticeable as legacies in forest structure and composition
