摘要: In human-dominated regions, forest vegetation removal impacts remaining ecosystems but regional-scale biological consequences and resource value changes are not well known. Using survey data, I examined current bottomland hardwood community types a range of fragment size classes in the south central United States. Analyses indicators, appraised tree-based flood zone shade tolerance indices, identified potential processes. Findings revealed that largest fragments had fewer tree species, reduced anthropogenic use evidence, more older wetter than small fragments. Results also suggested need for incorporating hydrologic, geomorphic, understory parameters regional monitoring efforts. Two processes hypothesized: (1) fragmentation occurs frequently drier habitats dry (inundated ≤ 2 months annually), younger seral stage types; (2) induces establishment or zone, serai types. Both hypotheses suggest survival distinct types, uses, multiple values.
