Short-term avian responses to experimental variable-density thinning: Initial stand attributes outweigh effects of management in Austral temperate rainforests
Forest Ecology and Management(2021)
Abstract
•Bird abundance and richness varied across two secondary Austral Temperate forest types.•Individual body condition of a frugivorous species was better in mixed-evergreen than in Nothofagus forests.•Initial stand attributes outweighed short-term effects of Variable Density Thinnings for birds in these forests.•In geographical regions with a high tree diversity restoration thinnings should explicitly target tree composition.
