Driving factors behind the eutrophication signal in understorey plant communities of deciduous temperate forests (2012, background): “The increased input (andmaybe also reduced removal) of litter and the increasing importance of species with faster decompos- ing litter is likely to have increased the general nutrient avail- ability in the studied forests (cf. Dzwonko & Gawronski 2002; Hofmeister et al. 2009).”
The effects of stand structure on ground-floor bryophyte assemblages in temperate mixed forests (2009, background): “Conifer saplings are fewer because of forest soil eutrophization, due to the lack of traditional litter removal from forests (see also Dzwonko and Gawroński 2002).”
Using experimental manipulation to assess the roles of leaf litter in the functioning of forest ecosystems (2005, background): “Raking damage also accounts for lower ground cover in raked plots relative to controls despite the more frequent colonisation of raked plots by small-seeded species (Dzwonko & Gawronski, 2002a, b).”
