High plant species richness indicates management-related disturbances rather than the conservation status of forests (2013, background): “…herb species may be divided into “typical” forest pecies, which have been suggested to indicate naturalness f forests, and others which are light-demanding and usully grow in open habitats, indicating disturbances in forests Bierzychudek 1982; Schmidt 2005; Schmidt, Kriebitzsch, & wald 2011).”
Canopy effects on vegetation caused by harvesting and regeneration treatments (2010, background): “species richness (Schmidt 2005; Barbier et al. 2008).”
