• The importance of host tree age, size and growth rate as determinants of epiphytic lichen diversity in boreal spruce forests (2009, background): “…the scale of the single tree, variables like tree species, branch quality, bark texture, tree size and tree age have been shown to significantly explain variation in epiphytic species composition and diversity (Holien 1997; Kuusinen 1996; Gauslaa et al. 1998; Löbel et al. 2006; Fritz et al. 2009).”
