• Multiple successional pathways and precocity in forest development: can some forests be born complex? (2012, background): “Structural complexity – heterogeneity in canopy architecture, stem size and live and dead biomass – is linked to several major ecosystem functions (Spies & Franklin 1991) and is used as a surrogate indicator for bio- diversity (McElhinny et al. 2006).”
