  3. 3. Poplar for biodiversity? : comparison of lichen communities in stands of Balsam poplar, Hybrid larch, Silver birch and Norway spruce

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Ewa Zuzanna Jastrzebska; [2020]
    Keywords : Poplar; Populus trichocarpa; lichen; biodiversity; epiphytic lichen; Norway spruce; Hybrid larch; Silver birch; Sweden;

    Abstract : Due to increasing interest in the use of non-native tree species, more knowledge is needed concerning their effects on biodiversity. In this context, epiphytic lichens were investigated in two stands of non-native tree species (Larix×eurolepis and Populus trichocarpa) and two stands of native tree species (Picea abies and Betula pendula) in a field experiment in southern Sweden.

    Keywords : pollinators; Lepidoptera; moth; transmission line; assemblage structure; Noctuoidea; Geometridae;

    Abstract : Biodiversity and pollinators are declining all over the world, and a factor thought to cause this decline is destruction of natural habitats. One new way that has been discussed in an effort to try to mitigate the effects of declining habitats is to understand and use novel habitats, which are habitats created when, for example, building roads, railways, and power lines.
