Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Thinning and forest floor removal decreased the total number of vascular plant species in 2015.
- Intervention effect The number of vascular plant species bounced back to the original number in 2016 even after grazing.
- Intervention effect A dramatic decrease in the number of vascular plant species followed the second forest floor removal and 3 months of grazing in 2017.
- Intervention effect The number of flora slightly increased after the fallow of grazing in 2019 but did not fully recover.
- Intervention effect The composition of the flora in 2019 was significantly changed compared with the forest without disturbance in 2014.
- Observation Naturalized plants such as Taraxacum officinale and Barbarea vularis invaded the area.
- Intervention effect The coverage of naturalized plants expanded after thinning and grazing.
- Observation Five valuable rare species were lost from the area.
- Observation Scopolia japonica and Streptopus ovalis were lost from the area.
- Observation The ground condition of the area was severely damaged and plants no longer grow in some areas.
- Association Forest grazing practices had adverse effects on rare plants in Daegwallyeong.
- Recommendation Forest grazing practices should be carefully conducted to preserve vulnerable plant species.
