- Method / resource A continuous Restoration Intensity Index (RII) was proposed and evaluated with vegetation data from 77 restored grasslands in Germany.
- Association The RII was positively correlated with overall and target plant species richness and Hill-Shannon diversity.
- Association Species introduction quality, through seed origin and seed composition, was a key component promoting total and target plant species richness.
- Association Species introduction quality was a key component increasing the proportion of forb cover.
- Association Time since restoration intervention did not influence grassland recovery, except in interaction with site preparation intensity.
