Development and landscaping choices differentiate heterogenous tree and shrub communities on office developments

2019-04-17

Abstract excerpt

In urban ecosystems, woody vegetation communities and the ecosystem functions and habitat they provide are largely controlled by humans. These communities are assembled during development, landscaping, and maintenance processes according to decisions made by human actors. While vegetation communities on residential land uses are increasingly well studied, these efforts have generally not extended to other and uses...
