Effects of natural and anthropogenic drivers on land‐cover change and treeline dynamics in the Apennines (Italy)

2018-03-01

Abstract excerpt

QUESTIONS: How do climate, topography and human impact affect land‐cover changes, elevation of treelines and dominant tree species composition at multiple spatial scales? LOCATION: Apennine Mountains, Italy. METHODS: At the regional scale (n = 776 municipalities covering 43,000 km²), we assessed the relationship between human demographic processes and forest cover dynamics for the 1990–2012 period using Corine Lan...
