What can trait diversity reveal about the sustainability of forest management?

  • What do traits tell us about species responses to environmental change and the resulting impacts for ecosystem function and services?
  • Which forest management practises have the greatest impact on biodiversity, ecosystem function and ecosystem services?

The research student will analyse long-term data sets for biological indicator species (birds, plants or butterflies) to evaluate how changes in biodiversity affect ecosystem function, and which management strategies yield the greatest conservation and ecosystem services benefits.
