Abstract

Dolines are local depressions of karst surfaces. They can be considered potential microrefugia for various species. We investigated the species composition and vegetation pattern of two medium-sized dolines in Hungary before and 10 years after logging, and analysed how different species groups (oak forest species, beech and ravine forest species and disturbance-tolerant species) were affected. The cover and number of oak forest species and disturbance-tolerant species increased, while the cover and number of beech and ravine forest species decreased within dolines due to logging. Therefore, their species composition and vegetation pattern have changed substantially, and dolines have partially lost their capacity to act as safe havens for plant species adapted to cooler conditions.

集约采伐对岩溶线为冷适应植物提供潜在微避难所能力的影响

多洛线是喀斯特表面的局部洼地。它们可以被认为是各种物种潜在的微避难所。研究了匈牙利2个中型林地采伐前和采伐后10年的物种组成和植被格局，分析了不同类群(栎林种、山毛榉和沟壑林种和抗扰种)的受影响程度。林地内栎林和耐扰树种的盖度和数量增加，山毛榉林和沟谷林的盖度和数量减少。因此，它们的物种组成和植被格局发生了实质性的变化，并且在一定程度上失去了作为适应较冷条件的植物物种安全避难所的能力。

期刊介绍： Acta geographica Slovenica publishes original research papers from all fields of geography and related disciplines, and provides a forum for discussing new aspects of theory, methods, issues, and research findings, especially in Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe. The review accepts original research papers and review papers. Papers presenting new developments and innovative methods in geography are welcome. Submissions should address current research gaps and explore state-of-the-art issues. Research based on case studies should have the added value of transnational comparison and should be integrated into established or new theoretical and conceptual frameworks. The target readership is researchers, policymakers, students, and others who are studying or applying geography at various levels. Submissions are accepted in English or Slovenian.
