“…and cover (±SE) of epiphytes on lying tree trunks in the five forest development stages (A, regeneration; B, initial; C, climax; D, over-mature; E, decay stage 2011). Even gaps do not lead to strong changes in the vegetation composition or diversity in near-natural spruce forests (Kirchner et al 2009(Kirchner et al , 2011. Nevertheless, the cover of some frequent herb layer species, including Calamagrostis villosa, Vaccinium myrtillus and Trientalis europaea, was found to decrease with gap age (Kirchner et al 2011).…”

“…In addition, we measured a test area of 25 m 2 of several prominent sections of rail tracks and streets that were available in all four datasets and found a mean variation of area of 20.3%. Secondly, we evaluated gap sizes using GPS ground measurements from 2007 (Kirchner et al, 2009). To ensure that the error was not biased by gap formation of the last 4 yrs, only gap sizes were used where no recent gap creation was visible.…”

“…Thus, gaps were not defined as being completely devoid of trees, but in accordance with Runkle (1982) as being populated with young trees up to 5 m, which roughly equaled a quarter of the average height of canopy trees (20.5 m, n = 227; Kathke and Bruelheide, 2010). The sizes of the selected gaps ranged between 131 and 16,400 m 2 , with a significantly positive correlation of gap size with light (Kirchner et al, 2009). Thus, light intensity was included as covariate in the analyses.…”
