General Conclusion. . 330 $aThis open access book presents and analyzes the results of more than 30 years of long-term ecological research in riparian forest ecosystems with the aim of casting light on changes in the dynamics of riparian forests over time. The research, focusing on the Ooyamazawa riparian forest, one of the remaining old-growth forests in Japan, has yielded a number of interesting outcomes. First, it shows that large-scale disturbances afford various trees opportunities for regeneration and are thus the driving force for the coexistence of canopy trees in riparian forests. Second, it identifies changes in reproductive patterns, highlighting that seed production has in fact quantitatively increased over the past two decades. Third, it describes the decline in forest floor vegetation caused by deer grazing and reveals how this decline has affected bird and insect populations. The book illustrates the interconnectedness of phenomena within an ecosystem and the resultant potential for cascade effects and also stresses the need for long-term ecological studies of climate change impacts on forests. It will be of interest to both professionals and academics in the field of forest science. . 410 0$aEcological Research Monographs,$x2191-0707 606 $aForest ecology 606 $aRiparian forests 606 $aEcologia forestal$2thub 606 $aZones humides$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 610 $aEcology 610 $aForestry 610 $aPlant Ecology 610 $aEcosystems 610 $aEnvironment, general 610 $aRiparian Ecology 610 $aEnvironmental Sciences 610 $aChanges in forest vegetation 610 $aLong-term ecological research 610 $aLife history of trees 610 $aRiparian forest 610 $aNatural disturbance 610 $aMasting behavior 610 $aForest decline 610 $aEcological science, the Biosphere 610 $aForestry & silviculture: practice & techniques 610 $aBotany & plant sciences 610 $aThe environment 615 0$aForest ecology. 615 0$aRiparian forests. 615 7$aEcologia forestal 615 7$aZones humides 676 $a577 700 $aSakio$b Hitoshi$4edt$01357051 702 $aSakio$b Hitoshi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404249103321 996 $aLong-term ecosystem changes in riparian forests$93362380 997 $aUNINA
