📅 Published: 2022
🔍 Abstract: This study investigates how woody seedlings adapt over time to shading and watering treatments following topsoil translocation in the dry-hot karst region of China. The research highlights that both light availability and water management are critical to seedling survival and growth in such restored ecosystems. It provides insights into the best practices for vegetation restoration in degraded karst landscapes, especially concerning seedling species selection and microclimate regulation.
