Hello,
I want an ecological explanation: H' and E are theoretically kept in stable assemblages, so stable ecosystems.
I worked in disturbed areas affected by desertification, but planted with different species like prickly pear, pine and olive trees.
In these plantations, H and E have automatically increased in spring (increase therophytes after rain).
My question is: can we speak of a balanced plant assemblage in a degraded environment, disturbed even if planted because the H' and E are elevated?
Thank you.
