Ecological Monitoring on Changes in Microclimate, Vegetation and Soil Properties after 2 Years in Restoration Project Sites Linking the Ridgeline of Baekdudaegan

Analysis of Microclimate Characteristics of Small Mountain Forest in Korea Using Weather Sensor Array

“…(8) For example, microclimate analyses conducted two years after a restoration project was completed revealed higher mean temperatures and lower RH than in the surrounding forests. (9) Because the forest microclimate affects tree growth, forest restoration should only be performed after ensuring appropriate microclimatic conditions for the area and tree species. (10) Furthermore, the range of microclimates at forest edges varies more than that in the forest center, and it has been shown that forests must maintain a width of ≥40 m to adapt to rapid weather changes.…”
