TL;DR: In this paper, a scenario depicting intensive arable crop cultivation in a homogeneous landscape (lacking habitat structures) was compared to a scenario including short rotation coppice (SRC) cultivation on 20 % of arable land.

TL;DR: For assessment of the quality of biotopes and their sub-biotopes, the numerical proportion between euryoecious and xerophilic grasshoppers was calculated and proved to be an excellent parameter and provided a rapid, well-reproducible, and detailed method to measure the eutrophication of grassland habitats.

TL;DR: The habitat structures of a SRC change as its age increases and the composition of the biocoenoses also changes as a result, and the biodiversity in SRC is enhanced most significantly by the structural richness within the poplar or willow blocks and in the peripheral areas.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an unbiased, authoritative statement on this topic based on a review of relevant scientific literature, quantifying environmental effects of short rotation coppice (SRC) on biodiversity, soil and water.

TL;DR: This presentation introduces the vTI series on SRC and environmental issues, which aims to explain the development of physical resource theory in the context of climate change and sustainable development.
