1/ 🌳 New research from the WrEN project reveals that larger and structurally complex woodland creation sites offer greater benefits for woodland plants! 🌱 Main findings below! 👇
Are woodland plants 🌻colonising newly created woodlands 🌳? 👇 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/26…
And here is a link to the paper besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/26…
‘Are woodland plants 🌻colonising newly created woodlands🌳?’ See poster at @UK_Treescapes conference in Glasgow with a journal paper on the way. You can also keep up to date on the benefits of woodland creation for biodiversity @ wren-project.com

🌳 Land managers, what are your views on expanding tree cover? Fill in our online survey to help inform our research: 📢 ow.ly/SuzO50Qk6RJ This will help inform research focused on tree cover expansion through #TreePlanting and #NaturalColonisation. @StirUni @reheatRT
@watts_km The @NERCscience @UK_Treescapes project ‘TreE_PlaNat’ is exploring the use of both #TreePlanting & #NaturalColonisation (and mixes of both) to create new forests 🌳 @natcolonisation naturalcolonisation.co.uk
