Quercus and Pinus Cover Are Determined by Landscape Structure and Dynamics in Peri-Urban Mediterranean Forest Patches

Successional dynamics in Mediterranean forests have been modulated by anthropogenic disturbances during thousands of years, especially in areas densely populated since ancient times. Our objective is to determine whether pine tree cover (early-successional species) and oak tree cover (late-successio...
