dc.description.abstract | [EN] Calluna vulgaris-dominated heathlands are a priority habitat type in Annex I of the Habitats
Directive (92/43/ECC, habitat code 4060). In the Iberian Peninsula, the landscape of the Cantabrian
Mountain range has great heterogeneity due to human management during the last 10,000 years.
Another factor that can affect these communities is the increase in human-induced atmospheric
nitrogen (N) deposition. During the last century, there has been a dramatic increase in N deposition
rates. For all these reasons, it is important to know the regeneration dynamics of the heathlands in
the context of the disturbances that these communities currently face (i.e., N deposition, fire, and
decrease in sheep grazing) in the Cantabrian Mountain range. In this study, we characterized the
plant species composition and soil seed bank after prescribed burning in three heathlands on their
southern distribution limit in Spain, to gain insights into regenerative capacity and conservation
of these communities. The results obtained suggest that the post-burn soil seed bank could restore
Calluna-dominated vegetation in these habitats, indicating that the restoration potential from the
soil seed bank after wildfires of these habitats is high. Our results also suggest that, in the short
term after burning, the main characteristic species such as Calluna and Erica are recovered, which is
fundamental to maintain the heathland community structure. | es_ES |
