Irregular silviculture positively influences multiple bat species in a lowland temperate broadleaf woodland
Author: Alder, D.C., Poore, A., Norrey, J., Newson, S.E. & Marsden, S.J.
Published: 2020
Changes in woodland management have been linked to declines in birds and other wildlife but we know little about the impacts of such changes on our bat populations. All 17 of the bat species found breeding in the UK use woodlands and many are reliant on semi-natural broadleaved woodland. Because of the increasing pressures on our woodlands and their bat populations it is essential that we improve our understanding of how different types of woodland management affect their use by bats.
