| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined the recovery of vegetation in coastal pine forests damaged by the 2011 Tohoku tsunami in Sendai, Japan. Twenty percent of the damaged stands had some patches included high-density natural regenerated pine saplings. We proposed the effective use of these stands for recovering coastal forests, because coastal plants diversity was high in these stands. Moreover, the results of our investigations suggest that the removal of organic substance layer using construction equipments was effective for coastal plants diversity and emergency of pine seedlings in coastal pine forests.
