Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims at clarifying the role of landslides in forming vegetation structure and floral diversity in Japanese mountain regions. Landscape-level studies show that snow and bedrock conditions are important for keeping diverse vegetation types including wetlands, mesic meadows, and shrubs. Watershed-level studies show that vegetation structure is affected by landslide age as well as disturbance regimes created by past landslides.
