Natural and human-impacted diversity of bryophytes along an elevational gradient on an oceanic island (La Palma, Canarias).
Bryophytes have been proposed as ideal indicators of ecosystem change, because they are important components of forest integrity, and considerable research indicates that some groups are sensitive to the changes associated with specific human disturbances. Bryophyte richness and abundance have been...
