Description
| - This study aimed to evaluate whether the imposition of mowing would increase the species richness in abandoned meadows in central Europe, where degraded meadows had developed into dominant stands of Carex brizoides and Molinia caerulea. We studied the influence of mowing once a year in July on species composition, number of species, Shannon-Wiener index, abundance of dominant species, total biomass of the stands, biomass of the dominant species, biomass of individual species, and biomass of horizontal 10-cm layers of stands between 1998 and 2007. Molinia caerulea stands showed statistically significant changes in species composition, an increase in the number of species and a decrease in the abundance of dominant species. The total biomass of the stands was not influenced by mowing, but there was a significant decrease in the dominant Molinia caerulea biomass. The total height of the stands was influenced rather by year than by mowing. However, mowing only once a year, but at the peak of the vegetation season (July), seems to be sufficient for initiating changes in species richness. Carex brizoides stands did not show such unambiguous responses. We found only year-to-year changes in species composition. Only a small increase in the abundance of the accompanying species induced by the mowing regime was statistically confirmed; no other parameters showed significant changes. Mowing only once a year was not sufficient to initiate changes in species richness, although the mowing was done at the peak of vegetation season (July) and over a relatively long period of time (10 years).
