Woodland biodiversity loss
New research is showing that some English woodlands are becoming homogenised, with a subsequent loss in biodiversity. Sally Keith a researcher at Centre for Ecology and Hydrology has looked at records of some 65 woods surveyed in the 1930s. She found that although the number of species were similar, they are less distinctive today. Pollution and changes in management are blamed.
