Uncovers woodland expansion in former agricultural lands, suggesting implications for conservation efforts.
Natural woodland expansion into former agricultural land contributes to conservation and global reforestation goals. However, tree colonisation and woodland persistence depend on interactions among vegetation, land use history, and suitable microclimatic conditions. Understanding these drivers is essential for anticipating woodland expansion outcomes, over large spatial and temporal scales.
