Drivers of plant species composition in siliceous spring ecosystems: groundwater chemistry, catchment traits or spatial factors?
Spring water reflects the hydrochemistry of the aquifer in the associated catchments. On dense siliceous bedrock, the nearsurface groundwater flow is expected to be closely related to the biogeochemical processes of forest ecosystems, where the impact of land use is also low. We hypothesize that the...
