V. ASSESSMENT BY RESTORATION UNITS

V.3. FUNCTIONS & PROCESSES
1. Are there significant amounts of dead wood present in varying stages of decomposition? 
- Snags
- Down logs
YES Not significant
2. Average organic horizon thickness (cm):
0 
3. Soil surface conditions:
Bare soil (%):
50 
Degree of soil sealing/crusting:
YES None
- Slight
- Moderate
- Severe
Presence of significant patchy or continuous biological crust?
No
4. Erosion/accumulation type
YES None
- Sheet erosion
- Rill erosion
- Gully erosion
- Badlands
- Accumulation
- Wind erosion/deposition
- Others:  
5. Erosion/accumulation intensity
YES Nil
- Slight
- Medium
- Moderate
- Severe
- Extreme
6. Stand dynamics
Succesional dynamics measured or observed
1º 2º 3º 4º 5º
a.- Since the project implementation: Quercus coppice  Quercus stand       
b.- Of non-restored reference area nearby during the same period:  Quercus coppice         
7. Did any relevant disturbance, such as fire, severe drought/frost, floods, pollution event, etc, affect the restored unit since project implementation?
- Yes
YES No
- Partly
If yes, please indicate the disturbance regime and regeneration pattern(s): 
 
8. Disturbance regime
Disturbance type/s Date/s (year/s)

9. Regeneration pattern following the disturbance
Autosuccesion Relevant composition change Relevant land degradation Describe regeneration pattern
