They can be considered potential microrefugia for various species. We investigated the species composition and vegetation pattern of two medium-sized dolines in Hungary before and 10 years after logging, and analysed how different species groups (oak forest species, beech and ravine forest species and disturbance-tolerant species) were affected. The cover and number of oak forest species and disturbance-tolerant species increased, while the cover and number of beech and ravine forest species decreased within dolines due to logging. Therefore, their species composition and vegetation pattern have changed substantially, and dolines have partially lost their capacity to act as safe havens for plant species adapted to cooler conditions.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Acta geographica Slovenica}, author={Kiss, Péter János and Tölgyesi, Csaba and Bóni, Imola and Erdős, László and Vojtkó, András and Maák, István Elek and Bátori, Zoltán}, year={2020}, month={May}, pages={37–48} }
