Other land use influences, such as fertilization or grazing (Chisté et al. 2016, Ecosph & Chisté et al. 2018, Oecol), can have an effect on the calculated area. Other area maintenance, such as the use of conditioners (Hecker et al. 2022, J Insect Conserv) or maintenance measures such as rolling and leveling (Berger et al. 2024, Ecol Appl) might also play a role. Due to missing data, these parameters could not be taken into account here. However, for example, variables such as mowing frequency can account for fertilisation.
