  1. SC: site condition (humid, mesic), PH: post-harvest period (< 10, 10–20, > 20 years), Total: all three species, SP: species (Na: N. alpina, No: N. obliqua, Nd: N. dombeyi), SD: stump diameter (< 40, 40–60, > 60 cm). GLM: linear mixed effect model, GLMMs: generalized linear-mixed effect model, LR: logistic regression, ns: not significant, *p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001, –: not analysed
