Past and future of the EU-habitat directive species Liparis loeselii in relation to landscape and habitat dynamics in SW-Texel, the Netherlands

Actual and expected presence of L. liparis in dune slacks of different age on SW-Texel. T1-T11 are existing dune slacks, with future presence based on present-day developments in vegetation and soil, and unsuitable habitat conditions 34 years after the start of succession. T15-T20 are expected future dune slacks, based on the current rate of new dune slack formation once every five years. Expected presence of Liparis loeselii in T15-T20 is based on present-day developments in vegetation and soil.100
