Spatiotemporal dynamics and key climatic influences on vegetation resilience in opencast coal mine dumps after restoration by Hui Wang, Chengye Zhang, Yaxin Ding, Feiyue Li, Wanxi Liu, Yan Ma, Yingjie Guo, Bikram Banerjee, Jun Li

“…Results reveal that: (1) After restoration, vegetation resilience at each dump experienced three phases: initial enhancement, decline, and renewed enhancement. (2) Vegetation resilience improved significantly compared to the initial fragile ecosystem, with over 88 % of the area showing improvement, especially at Taipingdi, where the enhancement rate reached 99.85 %. (3) The influence of key climatic drivers remained consistent within each dump across all phases, particularly in the first and third phases. …”
