description | Ecological restoration of forest in desertified lands, where the soil has been seriously damaged by erosion, is a long-term process. Understanding this process requires an exhaustive analysis of the forest structure, composition and function, and the actions necessary to reach the appropriate ecosystem. We analyzed a fifty year-old hydrology-forest restoration in central Spain, using an ecological forest restoration framework with phases of forest cover rehabilitation and subsequent monitoring and follow-up. Although full recovery the previously existing oak forest is still a longer-term goal, the short-term establishment of a pine forest has helped to restore ecosystem function and to mitigate serious erosion problems. The establishment of pine forest allowed progress in reconstituting the soil, introducing native oak seedlings, and regulating the hydrological cycle. |

La restauración ecológica de un bosque en un terreno desertificado y afectado por erosión grave es un proceso a largo plazo, que requiere un exhaustivo análisis de la estructura, composición y funcionamiento del bosque, y las actuaciones que lo dirijan hacia el ecosistema objetivo. Se ha analizado una restauración hidrológico-forestal de 50 años de antigüedad, en el centro de España, utilizando un esquema ecológico de restauración forestal, que comprende fundamentalmente una fase de rehabilitación de la cubierta forestal y otra de seguimiento. Aunque falta mucho tiempo aún para la recuperación del robledal-encinar natural, mediante el establecimiento de un bosque de pinos se ha conseguido la rehabilitación del ecosistema, lo que implica que se han solucionado casi totalmente los graves problemas de erosión en un corto periodo, y se ha actuado positivamente sobre los procesos edafogenéticos, en la reintroducción natural de brinzales de encina y roble, así como en la regularización del ciclo hidrológico.
