Buffer zones for biodiversity of plants and arthropods: is there a compromise on width?

Model 12 Generalised linear mixed model for describing the effect of buffer width and distance to hedge taking buffer widths and distances as continuous variables.

Model 12 Generalised linear mixed model for describing the effect of buffer width and distance to hedge taking buffer widths and distances as continuous variables.

The estimated number of weeds when excluding buffer zone zero could be approximated by simple equation such as the following:
