- •
Harvesting old-growth caused persistent declines in eight ecosystem services (ES).
- •
ES recovered along non-linear trajectories and at markedly different timeframes.
- •
Declines in large cedar trees used in aboriginal carving persisted over 212 year.
- •
Long timeframes of ES recovery emphasize a need for conserving remaining old-growth.
