Maps of species' distributions or habitat suitability are required for many aspects of
environmental research, resource management and conservation planning. These include …

A new dataset of ecological indicator values for species, subspecies and some varieties,
hybrids and infrageneric species groups has been compiled for the vascular flora of the …

Ellenberg indicator values for moisture, nitrogen and soil reaction were correlated with
measured soil and vegetation parameters. Relationships were studied through between …

This book provides comprehensive single source coverage of bioindication/biomonitoring in

A species' ecological niche depends on the species' adaptations to its present habitat, but
also on the legacy from its ancestors. Most authors argue that such a phylogenetic niche …

Summary 1 Disturbances and resource availability are key factors affecting plant diversity in
managed forests. As disturbance regimes vary among silvicultural systems and may …

Thirty-one meadows were investigated within five sites representing various farming styles
