Abstract: We present the plans for a comprehensive, national dry grassland database for Germany, in which Abstract vegetation-plot records from different databases will be collected. These data will particularly be used for a plot-based, consistent classification of dry grassland vegetation in Germany. The results of the classification project will then be published in a special feature contribution to Applied Vegetation Science and in the series Synopsis der Pflanzengesellschaften Deutschlands. We warmly invite persons who have dry grassland relevés to participate in this project by contributing data and/or helping with data analysis. |
