Temperate calcareous grasslands are characterized by high levels of species richness at small spatial scales. Nevertheless, many from a habitat‐specific regional pool may be absent local communities and represent the ‘dark diversity’ these sites. Here we investigate dry in northern Europe to determine what proportion is realized scales (i.e. how community completeness varies) which mechanisms contributing relative sizes observed dark diversity. We test whether absence particular potentially...
The vegetation databank established by our working group covers the classes FestucoBrametea. Koelerio-Corynephoretea, and Trifolio-Geranietea sanguinei in Nordic Baltic region. i.e. NE Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland. N Poland. Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia. NW Russia. We aim to use these data develop a consistent supra-national phy~ tosociological classification of xerothermic types study area analyse their biodiversity patterns. Up now, we located some 12,500 releves meeting...
Abstract Using gradient analysis and indicator values, it was revealed that the main factors of syntaxa differentiation mire communities in South Ural region are acidity mineral composition mire-ground waters, variability habitat moisture thermo-climatic factors. To a lesser extent, ordination vegetation depends on general habitats light factor. The identified nine groups ordered axes ecological characterized by formations species. They have clear differences floristic reflect specific...
A new typology of mesic and xeromesic meadow vegetation in the Southern Boreal zone Karelia is introduced based on contemporary conditions modern multivariate methodological approaches. The main differentiating environmental factors are identified. Currently they include soil nitrogen pool, moisture particle size. Generally, importance two to three times higher than region-wide due intensive anthropogenic pressure second half 20 th century. Four consolidated associations defined, each...
