| The ecological groups (appendix 3 and 4) are defined by biotic and abiotic characteristics, in such a way that the assignment of plant species to ecological groups can be verified by means of direct measurements of the (a)biotic characteristics used. A difference with former subdivisions¹² is the fact that a species can be assigned to more than one ecological group, depending on the ecological amplitudo of the species. The (a)biotic characteristics used are vegetation structure and stage of succession, salinity, substratum, moisture regime, nutrient availability, acidity, dynamics of the ecosystem (sand drift, trampling etc.). Each characteristic has been subdivided in several classes (appendix 1). Combinations of these classes are used to define different... |
