Description for Alpine Ecosystems in the Northwest Caucasus
hardcover. Describes plant geographical description of the area, syntaxonomy, spatial patterns, floristic richness, structure of plant communities in relation to soil properties and herbivore influence for a mountain region. Seasonal, inter-annual, and long-term dynamics of vegetation are also discussed on the base of long-term observations. Editor(s): Onipchenko, Vladimir G. (Moscow State University). Series: Geobotany.

Plant geographical description of the area, syntaxonomy, spatial patterns, floristic richness, structure of plant communities in relation to soil properties and herbivore influence were described for a mountain region that is difficult to access. Seasonal, inter-annual, and long-term dynamics of vegetation are discussed on the base of long-term observations as well as pollen and phytolith analyses. Population biology of alpine plants is studied by combination of field observations and mathematical modelling. Plant population strategies and soil seed banks are described for alpine plants from several communities. Results of long-term ecological experiments (plant reciprocal transplantations, dominant removals, light limitation) showed the ... Read more
