It uses original field sampling and advanced numerical data analysis to examine three major types of forest - Albany Coastal Forests, Pondoland Coastal Scarp and Eastern Scarp - all of which are of high conservation value. Offering a unique and systematic assessment of South African ecology in unprecedented detail, the book could serve as a model for future vegetation surveys of forests not only in Africa, but also around the globeSummary: 1.Introduction: Rationale and Objectives -- 2.Materials and Methods: How to Survey Forests? -- 3.Legacy Data: Some Data-analytical Experiments -- 4.Classification of the Albany Coastal Forests -- 5.Classification of the Pondoland Scarp Forests -- 6.Classification of the Eastern Scarp Forests -- 7.Modelling of Forest-Environmental Relationships -- 8.Lessons for a Forest Vegetation SurveyPPN: PPN: 1658624327Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-EES | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXEE
