About this title

Synopsis

This book fulfills the long-felt need for a modern manual of techniques of vegetation description and analysis. The approach is deliberately non-mathematical with an emphasis on the practical and ecological aspects of the subject. Methods are clearly and simply explained and are demonstrated using a wide range of case studies together with many illustrations, diagrams, and tables to aid comprehension. A particular feature of the book is a detailed introduction to computer methods for the analysis of vegetation data and the availability of a disk of programs for personal computers from the authors to complement the text. This book will be essential for field and practical work in quantitative plant ecology and will be invaluable to advanced students, researchers, and lecturers in ecology, biogeography, environmental science, botany, agriculture, forestry, and biological conservation.
