THE PHYSIOGNOMY OF VEGETATION: A QUANTITATIVE APPROACH TO VEGETATION GEOMETRY BASED UPON THE STRUCTURAL CELL CONCEPT AS THE MINIMUM SAMPLE SIZE, CONCEPTS AND ANALYTICAL METHODS.
Abstract
Contents: The description of the vegetation physiognomy The descriptive system Spatial relations of vegetation (nearest neighbor distances, order of neighbor distance, correction for sampling area, mean distances between individuals in a sampling area) Definitions of concepts and list of mathematical symbols Field methods (symbols for structural elements and their use in the descriptive system) Reduction of field data and preparation of the structural diagram The interpretation of the structural diagram Table of values for structural cell parameters Table of values for measured and calculated mean nearest neighbor (Camp McCoy, Wisconsin).
