Survey and assessment of vegetation in the CONECOFOR permanent plots
Phytosociological knowledge of plant communities and their synecological allocation are the reference basis of the CONECOFOR Programme. Vegetation surveys are performed in all the CONECOFOR plots (28), and have been performed in most of them for 6-7 years, following two fundamental approaches: (1) phytosociological (plant community level) and (2) dynamical (population level). According to a syn...
متن کاملHow reliable is the monitoring of permanent vegetation plots? A test with multiple observers
Questions: A multiple plots design was developed for permanent vegetation plots. How reliable are the different methods used in this design and which changes can we measure ? Location: Alpine meadows (2430 m) in the Swiss Alps. Methods: Four inventories were obtained from 40m-plots: four subplots (0.4 m) with a list of species, two 10m-transects with the point method (50 points on each), one su...
متن کاملWhy and How Political Science Can Contribute to Public Health? Proposals for Collaborative Research Avenues
Written by a group of political science researchers, this commentary focuses on the contributions of political science to public health and proposes research avenues to increase those contributions. Despite progress, the links between researchers from these two fields develop only slowly. Divergences between the approach of political science to public policy and the expectations that public hea...
متن کاملCrown condition assessment at the CONECOFOR Permanent Monitoring Plots
A detailed crown condition assessment is currently being carried out at the CONECOFOR (CONtrollo ECOsistemi FORestali, Control of Forest Ecosystems) plots. The assessment began in 1996, and during the first two years (1996 and 1997) an assessment form based on previous regional experience was used; in 1998 the new official EU form was adopted. The resulting loss of comparability means that only...
متن کاملA new cost-distance model for human accessibility and an evaluation of accessibility bias in permanent vegetation plots in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA
Question: Can a new cost-distance model help us to evaluate the potential for accessibility bias in ecological observations? Howmuch accessibility bias is present in the vegetation monitoring plots accumulated over the last three decades in Great Smoky Mountains National Park? Location: Great Smoky Mountains National Park, North Carolina and Tennessee, USA. Methods: Distance, slope, stream cros...
