What will I learn?
This practical Phytosociology Course teaches designing relevé plots, gathering standardised vegetation and environmental data, and creating clean species-by-plot tables. Apply diversity metrics, ordination, clustering, and indicator species analysis, then turn results into maps, management units, and eco-friendly trail suggestions based on real gradients and local ecology.
