What will I learn?
This practical Phytosociology Training Course teaches you to set up relevé plots, gather standard vegetation and environmental data, and create neat species-by-plot tables. You will use key diversity measures, ordination, clustering, and indicator species techniques, then turn findings into simple maps, management zones, and eco-friendly trail suggestions based on actual gradients and local ecology.
