Abstract

The first comprehensive phytosociological classification of all vegetation types in Europe (EuroVegChecklist; Applied Vegetation Science, 2016, 19, 3–264) contained brief descriptions of each type. However, these descriptions were not standardized and mentioned only the most distinct features of each vegetation type. The practical application of the vegetation classification system could be enhanced if users had the option to select sets of vegetation types based on various combinations of structural, ecological, and biogeographical attributes. Based on a literature review and expert knowledge, we created a new database that assigns standardized categorical attributes of 12 variables to each of the 1106 alliances dominated by vascular plants defined in EuroVegChecklist. These variables include dominant life form, phenological optimum, substrate moisture, substrate reaction, salinity, nutrient status, soil organic matter, vegetation region, elevational vegetation belt, azonality, successional status and naturalness. The new database has the potential to enhance the usefulness of phytosociological classification for researchers and practitioners and to help understand this classification to non-specialists.

欧洲植被联盟的结构、生态和生物地理属性

欧洲所有植被类型的首个综合植物社会学分类（EuroVegChecklist；《应用植被科学》，2016 年，19，3-264）包含对每种类型的简要描述。然而，这些描述并不规范，只提到了每种植被类型最明显的特征。如果用户可以根据结构、生态和生物地理属性的不同组合来选择植被类型集，那么植被分类系统的实际应用就会得到加强。根据文献综述和专家知识，我们创建了一个新的数据库，为欧洲植被名录中定义的 1106 个以维管束植物为主的联盟中的每一个联盟分配了 12 个变量的标准化分类属性。这些变量包括主要生命形式、最佳物候期、基质湿度、基质反应、盐度、营养状况、土壤有机质、植被区域、海拔植被带、地貌、演替状态和自然度。新数据库有可能提高植物社会学分类对研究人员和从业人员的实用性，并帮助非专业人员了解这种分类。

期刊介绍： Applied Vegetation Science focuses on community-level topics relevant to human interaction with vegetation, including global change, nature conservation, nature management, restoration of plant communities and of natural habitats, and the planning of semi-natural and urban landscapes. Vegetation survey, modelling and remote-sensing applications are welcome. Papers on vegetation science which do not fit to this scope (do not have an applied aspect and are not vegetation survey) should be directed to our associate journal, the Journal of Vegetation Science. Both journals publish papers on the ecology of a single species only if it plays a key role in structuring plant communities.
