Abstract: | Summary The concept of structure in phytosociology has been analysed. Three families of structure characteristics have been distinguished: (1) qualitative constituent, (2) quantitative constituent and (3) relational characteristics. Selected structural features are illustrated in some detail and completed by references. The key role of spatial structure has been emphasized and a simple method for the introduction of the parameters of spatial structure in data processing has been proposed. Some remarks to the present syntaxonomy have been added from the spatial structure point of view.Contribution from the Working Group for Data-Processing, International Society for Vegetation Science.Thanks are due to Drs. J. Jenik and J. Kvt for advice and to the Editors for linguistic help. |
