| Περίληψη: | The specific floristic elements of rangelands recommend specific vegetation types with unique features, called rangeland habitat types. Consistent with the ecological characteristics (climate, soil) these vegetation types have a special place in the modern conceptualization of Rangeland Ecology and Management. The description, current status and geographical distribution of these habitat types are targets of this Unit. Upon completion of the chapter, students will understand how aggregation and formation of plant communities of the major groups of rangeland plants are created (link with the previous Unit). Understanding the formation of floristic aggregates underlies the dynamics of rangeland vegetation (link to the next Unit).
