Description :
The AA. first explored how the floristic composition of the plant communities is related to the different environmental gradients. They discuss the environmental variables that they found to be highly correlated with the floristic composition. Second, they determined how the plant communities belonging to the same phytosociological class can be characterized by their specific combinations of environmental factors.
