Description :
Two field sites in the Judean Desert, in close proximity to each other, were compared with regard to plant species richness, production, and population dynamics. Although having very similar climatic conditions, the two types differed in edaphic properties. The importance of abiotic and biotic factors and their influence on the studied sites is discussed.
