Vegetation-plot databases are a useful tool in the context of vegetation classification and beyond. In October 2017 we started a project called “Formalized classification of European Mediterranean and temperate pine forests” in the context of the European Vegetation Survey (EVS). For this purpose, we are building up the CircumMed+Euro
Pine Forest database.
The database is managed by the Vegetation Science Group, Department of Botany and Zoology of Masaryk University in Brno (Czech Republic) and it stores data that have never been deposited in any other database. It currently stores more than 3000 pine-dominated vegetation plots and plots of related vegetation types from more than 15 countries across Europe and the adjacent areas in the Mediterranean Basin. The data were collected through a detailed literature search in the main vegetation journals. We also included neglected or unpublished plots contributed by different researchers from several European, Eastern Mediterranean and Northern African countries, mentioned in the present abstract as “data contributors”. All plots were digitized, georeferenced and coordinates stored with different degrees of precision according to the accuracy reported E\ WKH RULJLQDO DXWKRUV $OO LQIRUPDWLRQ SUHVHQW LQ WKH RULJLQDO SXEOLFDWLRQV í ORFDOLW\ country, relevé area, total/tree/shrub/herb cover, bedrock, reference, association, alliance, RUGHUFODVVKRORW\SHíZDVGLJLWL]HG6WDQGDUGL]HGDQGXSWRGDWHQRPHQFODWXUHRIWD[D is also provided for all plots.
The pine forest data of the CircumMed+Euro Pine Forest database fills the gaps present in the EVA (European Vegetation Archive). The database will soon be registered in the Global Index of Vegetation-Plot Databases (GIVD) and will be accessible through EVA or by asking the custodian.
