Vegetation here is almost non-existent, though on the eastern slopes of the Andes rainfall is adequate for rainfed agriculture.

Vegetation that is mainly observed here is grass and shrubs with few alpine species.

Vegetation here resembles that found in the tundra of the polar regions.

Vegetation in the Kalahari consists mainly of grasses and acacias, but there are over 400 identified plant species present ( including the wild watermelon, or Tsamma melon ).

Vegetation in the mangroves consists almost exclusively of the Grey Mangrove ( Avicennia marina var.

Vegetation alongside the City's streams primarily consists of grass and sedge species.

Vegetation in better-drained areas consists primarily of short grasses with post oaks and other small timber and brush.

Vegetation consists exclusively of moss and lichen, which have adapted to the extreme Antarctic climate.

Vegetation is rare, and this ecoregion consists mostly of sand dunes ( erg ), stone plateaus ( hamada ), gravel plains ( reg ), dry valleys ( wadi ), and salt flats.

Vegetation on these islands mainly consists of mangrove swamps, and they are prone to flooding.

Vegetation is diverse on the island and consists of saltmeadow cordgrass, saltmarsh bulrush, salt marsh cattail, and American threesquare that naturally flourished behind the berms.

Vegetation consists of low shrubs, including herbs, bunchgrass, sida and morning-glory vines, together with a few clumps of trees, including coconut palms and kou trees.

Vegetation cover consists of bush tangles, rare forest meadows, semi-deserts covered with glades or semi-deserts covered both with glades and saline.

Vegetation along the upper part of the river consists mostly of spruce.

Vegetation on the island consists of two species of mangroves and forest red gum eucalyptus trees.

Vegetation consists mainly of pine forest, sagebrush, and open meadows.

Vegetation in this area generally consists of mangrove trees and shrubs, cogonal growth, and coconuts.

Vegetation consists mainly of vast, dense forests of Dahurian Larch ( Larix gmelinii ), with Siberian Larch ( Larix sibirica ) and the hybrid between the Dahurian and Siberian Larches ( Larix x czekanowskii ) occurring in the west.

Vegetation consists of large eastern white pine, eastern hemlock, sugar maple, northern red oak, and other old-growth northern hardwood species.

Vegetation primarily consists of creosote bush scrub community with Joshua trees on the western side of the mountain.

Vegetation mostly consists of prairie and Cross Timbers oak forest with an oak / elm / hickory / pecan bottomland forest adjacent to the river.

Vegetation typical of a fen.

Vegetation in the park is typical low tundra, with dwarf birch, willow and mountain avens.

Vegetation is typical of Mediterranean environments, with chaparral and grasses on the hillsides and numerous western valley oaks.

Vegetation types vary from cushion and rosette plants on the ridges and in the rock crannies ; to herbaceous and grassy vegetation along the slopes ; dwarf shrubs with grasses and forbs below the melting snowdrifts ; and sedges, grasses, low shrubs, and mosses in the bogs and along the brooks.

In the 1957 publication, Vegetation of the Sonoran Desert, Forrest Shreve divided the Sonoran Desert into seven regions according to characteristic vegetation: Lower Colorado Valley, Arizona Upland, Plains of Sonora, Foothills of Sonora, Central Gulf Coast, and Magdalena Region.

Vegetation in the park ranges from species of mountainous trees to the subtropical vegetation of the Izu Islands.

Vegetation types include littoral, wetland and volcanic vegetation.

The British National Vegetation Classification or NVC is a system of classifying natural habitat types in Great Britain according to the vegetation they contain.

* National Vegetation Classification, two different systems for classifying natural vegetation:

Vegetation in the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness can be divided into three different zones of riparian vegetation communities, which run parallel to each side of the river.

* Warming, E. ( 1887 ) Om Grønlands Vegetation title: On the vegetation of Greenland.

Vegetation communities present at the site include sandstone blue-gum forests, iron bark, Cumberland Plain Woodland vegetation communities and some coastal species such as Banksia serrata.

The British National Vegetation Classification ( NVC ) is a system for categorising the vegetation of Britain.

One of the first megatransects in the United States, was conducted by Dr. Robert R. Humphrey when he rephotographed 535 miles of the natural vegetation along the United States and Mexico border at the 1890s permanent border monument locations, spaced about five miles apart, and published the work in " 90 Years and 535 miles: Vegetation Changes along the Mexican Border " ( 1987, pub.

British NVC community SM10 ( Transitional low-marsh vegetation with Puccinellia maritima, annual Salicornia species and Suaeda maritima ) is one of the salt-marsh communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system.

This article gives an overview of the plant communities formed by vegetation of open habitats in the British National Vegetation Classification system.

Vegetation units as understood by phytosociologists may express largely abstract vegetation concepts ( e. g. the set of all hard-leaved evergreen forests of western Mediterranean area ) or actual readily recognizable vegetation types ( e. g. cork-oak oceanic forests on Pleistocene dunes with dense canopy in SW-Iberian Peninsula ).

Vegetation patterns and growth rates will be directly affected by shifts in precipitation amount and distribution, which will in turn affect agriculture as well as natural ecosystems.

Vegetation cover itself changes as well, reaching 100 % during and shortly after the flood season.

NatureServe maintains the National Vegetation Classification Standard for the United States as well as the International Classification of Ecological Communities, currently focused on the Western Hemisphere.
