Name of the Database:	The title of your database. Please choose a name that is meaningful and understandable in a global context. Potentially accompanied by an acronym. (required field)
Subtitle:(fact sheet)
Optionally, you can provide an explanatory subtitle, which is not considered as part of the proper name of the database and thus is not capitalised. Subtitles are strongly recommended in cases when the proper name does not clearly indicate the scope of the database in terms of geography and and included vegetation types.

Editor:

Larisa Khanina

Scope

(fact sheet)

Database includes about 5000 vegetation relevés sampled mostly in State nature reserves and National parks of European Russia (mainly Moscow, Kaluga, Voronezh regions; the Chuvash and Mari El republics). Vascular floristic plots with cover abundance recording in forest and meadow communities are entered including plots on abandoned agricultural lands.

Abstract

(fact sheet)

The database contains records from vegetation plots located in forest communities and, to a lesser extent, meadow communities; about 10% of the relevés was sampled on former agricultural fields which were abandoned from 1 to 25 years before the sampling. Mature and old-growth broad-leaved forests as well as mixed coniferous-broad-leaved forests are described from the State Nature Reserves Kaluzhskie zaseki, Voronezhskiy, Prioksko-Terrasnyi, Prisurskiy, Bolshaya Kokshaga and from the Ugra and Mariy-Chodra National Parks.
