Survey of the vascular plants of Alert (Ellesmere Island, Canada), a polar desert at the northern tip of the Americas [PDF]
Long-term monitoring is critical to guide conservation strategies and assess the impacts of climatic changes and anthropogenic activities. In High Arctic ecosystems, information on distribution and population trends of plants is dramatically lacking ...

Mapping Floristic Patterns of Trees in Peruvian Amazonia Using Remote Sensing and Machine Learning
Recognition of the spatial variation in tree species composition is a necessary precondition for wise management and conservation of forests. In the Peruvian Amazonia, this goal is not yet achieved mostly because adequate species inventory data has been ...

Climate Change Impacts on Species Composition and Floristic Regions in Thailand
Tropical forests are vulnerable to climate change including increased temperatures and changes to rainfall variation. Here, we use Thailand as a case study for assessing the impacts of the shared socio-economic pathway and climate scenarios on changes to

A Historical Floristic Inventory of Pine Rockland Fabaceae (Leguminosae)
The pine rocklands of southern Florida are an imperiled habitat as the higher, drier areas of land have been steadily developed over the last century. Little of the original extent of this unique ecosystem remains today, with much of it in remnant fragments affected by surrounding development.

Analyzing floristic inventories with multiple maps
Abstract Spatial observations of plant occurrences contain a wealth of information on relations among species and on the relation between species and environmental conditions. Typically, inventory data of this kind are large co-occurrence matrices, and hence, direct ecological interpretations based on expert knowledge are often very difficult ...
