Russian Journal of Ecology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

An analysis of 23 112 of geobotanical releves using a soil moisture scale has been performed to characterize indicator properties of plants and distinguish stenotopic and eurytopic species. Indicator species most sensitive to changes in soil moisture have been identified.
