Description

Physiognomic and species compositional criteria that form a basis for correct use of the vegetation map are compared and discussed in this review. Systematizing classification systematizing of vegetation units was done by the criterion of species composition such as association would have not only a syntaxonomic attribute but also attributes of the synchorology, synmorphology and syndinamic. Moreover, description and understanding of an ecological characteristics of various attributes of each vegetation unit was necessary when the vegetation diagnosis and land evaluation were done from the vegetation map for which the phytosociological units were made as legends. However, it is not necessary for users to understand the ecological characteristics of vegetation units for effective use of the vegetation map. Ecological research related to classification of the patterns of vegetation landscape using the vegetation map are discussed further as the classification criterion of each vegetation complex in the symphytosociology or symphytocoenology developed from the phytosociology. Geosigmassociation is explained as a basic unit of vegetation landscape. Some results of the landscape ecological research related to the analyses of the spatial structure of vegetation landscape and of the interrelation are also shown.
