| Description | Die doel van hierdie studie was om hoofplantegroei-eenhede en hulle variasies, van die A-landtipe, te identifiseer, karakteriseer en aan die hand van die habitat ekologies te interpreteer. Vyf plantgemeenskappe is deur die toepassing van 'n numeriese klassifikasie en Braun-Blanquet-prosedures geidentifiseer en elk is met ’n spesifieke habitat gekorreleer. 'n Duidelike onderskeid is tussen die hoogliggende en die laagliggende plantgemeenskappe gemaak. Plantegroeigradiënte en geassosieerde gradiënte in habitat is deur toepassing van ’n ordeningstegniek geidentifiseer. Die studie beklemtoon die belangrikheid van topografie en grondtipe vir die afbakening van plantegroei-bestuurseenhede vir boerdery of natuurbewaring. The aim of this study was to identify, characterize and interpret ecologically, by using habitat characteristics, the major vegetation units and their variations of the A land type. Five plant communities were successfully distinguished by applying a numerical classification and Braun-Blanquet procedures. The plant communities could easily be correlated with specific habitat types. A clear distinction could be made between plant communities of the upland and lowland areas. Vegetation gradients and associated gradients in habitat were identified by using an ordination technique. The study emphasized the importance of topography and soil type for the delimitation of management units for farming or nature conservation practices. | |
