- Plant Biosystematics (programme PřF, N-BOT)
- Plant Ecology (programme PřF, N-BOT)
- Nature Conservation - Botany (programme PřF, N-OCH)
- Course objectives
- Characteristics of the major types of European vegetation and habitats are given according to the main biogeographical regions. The focus is on the ecology of dominant species, notably trees, potential natural vegetation of particular regions, biogeographical affinities of the most typical species, history, dynamics and human impact. Conservation applications of the habitat classification are also emphasized, including the European Habitats Directive, EUNIS Habitats Classification and European Red List of Habitats.
- Learning outcomes
- After finishing this course, the student will:
- be able to identify the main types of European vegetation and habitats in particular biogeographical regions;
- know plant species that are the main dominants of vegetation and habitat types, their ecology and biogeography;
- understand ecological and biogeographical processes that have been shaping European ecosystems and habitat types;
- be familiar with applications of habitat classification in international nature conservation. - Syllabus
- 1. Introduction: history of European vegetation research, phytosociologial classification system, main literature and other information resources.
- 2. European habitat classifications and their use: European Habitats Directive (Natura 2000 network), Bern Convention habitats (Emerald network), EUNIS Habitat Classification, European Red List of Habitats.
- 3. Natural conditions of Europe: effects of abiotic and historical factors on European biogeography, the division of Europe into vegetation-geographical regions.
- 4. Mediterranean region: sclerophyllous forests, Mediterranean shrublands and grasslands, coastal dunes, cliffs and saltmarshes.
- 5. Submediterranean region: deciduous and coniferous forests, thermophilous deciduous shrublands, thermophilous grasslands.
- 6. Southern European mountain systems: altitudinal vegetation belts, vegetation and habitats of the high mountains of the Iberian, Italian and Balkan Peninsulas and of the large Mediterranean islands.
- 7. Crimean Mountains and Caucasus: steppe, forest-steppe, submediterranean and mountain habitats of Crimea, mountain habitats of the Great and Lesser Caucasus, Euxinian, Colchic and Hyrcanian forests, deserts and semi-deserts of Azerbaijan.
- 8. Steppe and forest-steppe: zonal types of Eastern European steppe and forest-steppe, forests of the forest-steppe zone, forest-steppe of Romania, Bulgaria and the Pannonian Basin.
- 9. Alps: historical and current biogeography, altitudinal vegetation belts, mountain forests, habitats of the subalpine and alpine belts.
- 10. Carpathians: historical and current biogeography of the Carpathians, altitudinal vegetation belts, mountain forests, habitats of the subalpine and alpine belts.
- 11. Central Europe north of the Alps: Central European broad-leaved deciduous forests, habitats of the Hercynian mountain systems, habitats of the Central European Plain.
- 12. Atlantic region: oceanic broad-leaved deciduous forests, heathlands, mires, coastal dunes, cliffs and saltmarshes.

- Plant Biosystematics (programme PřF, N-BOT)
- Plant Ecology (programme PřF, N-BOT)
- Course objectives
- Characteristics of the major types of European vegetation and habitats are given according to the main biogeographical regions. The focus is on the ecology of dominant species, notably trees, potential natural vegetation of particular regions, biogeographical affinities of the most typical species, history, dynamics and human impact. Conservation applications of the habitat classification are also emphasized, including the European Habitats Directive, EUNIS Habitats Classification and European Red List of Habitats.
- Learning outcomes
- After finishing this course, the student will:
- be able to identify the main types of European vegetation and habitats in particular biogeographical regions;
- know plant species that are the main dominants of vegetation and habitat types, their ecology and biogeography;
- understand ecological and biogeographical processes that have been shaping European ecosystems and habitat types;
- be familiar with applications of habitat classification in international nature conservation. - Syllabus
- 1. Introduction: history of European vegetation research, phytosociologial classification system, main literature and other information resources.
- 2. European habitat classifications and their use: European Habitats Directive (Natura 2000 network), Bern Convention habitats (Emerald network), EUNIS Habitat Classification, European Red List of Habitats.
- 3. Natural conditions of Europe: effects of abiotic and historical factors on European biogeography, the division of Europe into vegetation-geographical regions.
- 4. Mediterranean region: sclerophyllous forests, Mediterranean shrublands and grasslands, coastal dunes, cliffs and saltmarshes.
- 5. Submediterranean region: deciduous and coniferous forests, thermophilous deciduous shrublands, thermophilous grasslands.
- 6. Southern European mountain systems: altitudinal vegetation belts, vegetation and habitats of the high mountains of the Iberian, Italian and Balkan Peninsulas and of the large Mediterranean islands.
- 7. Crimean Mountains and Caucasus: steppe, forest-steppe, submediterranean and mountain habitats of Crimea, mountain habitats of the Great and Lesser Caucasus, Euxinian, Colchic and Hyrcanian forests, deserts and semi-deserts of Azerbaijan.
- 8. Steppe and forest-steppe: zonal types of Eastern European steppe and forest-steppe, forests of the forest-steppe zone, forest-steppe of Romania, Bulgaria and the Pannonian Basin.
- 9. Alps: historical and current biogeography, altitudinal vegetation belts, mountain forests, habitats of the subalpine and alpine belts.
- 10. Carpathians: historical and current biogeography of the Carpathians, altitudinal vegetation belts, mountain forests, habitats of the subalpine and alpine belts.
- 11. Central Europe north of the Alps: Central European broad-leaved deciduous forests, habitats of the Hercynian mountain systems, habitats of the Central European Plain.
- 12. Atlantic region: oceanic broad-leaved deciduous forests, heathlands, mires, coastal dunes, cliffs and saltmarshes.
- 13. Boreal region: taiga, mires, habitats of the Scandinavian mountains and Iceland.
