Various methods are applied for the floristic analysis of vegetation. An extensive survey exists in Knapp (ed., 1984), Volume 4 of this handbook. In this volume we will treat, therefore, only five methods that are often used by vegetation mappers:

    the quadrat (relevé) method;

  2. 2.

    Küchler’s phytocenological Record;

  3. 3.

    the line transect method;

    the step-point method;

  5. 5.

    the Curtis transect.
