Since the 1970s and particularly the works of Tüxen (1978) and Géhu & Rivas-Martínez (1981), dynamico-catenal phytosociology has facilitated the integration of vegetation dynamics by more precisely describing the trajectories of vegetation series. A national habitat mapping program (CarHAB), launched by France’s Ministry of Ecology, aims to map the vegetation and vegetation series of metropolitan France at a scale of 1: 25,000 by 2025. In this context, Corsica has been selected as a pilot region, due to its unique characteristics regarding Mediterranean and alticole vegetation. This book describes in detail the vegetation series and geoseries (ecology, structure, dynamic trajectories, effects of anthropogenic factors on vegetation dynamics, catenal positioning in the landscape) of two Corsican sectors: Cap Corse and Biguglia pond. These two study sites were selected using two methods:

Autorenporträt

Pauline Delbosc is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Brests Géoarchitecture Laboratory. She is currently working on a research project which aims to assess and monitor the conservation status of Atlantic and Mediterranean coastal habitats. Her doctoral thesis focused on the dynamic and catenal phytosociology of vegetation in Corsica, and on developing a methodological approach to categorizing and mapping vegetation series. Her publications focus on biogeography, vegetation and landscape ecology, as well as the mapping of natural and semi-natural habitats. She is a member of the council of the French Society of Phytosociology. Frédéric Bioret is Director of the University of Brests Géoarchitecture Laboratory. His thesis and numerous publications focus on European coastal flora and vegetation, environmental mapping, ecological restoration of Atlantic cliffs, and bioevaluation as a tool for management. He is currently leading research projects that involve the assessment and monitoring of the conservation status of French heathlands and coastal habitats. He is Chair of the French Society of Phytosociology and is involved in several national networks on protected areas. Christophe Panaïotis holds a PhD in Forest Ecology. His thesis assessed the potential sustainability of the holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) in Fango forest (Corsica). His publications focus on the phytosociological and ecological characterization of habitats, on the natural dynamics of holm oak forests, on the ancient forests of Corsica, and on the mapping of vegetation and landscapes. For several years he led the Habitat Department of the Corsican National Botanical Conservatory. He is currently working at the Species and Natural Habitats Department of the Corsican Environment Office.
