Vegetation community and geochemistry in the Uummannaq District, West Greenland
Beach and salt marsh vegetation of the Uummannaq District, northern West Greenland (c. 70°15' N – 72° N, 49° W – 54° W) was studied 1998 according to the Braun-Blanquet phytosociological approach. Habitat analyses included soil chemistry. Such vegetation locally occurs and is not developed over...
