USNVC Proceedings

Proceedings of the US National Vegetation Classification

Description

The United States National Vegetation Classification (USNVC) is a dynamic classification, open to revisions as new ecological knowledge becomes available.  Authors can submit editorial changes and proposed revisions to the USNVC Review Board, which maintains an editorial and peer review process for these submissions (the Board is overseen by the ESA Panel on Vegetation Classification).

The Proceedings of the USNVC serves as the official record of approved revisions to the classification, and contains published manuscripts and reports that document the reasoning and evidence behind those changes.
