An Analysis of a Vegetation-Microenvironmental Complex on Prairie Slopes in Saskatchewan
Ayyad MA and Dix RL. 1964. An Analysis of a Vegetation-Microenvironmental Complex on Prairie Slopes in Saskatchewan. Ecological Monographs. 34(4):421-442
The main objectives of the investigation were: (a) to study the variations in the composition of grassland vegetation as they are correlated with aspect and position, (b) to analyse the variations in the environmental factors which may be responsible for the species distributions, (c) to evaluate the degree of correlation between environmental factors, species behavior and vegetational pattern, and (d) to ascertain the degree of abruptness of phytosociological change which if great, would permit the recognition of separate vegetational units.
