Mountainous vegetation of central black sea region
Özet
Central Black Sea Region includes many different vegetation types. At high elevations, forest vegetation is dominant. Some forest types have closed canopies, while some of them can be disturbed mainly due to anthropogenic factors (grazing, clear-cutting, etc.). Oceanic climate is seen in northern slopes, while continental climate is also seen especially in inner parts of the region. Continental climate is also seen in inner parts of stream valley (e.g., Kizilirmak valley). Mediterranean climate is also penetrated in inner parts of the region. As a result of this, it is impossible to draw a demarcation line among different vegetation types. For example, some forest communities include Euxine, steppe, and Mediterranean-type communities and phytosociological classification is too difficult. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.
