https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/underpinning-european-policy-on-nature-conservation The EUNIS habitat classification is a pan-European, comprehensive and widely accepted classification of all habitat types. The increasing need to support European policy on nature conservation with harmonised habitat descriptions, condition estimates and change assessments underpinned by field data led to the initiation of an extensive review of the classification. This briefing gives an overview of the EUNIS habitat classification and revision process of its terrestrial part through alignment with the European Vegetation units. The focus is on heathland, scrub and tundra habitat types. en Plone https://www.eea.europa.eu/eea-print-logo.gif https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/underpinning-european-policy-on-nature-conservation https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/underpinning-european-policy-on-nature-conservation/briefing.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/underpinning-european-policy-on-nature-conservation/briefing.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/underpinning-european-policy-on-nature-conservation/briefing.png/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Tue, 23 May 2017 15:16:12 GMT Laura Cernahoschi
