The National Vegetation Classification (NVC) has become the
standard classification used for describing vegetation in Britain.
It is a 'phytosociological' classification, classifying vegetation
solely on the basis of the plant species of which it is composed.
The NVC breaks down each broad vegetation type into communities.
Many of these communities contain two or more sub-communities, in a
few cases further divided into variants. The second volume of
British Plant Communities (Rodwell, 1991) provides a detailed
account of 38 mire communities and 22 heath communities, with
information on their composition, structure and distribution. The
summary descriptions here are derived directly from the full
accounts prepared by John Rodwell but are in no way a substitute
for them. Rather they are intended as an aide-memoire to assist
surveyors in the field or for anyone else wishing to familiarise
themselves with the overall scheme of classification for mires and
heaths. This is a reprint edition (with no amendments) of ISBN
1-86107-526-X.
