July 8 -13, 1985, an international group of scientists met in
Uppsala for a symposium on the subject 'Theory and models in
Vegetation science' . A volume of over 70 extended abstracts had
already been published in time for the symposium (Leemans et at.,
1985). That volume included contributions from nearly all of those
who gave talks or presented posters at the symposium. The present
volume represents the fully-refereed proceedings of the symposium
and features articles by a majority of speakers, plus a handful by
poster authors, and two that were sent independently to Vegetatio
and seemed timely and relevant to the symposi um's theme. As
organizers, we tried to bring together for the symposium people
whose interests covered several key aspects of modern vegetation
science: vegetation dynamics, on shorter or longer time scales; the
analysis of community data, and of vegetation-environment
relationships in both time and space; and the functional basis of
vegetation in terms of the individual plants and plant populations
that it comprises. We encouraged contributors to focus on theory
and models - not necessarily mathematical models, but also
conceptual models that might contribute to the development of
theory and mathematical models."
