Editors' Award, vegetation survey, remote sensing and restoration

摘要

Vegetation survey has always been an important aspect of vegetation science. In the history of International Association for Vegetation Science (IAVS), it was probably the original one. This approach has now been joined, in the science, in the Association, and in its journals, by many others: remote sensing, field experimentation, field and greenhouse experimentation, ecophysiology, and simulation. Still, survey has a major place.
