Floristic Survey

A floristic survey is a systematic study that records all the plant species in a specific area. It involves identifying, cataloging, and mapping plants like trees, shrubs, and grasses to understand the region's biodiversity. This information helps scientists and conservationists assess the health of ecosystems, monitor changes over time, and make informed decisions for environmental management. Essentially, it's a detailed inventory of plants in a given location, providing valuable insights into the plant diversity and ecological characteristics of the area.
