Abstract(s)
During the summer and fall of 1998, a field survey was
conducted in the temtory adjacent to the main waterways of
the Algarve region, regarding the flora and vegetation of
temestrial systems associated to rivers. These studies where
integrated in the Hidrographic Ba.in Plan for Algarve's
Rivers, aiming to recognise and establish the main landscape
units that form the mosaic of the referred temtory. This
communication presents the results of the survey relative to
the syccessional stages of Algarve's riparian vegetation,
adjacent vegetation and also salt marshes and dunes
vegetation. The recognition of the region's potentiai natural
vegetation, in order to evaluate the riparian vegetation's
conservation state, is obtained through the use of an easy-touse
field fom.
