Floristic
or plant inventories are important scientifically as they provide
(1) distributional information of use in studies by taxonomists,
ecologists, and weed scientists, and (2) critical baseline
information to guide the informed management and conservation of
our natural heritage. Over the years, researchers from the
Department of Plant Biology and NCSC have been involved in numerous
floristic inventories throughout North Carolina (and beyond!) -
resulting in the compilation of many checklists, as well as in the
development of a broader understanding of various plant community
types. The map below shows some of the areas that have been
studied in the past. For study citations, simply select the
represented county of choice.
Continued
graduate study opportunities in floristics, leading to the
professional degree Master of Botany or Master of Science in
Botany, exist in our department.
