species richness of the arboreal layer Explanation: In this context, "specifico" means "che si riferisce alla specie". Both "species richness" and "arboreal layer" are widely used terms in this field. |

tree layer Explanation: Agree with Laura's reading; you could even say "species diversification". as in the following example (UN/ECE monitoring program) .17.2.2 Observations According to its stratification and functional groups the vegetation of the intensive plot should be separated into layers. No specific height limits of trees and shrubs can be given, but here is an example: tree layer: trees > 5 m shrub layer: trees 1-5 m, morphological shrubs >1 m field layer: trees and shrubs <1 m, other vascular plants irrespective of height bottom layer: bryophytes and lichens Reference: http://www.vgh.fi/eng/intcoop/projects/icp_/manual |
