Potential Natural Vegetation (PNV) refers to the plant community that would be established if all successional sequences were completed without human interference under the present environmental conditions, including those created by humans. PNV is a useful tool to stratify the landscape into basic units of land capability. PNV maps should, by design, be rather stable. They may, however, be refined or updated as better information becomes available. In comparison, the concept of existing vegetation is based on the composition and arrangement of plants that exist today. Existing vegetation is...
