Groundvegetation
Ground vegetation refers to the plant life that grows at ground level in a particular environment. This can include a wide variety of species, such as grasses, mosses, ferns, wildflowers, and low-lying shrubs. The specific types of ground vegetation present are highly dependent on factors like climate, soil type, light availability, and the surrounding ecosystem. In forests, ground vegetation might be sparse due to limited sunlight reaching the forest floor, consisting mainly of shade-tolerant species. In open meadows or grasslands, it forms the dominant layer of the ecosystem.
Ground vegetation plays a crucial role in ecological processes. It helps to stabilize soil, preventing erosion
