Forest station, an elevational transect on the West of the Piton des Neiges (MAK)

Elevational Transect on the West side of the Piton des Neiges. Implementation of small permanents plots every 200 m of height between 750 and 2350 m. Differents biotics and abiotics parameters are observed on plots:

- Climatic variables (T, RH)

- Physico-chemical analyses of grounds

- Inventories of vegetation, arthropods
