Piedmont vegetal communities of the Mendoza Precordillera
A geobotanic study of the Mendoza Precordilleran foothill has lead to determine that there are two deñnite vegetation levels in the piedmont: one of them mostly with Larrea cuneifolia which covers an extention of 750 m to 1.100 m, over 1.100 m to 1.500-1.800 above the sea level.Through the sociologi...
