NPMS habitat guides

During the Tomorrow's Biodiversity project, we worked with Plantlife and ecologist Nick Law to produce a series of video guides to habitats classified by the national Plant Monitoring Scheme (NPMS). These films are designed to help NPMS volunteers decide which habitat type their survey plots are in. We have deliberately focussed on those habitats which can be difficult to distinguish from each other, such as dry heath and dry acid grassland.

We recommend you watch each pair of films together as they complement each other and will help you decide between the two similar habitats.

1a. Dry acid grassland

If you'd prefer, you can watch the film directly from our youTube channel.

 

1b. Dry heath

If you'd prefer, you can watch the film directly from our youTube channel.

 

2a. Neutral pasture and meadow

If you'd prefer, you can watch the film directly from our youTube channel.

 

2b. Neutral damp grassland

If you'd prefer, you can watch the film directly from our youTube channel.
