There is a close connection between Nordic types and the types of the vegetation map of Europe.
However, owing to the need for generalisation, only a small number of Nordic types, mainly
woodland, are used to illustrate the European pattern of vegetation. Within coastal vegetation and
mires, often more than one Nordic type is to be found in the European subdivision. However, the
picture is easily supplemented using the data sheets and the database describing all the Nordic types
and their connections to the types chosen for the European vegetation map.
