Information
Ecological parameter: sensitive species
Parameter group: ecoregion related parameters
Explanation:
This parameter indicates, if a species is categorised as sensitive species and the ecoregion(s) in which it is considered to be sensitive. Sensitive species are species that tolerate environmental parameters only within very narrow limits (stenotopic, stenoecious). They therefore only colonise specific habitats and react intolerant against disturbances of their habitat.
Classification system: modified presence/absence assignment system
