title: CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VEGETATION COMPOSITION OF THE ABRASION COAST OF THE NORTHWESTERN PART OF THE BLACK SEA COAST OF THE CAUCASUS
abstract: Abrasion coasts (cliffs) are characterized by heterogeneity of the spatial structure and mobility of the substrate, which creates specific environmental conditions for plants. Nevertheless, plant communities of cliffs of the Black Sea coast of the Northwestern Caucasus are well developed due to the presence of a large number of Mediterranean species that are well adapted to such conditions. Communities are also supplemented by local endemics and representatives of petrophytic vegetation of adjac
