摘要：Biodiversity is currently an important issue for the EC (see Agenda 21, habitats
directive). However, by which means can this be measured? First of all, the
evaluation requires a concept of hierarchical natural units (WHITTAKER 1972,
1977, BEIERKUHNLEIN 2003), filled with ecologically significant and easily
recordable key criteria. In order to ensure the meaningful application of the
theoretical term to nature protection, qualitative restrictions are required as
well: not the maximum of biodiversity, but the regionally characteristic and the
individually distinctive biodiversity should be the objective of conservation.
