IB ESS 2.5.1 Zonation definition
Practise recognising zonation patterns in figures and explaining how environmental gradients affect species or vegetation distribution.
How this is tested
- identify a vegetation or land-use distribution pattern from a figure
- distinguish zonation over space from succession over time using an ecological example
- suggest an abiotic gradient such as tidal level, soil moisture or elevation
