Potential natural vegetation of the model transect in Třeboň basin (South Bohemia, Czech Republic)

The paper deals with preliminary results of reconstruction vegetation mapping based on geobiocoenological principles (soil, climatic and growth conditions) and published palynological studies from the study area. On the basis of occurrences and growth features of climax trees (especially Fagus sylvatica and Abies alba) and published palynological studies, I suppose lower potential occurrence of Pinus sylvestris and Quercus robur in contrary to existing reconstruction maps (maps of reconstructed natural vegetation, potential natural vegetation and forest site maps). In these maps, proportion of Fagus sylvatica is probably underestimated. I assume potential occurrence of beech forests or forests with a great proportion of beech also on dystric cambisols and podzols developed from gravel sand of pleistocene alluvial terraces or on pseudogleys
