Coastal-meadow position
Occurrence uses the 30 sampled plots in each community. Community boundaries are not rigid; these are study observations, not a complete Estonian distribution. Study data and methods →
Phragmites australis is a large perennial grass of lake and sea shores, shallow water, ditches, flood meadows and mire margins. Its source-supported habitats include freshwater, wetland and coastal environments, so it is not restricted to brackish coastal systems.

Recorded in 12 of 120 sampled plots.
FINBIF TAXONOMY
OUR MEASURED TRAITS
Trait values are pooled measurements collected during the 2024 coastal-meadow field campaign and are study observations, not fixed species constants. Only summaries with at least five measurements are shown.
Range 1.3–11.1 · average 3.68 · n = 5

These views complement the primary photograph above without repeating it. Use them alongside a regional identification key; photographs alone are not sufficient for a field identification.
FIELD DATA → EARTH OBSERVATION
These steps show what this record contributes to the 2024 study. They do not turn the taxon name into a remotely sensed measurement.
8 occupied plots have a positive numeric cover value available for occupied-plot cover summaries.
Only CCI passed the documented minimum of five measurements. Its species median can contribute to the corresponding plot-level community-weighted mean where cover is available.
Plot-level ecological responses are paired with UAV predictors. A fitted model can estimate variation in those responses across the landscape; this record does not train a classifier for Phragmites australis.
Interpretation boundary: UAV or satellite imagery does not uniquely identify Phragmites australis in this study. Follow the complete field-to-EO workflow →
