dc.description.abstractPlant growth and diversity are controlled by a large number of factors, including water availability, light intensity, soil depth, pH and salinity, the level of exposure to wind and the degree of human disturbance. The interaction between these factors creates a set of local conditions that favour certain species over others. Malta’s valleys present a broad range of environmental conditions, where these factors vary dramatically over short distances. Changes in conditions along the length and across the width of the valleys interact with each other to form complex ecological units, capable of supporting a wide variety of plant species.en_GB
