Alpine vegetation of Tasmania information


Alpine vegetation refers to the zone of vegetation between the altitudinal limit for tree growth and the nival zone.[1] Alpine zones in Tasmania can be difficult to classify owing to Tasmania's maritime climate limiting snow lie to short periods and the presence of a tree line that is not clearly defined.[2]
