'''Vegetasi''' (dari [[bahasa Inggris]]: '''''vegetation''''') dalam [[ekologi]] adalah istilah untuk keseluruhan [[komunitas (ekologi)|komunitas]] [[tetumbuhan]] di suatu tempat tertentu, mencakup baik perpaduan komunal dari jenis-jenis [[flora]] penyusunnya maupun tutupan lahan (''ground cover'') yang dibentuknya<ref name=Burrows>{{Cite book|last=Burrows|first=Colin J.|year=1990|title=Processes of vegetation change.|publisher=Unwin Hyman|location=London|isbn=0045800138|page=1}}</ref>. Vegetasi merupakan bagian hidup yang tersusun dari tetumbuhan yang menempati suatu [[ekosistem]], atau, dalam area yang lebih sempit, [[relung ekologis]]. Beraneka tipe [[hutan]], [[kebun]], [[padang rumput]], dan [[tundra]] merupakan contoh-contoh vegetasi.

As a general rule, the larger an area under consideration, the more likely the vegetation will be heterogeneous across it. Two main factors are at work. First, the temporal dynamics of disturbance and succession are increasingly unlikely to be in [[synchrony]] across any area as the size of that area increases. That is, different areas will be at different developmental stages due to different local histories, particularly their times since last major disturbance. This fact interacts with inherent environmental variability (e.g. in soils, climate, topography, etc.), which is also a function of area. Environmental variability constrains the suite of species that can occupy a given area, and the two factors together interact to create a mosaic of vegetation conditions across the landscape. Only in [[agricultural]] or [[horticultural]] systems does vegetation ever approach perfect uniformity. In natural systems, there is always heterogeneity, although its scale and intensity will vary widely. A natural [[grassland]] may be homogeneous when compared to the same area of partially burned forest.
