Vegetacijska inverzija je posledica temperaturne inverzije v gorskih depresijah (vrtače, udornice, doli…). To pomeni, da v temperaturnih pasovih proti dnu depresije najdemo tiste rastline, ki so običajno razporejene v zonalnih pasovih proti vrhu gora.

Vegetation inversion. Altitudinal zonation in regions with high relief describes the natural layering of ecosystems which occurs at distinct altitudes due to varying environmental conditions. In depressions, the vegetation inversion appears, caused by the temperature inversion. In Lopučniška dolina is a nice example of vegetation inversion.
