LTER Zöbelboden, Austria, Intensive plots vegetation data 2004 - 2007

Basic Information

Abstract

Vegetation survey data of the two ICP-IM intensive plots (IP1 and IP2) at the 90 ha study site LTER Zöbelboden, Austria. The intensive plots were divided into 31 (IP1) and 32 (IP2) 5 × 5 m areas. Within each of these areas, vegetation was recorded on two permanently marked 0.5 × 0.5 m subplots in August 2004 and was re-recorded, using the same method, in August 2007. For each subplot, the percentage ground cover of every vascular plant was determined.

Methodology

Method Description

Vegetation survey data of the two ICP-IM intensive plots (IP1 and IP2) at the 90 ha study site LTER Zöbelboden, Austria. The intensive plots were divided into 31 (IP1) and 32 (IP2) 5 × 5 m areas. Within each of these areas, two 0.5 × 0.5 m subplots were randomly selected and permanently marked by metal poles in 1993. Vegetation on the subplots was first recorded in August 2004 and was re-recorded, using the same method, in August 2007. For each subplot, the percentage ground cover of every vascular plant was determined.
Mean cover values refer to clusters of 8 areas.
