Abstract
During the long-term monitoring project in Obergurgl, the coverage of vegetation and the amount of litter per plot was recorded in the year 2008. The project was established in 2000, with the aim to record vegetational development in subalpine to alpine altitudes in aspects on the effect of grazing and grazing exclosure. This data refers to vegetation coverage and the amount of litter per plot. Data was recorded in 2008

Additional information
Method Description
A permanent plot has a size of one square meter (1 m²). For recording the vegetation coverage and the amount of litter, a metal frame with 1 m² was used. This metal frame is divided by 100 sub-plots, each with size of 10*10 cm. Vegetation coverage and the amount of litter were recorded in % per sub-plot. The data shows means per m² and standard deviation of the 100 sub-plots recorded (%).
