El Yunque National Forest Vegetation Monitoring Project data, 2019-2021
This data package includes data collected as part of the El Yunque National Forest (EYNF) Vegetation Monitoring Project, the first phase of which was conducted between January 2019 and April 2021 and is now completed. EYNF is coterminous with the Luquillo Experimental Forest. The project was implemented as a collaborative endeavor between the Amigos de El Yunque Foundation, the USDA Forest Service, and the University of Puerto Rico-Río Piedras Campus. Funding was provided by the Forest Service. It includes data for 40 0.1-ha circular plots located in secondary forest within the subtropical moist and wet life zones, ranging in elevation from approximately 100-600 m asl. Plots are classified into three groups based on combinations of their historical canopy cover and post-agricultural regeneration pathways. The first group corresponds to secondary forest plots with >50% canopy cover in 1936 that have continued to recover via passive natural regeneration (>50 P plots). The second group corresponds to secondary forest plots with <50% canopy cover in 1936 that have continued to recover via passive natural regeneration (<50 P plots). The third group corresponds to secondary forest plots that also had <50% cover in 1936 and experienced a combination of both assisted and passive natural regeneration (50 A+P plots). The assisted regeneration occurred up to the early 1980s. Since the 1980s this third group of plots has only undergone exclusively passive natural restoration. Eleven plots (total area = 1.1 ha) are classified as >50 P, 21 plots (total area = 2.1 ha) are classified as <50 P, and 8 plots (total area = 0.8 ha) as <50 A+P. There are two data sets. The first represents general plot and ground cover data for the 40 plots. The second represents tree composition, structure, biomass, and ecosystem service data for 4242 trees within the 40 plots. Data were collected using i-Tree Eco methodology.
Repeated vegetation monitoring for riparian forest restoration project, Santa Clara River, CA, 2015-2023.
We implemented a spatially-patterned methodology to restore 87 ha of riparian forest habitat, selectively applying multiple restoration approaches based on localized differences in degradation severity throughout the project area. This work was conducted as part of a large, collaborative effort to control invasive Arundo donax and reestablish contiguous natural habitat throughout the Santa Clara River floodplain in southern California.
SGS-LTER Long-Term Monitoring Project: Vegetation Cover on Small Mammal Trapping Webs on the Central Plains Experimental Range, Nunn, Colorado, USA 1999 -2006, ARS Study Number 118 (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-sgs/140/17. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: This data package was produced by researchers working on the Shortgrass Steppe Long Term Ecological Research (SGS-LTER) Project, administered at Colorado State University. Long-term datasets and background information (proposals, reports, photographs, etc.) on the SGS-LTER project are contained in a comprehensive project collection within the Digital Collections of Colorado (http://digitool.library.colostate.edu/R/?func=collections&collection_id=3429). The data table and associated metadata document, which is generated in Ecological Metadata Language, may be available through other repositories serving the ecological research community and represent components of the larger SGS-LTER project collection. Additional information and referenced materials can be found: http://hdl.handle.net/10217/83458. The abundance and diversity of small mammals in shortgrass steppe is strongly influenced by the structure and composition of vegetation. Vegetation structure provides cover from predators and harsh abiotic conditions. Plant species composition affects the types of seeds and herbaceous material available to granivores and herbivores, and influences arthropod populations, which are important prey for the omnivorous species that dominate in shortgrass steppe. Both vegetation structure and plant community composition are sensitive to the availability of precipitation as well as the activity of large mammalian herbivores. In 1999, we began measuring vegetation structure and plant community composition on the three grassland and three shrubland trapping webs where we live-trap small mammals

In 1999, we began measuring vegetation structure and plant community composition on the three grassland and three shrubland trapping webs where we live-trap small mammals. Vegetation measurements are made once each year, usually in mid-July. Percent canopy cover of each plant species was estimated visually in 30 0.10-m2 Daubenmire quadrats on each web. To estimate habitat structure, we measured the height of grass, forb and shrub plants adjacent to each quadrat, the density of half-shrubs, small mammal mounds and burrows, harvester ant mounds and the dimension
