Golden Rod Transect Data

A 25m transect was placed vertically through a field on the York University Campus. The distance from the beginning of the transect (in cm), the height (in cm), the number of live leaves and flower bundles as well as how crowded the plant's stem range was on a scale of 0-3 of 51 random Golden Rod plants within 50cm of the transect tape was recorded.

在约克大学校园内的一块田地中，垂直布设了一条长度为25米的样带（transect）。研究人员对该样带卷尺50厘米范围内的51株随机选取的一枝黄花（Golden Rod）植株进行了数据记录，共采集以下指标：植株距样带起点的距离（单位：厘米）、植株高度（单位：厘米）、活叶数量与花簇数量，以及按0-3级评分的植株茎丛拥挤程度。
