Three Parks Savanna Fire-effects Plot Network: Plot-based Fire Severity Monitoring, Nitmiluk National Park, Northern Territory, Australia, 2014

A total of 220 permanent monitoring plots (40 m x 20 m) were established across three parks (Kakadu, Litchfield and Nitmiluk) in 1994-1995 to monitor biotic change. Of these, 46 plots are located in Nitmuluk. These sample a variety of landform and vegetation type/habitat conditions. A substantial proportion of plots were positioned deliberately at sites likely to reveal environmental dynamics, especially at ecotones and in patches of fire-sensitive vegetation. For example stands of Callitris, sandstone heaths. As well, many plots are located at, or in the near vicinity of, intensively managed sites such as camp-grounds and other tourist destinations. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Three Park Savanna Fire-effects Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/three-parks-savanna.

1994-1995年期间，在卡卡杜（Kakadu）、利奇菲尔德（Litchfield）和尼特米卢克（Nitmiluk）三座公园内共设立了220个永久性监测样地（40米×20米），用于监测生物变化。其中46个样地位于尼特米卢克（Nitmiluk）。这些样地涵盖了多种地貌、植被类型及生境条件。相当一部分样地被特意设置在易显现环境动态的区域，尤其是在生态交错带（ecotones）和火敏感型植被斑块中，例如Callitris林分、砂岩石南灌丛。此外，许多样地位于或紧邻人工密集管理区域，如露营地及其他旅游景点。作为“三公园稀树草原火效应样地网络”（Three Park Savanna Fire-effects Plot Network）完整项目的一部分，相关数据包的概要可通过以下链接获取：http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/three-parks-savanna
