Habitat data from grassland, moorland and woodland restoration sites in South West England in 2014

This dataset contains vegetation abundance data and sward height data from a number of plots across a restoration gradient within South West England. The restoration gradient covered intensive land use (referred to in the data as reference or control), restoring and pristine habitats. Data were collected between April and July in 2014. Vegetation abundance was recorded as percentage cover of species within a 1m x 1m quadrat. Five quadrats were recorded per plot. Sward height was recorded using two methods: drop disc or direct measure. Five height measurements were taken using both methods at each site. To protect the anonymity of private landholders, details of sampling plot location is not provided with this dataset. The data were collected by the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology as part of the Tellus South West project.

本数据集收录了来自英国西南部多个样地，在恢复梯度范围内的植被丰度和草地高度数据。恢复梯度涵盖了集约化土地利用（数据中称之为参照或对照）、恢复及原始栖息地。数据采集于2014年4月至7月期间。植被丰度以物种在1米x1米样方内的覆盖率百分比进行记录。每个样地记录五个样方。草地高度采用两种方法进行测量：投掷圆盘法或直接测量法。在每个地点，均使用两种方法进行了五个高度测量。为保护私人土地所有者的匿名性，本数据集未提供采样样地位置的详细信息。数据由生态与水文研究中心作为Tellus South West项目的一部分进行采集。
