Experimental Design Dataset

In a group of 5, a 50m transect was laid out from the edge of a pond to the edge of a grassland. At each 10m interval (including the 0m interval), 2 quadrats were laid out; one on each side of the transect. The species of plants in each quadrat were recorded along with the average height of the species between the 2 quadrats (measured in inches using a measuring tape) as well as the average coverage of each species between the 2 quadrats (estimated as a percentage). This process was repeated for the area between the edge of the same pond and the edge of a road (disturbance).
