Data for: Vegetation succession on landslides in Hong Kong: plant regeneration, survivorship and constraints to restoration

This dataset contains the raw data of the three censuses of vegetation surveys over the first 8.5 years on eight landslide trails in Hong Kong. The vegetation survey was conducted in a systematic and comparable approach, where at least three 5 m x 5 m quadrat were placed along each landslide trails. The dataset contains results of both woody and non-woody components in the censuses. The dataset was used for the analysis in the research article "Vegetation succession on landslides in Hong Kong: plant regeneration, survivorship and constraints to restoration" submitted to the Global Ecology and Conservation.
