Mallee Plot Network: Herbivore Activity Data, Western New South Wales and South Australia, Australia, 2013

The Mallee Plot Network Herbivore Activity Data Package contains scat count data for fifty-three experimental 0.2 hectare sites which were established on dune crests and upper slopes in Tarawi Nature Reserve; Scotia Sanctuary and Danggali National Park. Sites in Tarawi NR include four herbivore exclosure pilot sites established during 1996-1998, with further herbivore exclosure sites constructed at all sites except those in Dangalli CP and the Scotia Sanctuary sites burnt in 2009 and 2010. The Mallee Plot Network research plots commenced in 1996 and were revisited annually for 3 years and then on a decadal basis. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Mallee Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/mallee
