Data supporting: Morphological traits and species diversity determine vegetation patterns in Alxa plateau in NW China

A intergret dataset of vegetation investigation in Alxa plateau in NW China to explore the interralationship of abiotic and biotic factors that affect the patch size distribution. And another dataset of the relative abundence of shrub species inhabited in the area to show the convergence and dissimilarity of morphorlogical traits under climate and soil gredient. Further information including detailed methods is including in the manuscript and its supporting information.
