Mallee Plot Network: Vegetation Survey Data (Floristics), Western New South Wales and South Australia, Australia, 2016–2017

The Mallee Plot Network Vegetation Survey (Floristics) Data Package contains vegetation survey data for ten of the 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. The ten plots are S2011/1, S2012/1, S2012/2, S2012/4, S2012/6, S2016/7, T2011/1, T2011/2, T2011/3 and T2011/4. Between 1996 and 2011, 53 experimental sites were established on dune crests and upper slopes, of which 29 are located in Tarawi Nature Reserve, 16 are in Scotia Sanctuary and 8 are in Danggali Conservation Park. After initial censuses in three consecutive years (before and after prescribed fire) or two consecutive years (after wildfire), sites are revisited approximately every five years. 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.
