Victorian Alpine Plot Network (Alpine Long term Monitoring - Community Changes): Plot Details - Spatial Coordinates, South-east Highlands, Australia

The Victorian Alpine Plot Network Plot-data Package contains plot-data collected at eighty-nine sites situated in the Australian Alps. Randomly positioned transects are situated within sites rather than ‘plots’ sensu stricto. The number of transects within sites, and sampling frequency varies from annual to decadal, depending on site and purpose.

This is part of a much larger dataset that spans from 1944, when plot were set up to document long-term changes in ecosystem composition and structure in relation to disturbance (see methods for more information). The Victorian Alpine Plot Network research plots are revisited on a 2-10 years basis. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Victorian Alpine Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/victorian-alpine

维多利亚高山样地网络（Victorian Alpine Plot Network）样地数据包收录了澳大利亚阿尔卑斯山区89个样点的采集数据。样点内布设的是随机定位的样带（transect），而非严格意义上的样地（plots sensu stricto）。各样点的样带数量与采样频率存在差异，周期从每年一次至十年一次不等，具体取决于样点类型与研究目标。
本数据集为一项更大规模数据集的组成部分，该数据集的时间跨度始于1944年——当年设立样地的初衷是记录生态系统组成与结构在受干扰条件下的长期变化（详细信息可参阅研究方法部分）。维多利亚高山样地网络的研究样地每2至10年重访一次。
