Arctic Vegetation Plots at Imnavait Creek, Alaska, 1984-1985

This dataset provides environmental, soil, and vegetation data collected during the periods of August 1984 and August-September 1985 from 84 study plots at the Imnavait Creek research site. Imnavait Creek is located in a shallow basin at the foothills of the central Brooks Range. Data includes the baseline plot information for vegetation, soils, and site factors for the study plots subjectively located in 14 plant communities that occur in 19 broad habitat types across the glaciated landscape. Specific attributes include: dominant vegetation species, cover, indices, and biomass pools; soil chemistry, physical characteristics, moisture, and organic matter. This product brings together for easy reference all the available information collected from the plots that has been used for the classification, mapping, and analysis of geo-botanical factors in the Imnavait Creek region and across Alaska.

本数据集收录了于1984年8月至1985年8月至9月期间，在伊纳瓦伊特溪研究站84个研究样地中收集的环境、土壤和植被数据。伊纳瓦伊特溪位于中央布鲁克斯山脉山麓的浅盆地中。数据包括植被、土壤和站点因素的基础样地信息，这些因素主观地分布于14个植物群落中，而这些群落跨越了19种广泛的栖息地类型，分布于冰川地貌。具体属性包括：主要植被物种、覆盖度、指数和生物量库；土壤化学成分、物理特性、含水量和有机质。本产品汇集了所有可用于伊纳瓦伊特溪地区以及阿拉斯加地区地理植物因素分类、制图和分析的样地收集信息，以便于查阅。
