Victorian Alpine Plot Network (Alpine Summit Plots): Vegetation Composition Data, South-East Highlands, Australia, 2004

This Victorian Alpine Plot Network Vegetation Composition Data Package comprises plot-based vegetation data for alpine mountain summits in the Australian Alps for 2004. Twenty 1 metre squared quadrats are situated along each of four varying length permanent transects established on mountain summits. In each quadrat, plant species are assigned percentage cover abundance and species per metre squared are recorded.

The Alpine Summit plots study, which commenced in 2001, forms part of the collection of data packages by the Victorian Alpine Plot Network. 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）植被组成数据集包收录了2004年澳大利亚阿尔卑斯山区高山峰顶的样方尺度植被调查数据。在各高山峰顶设立的4条长度不等的永久样带（transect）上，每条样带均布设20个1平方米样方（quadrat）。每个样方内均记录了植物物种的百分盖度，以及每平方米内的物种数量。
本高山峰顶样地研究始于2001年，隶属于维多利亚高山样地网络的数据集合集。该网络完整项目所收集的相关数据集概览，可通过以下链接获取：http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/victorian-alpine
