Plant trait records for tundra vascular plant species from the Yukon, Canada, 2014-2017

This dataset contains plant trait measurements for nine plant functional traits (specific leaf area, vegetative height, reproductive height, seed mass, leaf dry matter content, wood density, leaf area, leaf fresh mass, leaf dry mass) collected in situ from tundra plant communities at three sites in the Yukon Territory, Canada. The three sites (Kluane Platueau (60.96 degN, 138.41 degW), Pika Camp (61.22 degN, 138.28 degW), Qikiqtaruk-Herschel Island (69.57 degN, 138.90 degW)) were visited annually from 2014-2017. Funding was provided by the NERC grant NE/M016323/1.

本数据集涵盖9种植物功能性状的原位测定数据，所涉性状包括比叶面积、营养株高度、生殖株高度、种子质量、叶干物质含量、木材密度、叶面积、叶鲜质量及叶干质量。数据采自加拿大育空地区三处样地的苔原植物群落，这三处样地分别为克鲁安高原（Kluane Platueau，60.96°N，138.41°W）、皮卡营地（Pika Camp，61.22°N，138.28°W）与基基塔尔克-赫歇尔岛（Qikiqtaruk-Herschel Island，69.57°N，138.90°W），并于2014至2017年间每年开展一次野外调查。本数据集的研究资金由英国自然环境研究理事会（NERC）项目编号NE/M016323/1的基金提供。
