ABoVE: Vegetation Composition across Fire History Gradients on the Y-K Delta, Alaska : Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE)
This dataset provides ecological field data that were collected from 43 plots spanning gradients of fire history in the upland tundra of Yukon-Kuskokwim (Y-K) Delta, Alaska, during July 2017 and July 2018. Plot-level data include vegetation species composition and structure, Leaf Area Index (LAI), t...
