Plant and soil data of study plots were collected in the field in summer 2014. NDVI and topographical attributes were later extracted from three satellite images, portraying the field site and vegetation in three different years at 180, 220 and 750 DD (growing degree days with 0 C threshold). Plant species presence (1 in data) and absence (0 in data) in study plots is available for dicotyledonous vascular plants. Land cover types are based on ground-based visual judgement.
