This dataset contains flower: fruit ratio data collected for the Toolik Snowfence Experiment from 1997 to 2000. To assess fecundity of the most common ITEX plant species, we counted the total number of flowers and fruits per plot at the moist tussock (Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Eriophorum vaginatum), dry heath (Vaccinium vitis-idaea, Dryas octopetala and Arctostaphylos alpina) and snowfield (Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Casiiope tetragona) sites. Data were collected at peak season in 1997, 1998 and 2000. For more information, please see the read-me file.
