| Summary: | This is the final dataset associated with the publication, “Greater variation in boreal plant community composition and community-level traits at local- than regional-scale”, published in the Journal of Vegetation Science (2023). This dataset includes three primary files: the plant community composition dataset the associated environmental variables dataset the plant functional trait dataset A fourth file containing geospatial reference data for the four study sites is also included. Combined, the community composition and trait datasets were used to calculate the community-weighted means presented in the manuscript. These data explored how plant community composition and traits change across the latitudinal extent of the boreal biome of western North America, from central Saskatchewan to the northern treeline near Inuvik, NT. In this study, we selected four boreal peatlands sites and within each site, sampled across dominant topoedaphic and/or hydrologic gradients to explore variation both within sites ... |
