A network for monitoring terrestrial ecosystems along a latitudinal gradient in Continental Antarctica.
A network for monitoring change in the vegetation communities to assess the impact of future climate changes was established in Victoria Land (Continental Antarctica) in 2002 and 2003. The network is within the framework of the SCAR project RiSCC (Regional Sensitivity to Climate Change in Antarctic...

A network for monitoring change in the vegetation communities to assess the impact of future climate changes was established in Victoria Land (Continental Antarctica) in 2002 and 2003.

The network is composed of 19 permanent plots at nine sites along a latitudinal gradient from Apostrophe Island (73°30'S, 167°50'E) to Granite Harbour (77°00'S, 162°26'E), with a main coastal transect and three subtransects inland from the coast.
