Victorian Alpine Plot Network (Phenology Studies): Plot Details - Spatial Coordinates, South-east Highlands, Australia 

This package contains spatial data relating to surveys conducted for the Phenology Studies project. Transects were established at an altitudes of 1400 m to 1880 m. These transects were established as a natural experiment - to provide infrastructure to validate the findings from the ATEX manipulated, experimental plots. The aim is to describe the phonological responses of alpine plants to environmental variables and assess the usefulness of this measure to assess vulnerability to changing abiotic (e.g. climate) and biotic (e.g. invasive species) factors. This is part of a dataset that spans from during data collected in 2011 to document long-term effects directly through climate and indirectly through biotic interactions (see methods for more information). The Victorian Alpine Plot Network research plots are revisited 4 times per year.
