Nanangroe Plantation Plot Network: Vegetation Survey, Southwest Slopes, NSW, Australia, 2015

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This data package consists of standardised vegetation condition measurements from the Nanangroe Plantation, NSW. Surveys are done every five years in three vegetation structure plots (20 m × 20 m) nested within the 2-ha sites. This survey measures ground cover, percentage of vegetation cover, species richness and structural measurements for each plot. The principle objective of the Nanangroe study is to directly quantify changes in woodland vertebrate assemblages and their relationships with habitat variables when the surrounding landscape matrix is converted from a semi-cleared grazing landscape to a landscape dominated by an exotic softwood plantation. The study area is located in the Southwest Slopes of NSW west of Lake Burrinjuck and includes four exotic Pine Plantations (Nanangroe, Cotway, East Bungongo and Bungongo), as well as private properties adjacent those plantations. Repeated sampling of the vegetation structure and cover and selected vertebrate groups on all sites from 1998 has created a long term dataset. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Nanangroe Plantation Forest Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/nanangroe-plantation.
