Summary
Data were collected on plant abundance in Illinois with the goal of determining correlations between the abundance of dominant plant taxa and other plant species.
Summary
Data were collected on plant abundance in Illinois with the goal of determining correlations between the abundance of dominant plant taxa and other plant species.
Data were collected in order to assess relationships between the abundance of dominant plants and community measures of species richness, abundance, and evenness. Plant community data were collected in quadrats at sites in Illinois. Errors associated with data represent subsampling design of plant community data within sites.
