Description
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 385 records.
3 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Sampling Methods
GLORIA Target region The site lies in the alpine zone of Hochschwab in the NE-Alps. It is defined as a standard Target region of the GLORIA network (www.gloria.ac.at). Hochschwab_GLORIA was the networks first test site for standardised monitoring of alpine summit vegetation established in 1998. Regular monitoring started in 2001 as part of the EU-FP-5 project GLORIA-Europe. All permanenent plots were resurveyed in 2008 and in 2015. The site consists of 4 separate summit sites arranged along the elevation gradient between 1910 and 2255m. The main scientific purpose is to detect impacts of climate change on alpine vegetation and its biodiversity. In addition, downslope transects to the treeline ecotone were established in 2008, diversity of soil nematodes were studied at the GLORIA summit areas and the region was part of an assessment of useful plants of the alpine life zone.

Method step description:
- Vegetation cover data were collected according to the GLORIA Field Manual: https://gloria.ac.at/downloads/Manual_5thEd_ENG.pdf (p 38); on each of four summits, the four 1x1m corner plots of a 3x3m grid in each cardinal direction 5m below the highest summit point (GLORIA Field Manual, p 31) and abundance data collected according to the GLORIA Field Manual: https://gloria.ac.at/downloads/Manual_5thEd_ENG.pdf: 1=very rare, 2=rare, 3=rare-scattered, 4=scattered, 5=scattered-common, 6=common, 7=common-dominant, 8=dominant (cf. p 41f.) dimless;each of four summits is divided in 4 summit area sections from 0-5 m below the highest summit point and from 5-10 m below the highest summit point (GLORIA Field Manual, p 34) at Hochschwab (Austria).
