Great Smoky Mountains National Park Vegetation Monitoring Plots – 2003 – 2009 (Jenkins Plots)

This database includes all data related to long-term vegetation monitoring performed by GRSM I&M staff from 2003-2009. Data collection methods follow Jenkins 2008 protocol, and are generally referred to as the GRSM Vegetation Monitoring plots. This program ended in 2009 and was replaced with the Vital Signs program, however, this database will still occasionally be updated as research partners revisit plots.
