National Capital Region Network Forest Vegetation Monitoring Data Package - cumulative through 2024

Description

This dataset represents the forest vegetation monitoring from 2006-2024 collected by the National Capital Region Network (NCRN) Inventory and Monitoring Program. Data were collected from over 400 forest plots randomly scattered throughout National Parks in the NCR. Each of the plots was monitored a single time within a four-year return cycle. Data related to forest structure and plant community composition is reported for the region as a whole and each individual park. This data package includes information about: Trees, Shrubs, Herbaceous Vegetation, Coarse Woody Debris, Vines, and Conditions including Pests and Diseases.
