Oak Savanna Ground Layer Plant Diversity Across the Lower Great Lakes
Description
This dataset is part of a study to examine the condition of oak savannas in the southern Great Lakes (Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin) and to understand how management has contributed to ground layer restoration. If not destroyed, oak savanna have experienced fire suppression, causing decline in these fire dependent systems. Management includes prescribed burning, shrub layer thinning or both. The data presented here represents a summary of the raw data for structural modeling of how these management action influence savanna ground layer restoration.
