Brief description

This Victorian Alpine Plot Network Road Transects 4WD Track Data Package comprises transect-based vegetation data for two Lowland-to-highland 4WD Roadside Transects in the South-East Highlands, Australia. These data have been used against background quadrat data to test a hypothesis about roads as vectors for dispersal of invasive species. Plots are located at altitudinally stratified intervals along two altitudinally-stratified transects. The transects follow major roads and management tracks in the Victorian Alps. Each track is divided into altitudinal sectors in which a single plot is situated. Within each plot, all species are identified and are assigned abundance and cover scores.
