Full description

A three-factor (Warming, Drought, Heatwave) climate manipulation experiment was conducted in the Tasmanian highlands in a subalpine plant community on Bucks Marsh, Silver Plains over three years. Plant community composition data was taken annually from each of 32 plots alongside soil volumetric water content and air temperature measurements taken every 30 minutes. The annual heatwave event was logged at a finer time resolution and following the event, plant fluorescence measurements were captured for common species. These data and some associated code are uploaded here.
