Abstract

Plant cover estimates were collected from Bouteloua grasslands at 3 different LTER (SGS, SEV, JRN) sites in summer of 1996/1997. The purpose of the data collection was to compare species composition and diversity between LTER sites and sandy grassland sites in Hungary.

Spatial coverage

McKenzie Flats is located within the northeastern section of the Sevilleta NWR, encompassing an area from Black Butte south to Palo Duro Canyon and east to the Los Pinos.The SGS-LTER site encompassed a large portion of the Colorado Piedmont Section of the western Great Plains. The site was bounded on the west by the Central Plains Experimental Range (CPER), located 61 km east of Fort Collins and 40 km northeast of Greeley in Weld County, Colorado.Jornada Experimental Range is located in the northern Chihuahuan Desert, approximately 25 km northeast of Las Cruces, New Mexico, USA (+32.5 N, -106.8 W, elevation 1188 m). Annual precipitation is 24 cm and maximum temperatures average 13 C in January and 36 C in June.
