Project Description

Project Title:  View help for Project Title Vegetation cover and functional traits showing effect of stream restoration on plant communities in northern New Mexico
Summary:  View help for Summary This data publication contains vegetation cover and functional traits data from a Before-After-Control-Impact (BACI) designed study that evaluated the impacts of two stream restoration techniques on plant communities: beaver dam analogs (BDAs) and plug-and-ponds. This study took place in 2020-2022 within northern New Mexico along San Antonio Creek, Rio Cebolla, Comanche Creek, and Vidal Creek. Tabular data include vegetation cover measurements recorded on 1 square meter plots along multiple transects and distances from the channel, at eight stream restoration control and impact sites. Additionally, vegetation functional traits for the species found on these sites were acquired from the USDA PLANTS Database. Information such as growth habit, growth form, and lifespan are included.
