Mean Percent Cover Of Growth Forms By Year In The Central Alaska And Arctic Network Parklands

Data summarizing percent cover of key growth forms (shrubs, dwarf shrubs, graminoids, forbs, trees, and moss) in littoral plant zones surrounding shallow lakes. Data were collected 2008-2025 in Central Alaska and Arctic Network parklands. These data were used for the publication: "Continuous and discontinuous permafrost zones exhibit divergent shifts in the littoral vegetation of shallow lakes in the arctic and subarctic" submitted to the Journal of Geophysical Research Biogeosciences.
