Data for: Detecting subtle change in species and trait composition and quantifying its uncertainty in a boreal peatland (Q10026)

Data files related to the article 'Detecting moderate change in species and trait composition and quantifying its uncertainty in a boreal peatland', collected in Siikaneva fen, Central Finland, including the following files and variables: coordinates_2005.csv: coordinates for the vegetation inventory points in year 2005 in ETRS-TM35FIN coordinate system. Column names and explanations: E.W.: East-West coordinates N.S.: North-South coordinates coordinates_2017.csv: coordinates for the vegetation inventory points in year 2017 in ETRS-TM35FIN coordinate system. Column names and explanations: E.W.: East-West coordinates N.S.: North-South coordinates cover_sphagna_2005.csv: Sphagnum moss species projection covers in year 2005 in the vegetation inventory points (point coordinates in file 'coordinates_2005.csv'). Percent projection covers with 1% accuracy are obtained by multiplying the values in the file with 100. Covers are given for the species used in the statistical model of the associated article. Column names and explanations: sphaangu: Sphagnum angustifolium sphabalt: Sphagnum balticum sphamage: Sphagnum magellanicum sphamaju: Sphagnum majus sphapapi: Sphagnum papillosum sphafall: Sphagnum fallax other: Other moss species and bare peat cover_sphagna_2017.csv: Sphagnum moss species projection covers in year 2017 in the vegetation inventory points (point coordinates in file 'coordinates_2017.csv'). Percent projection covers with 1% accuracy are obtained by multiplying the values in the file with 100. Covers are given for the species used in the statistical model of the associated article. Column names and explanations: sphaangu: Sphagnum angustifolium sphabalt: Sphagnum balticum sphamage: Sphagnum magellanicum sphamaju: Sphagnum majus sphapapi: Sphagnum papillosum sphafall: Sphagnum fallax other: Other moss species and bare peat cover_vascular_2005.csv: Vascular plant species projection covers in year 2005 in the vegetation inventory points (point coordinates in file 'coordinates_2005.csv'). Percent projection covers with 0.5% accuracy are obtained by multiplying the values in the file with 100 and then dividing by 2. Covers are given for the species used in the statistical model of the associated article.
