Tree, vegetation and soil information from an ecological survey of semi-natural woodlands in the English Lake District, 1969

The data contains details about plant species, trees, shrubs and soils, collected using standardized survey methods from within a selection of 48 semi-natural woodlands in the English Lake District. Nearly 300 plots were surveyed from sites across the north west of England, selected objectively from different woodland group types identified in the Lake District. The survey was carried out by the Nature Conservancy in 1969. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/272a131f-7d57-47b4-a643-c3828722d663
