Stordalen Mire mire-wide survey: Vegetation cover

Vegetation % cover, cover classes, and locations for all mire-wide plots in Stordalen Mire, northern Sweden, sampled in July 2015. 

Class = the 5-category classification of Malmer et al., 2005.  Cover type = the 3-category classification of Bäckstrand et al., 2008.

Each of the 75 plots had 64 subplots that were each quantified for % cover, such that the total plot-level %cover=Sum(species)/64. 

Sum(SUM) is total of all other Sum() columns. Sum(0) and Sum(0 2) are data compilation checks.
