Description

In 1999 the Forest Service of the Government of Navarre set up two experimental sites in Western Pyrenees (Navarra, NE Spain) to study the effect of different thinning intensities over Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) stands in nine plots (30 x 40 m) per site. From 2000 to 2019 were recorded the species occurrences of vascular plants and bryophytes, and their cover measured in percentage, in ten 2 x 2 m quadrats per plot in both sites. The species checklist of each site is provided, based in the first recorded occurrence, with the geographical coordinates referred to the centroid of each site.

Sampling Description

Study Extent

The sites are located in Western Pyrenees (Navarre, NE Spain) and vegetation consists in Scot pine (Pinus sylvestris) dominated forests mixed with broad-leaved trees. The first site is Aspurz (municipality of Navascués), in a north facing oriented foothill (625 m a.s.l.), with a sub-Mediterranean climate transitional between temperate and Mediterranean, with a mild water deficit during summer; mean annual precipitation is 937 mm and mean annual temperature 12.0ºC. Forest landscape is composed by extensive secondary pine woodlands, patches of Fagus sylvatica located in norward solpes with favored water balance, Quercus rotundifolia woodlands in the driest biotopes and Quercus pubescens woodlands elsewhere. The second site is Krutxaga (municipality of Garde) in a north-west facing oriented slope (1335 m a.s.l.), with a temperate and continental climate without water deficit during summer; mean annual precipitation is 1346 mm and mean annual temperature 9.4ºC. Forest landscape is composed by extensive primary and secondary pine woodlands and patches of Fagus sylvatica.

Sampling

The occurence and cover of plant species was recorded in 10 permanent quadrats (2 x 2 m) per plot along two parallel transects (5 quadrats per transect) every summer from 2000 to 2019.

Method steps

Within each quadrat all vascular plants and some of the commonest bryophytes were identified and their horizontal cover was estimated in percentage. The bryophytes less common were recorded as a group.

Taxonomic Coverages

Geographic Coverages

Recorded species in two sites of Western Pyrenees. Aspurz (42.709798,-1.147014) and Garde (42.807810, -0.880249).
