Vegetation data of grasslands of coastal reserve Randu Meadows, Latvia. 5 transects (26 m) along coast line perpendicular to the coast. Each transect includes 3 regularly spaced permanently marked relevee's 4 m2 (A, B, C) . Once per year on the end of June assessment of vascular plant communities was performed by old Braun-Blanquet method

Precipitation data for coastal reserve LTER site Randu meadows, 1996-2012

Data set contains air temperature data for coastal reserve LTER site Randu meadows, Latvia, 1996-2012

The current distribution of Zostera spp. seagrass meadows along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast was studied. We used a combination of historical and recent observations of the habitat along the studied coastline. Remote sensing data (satellite images, sonar side-scans) was groundtruthed with georeferenced drop camera observations, scuba diving sampling and georeferenced scuba diving photo and video transects.

The analyses are focused on monitoring coastal sand dunes landscape (mapping) of the central Adriatic area, which are representative of Mediterranean dune ecosystems and are partially included in the long-term ecological monitoring network (LTER - site code: LTER_EU_IT_081). Based on the use of specific GIS software and integrating photo-interpretation and classification of remotely sensed data, the study depict multi-temporal changes by mapping and updating land cover and vegetation information (1954- to date) of the cast of south Abruzzo and Molise regions. Specific attention is given to the identification of the seashore, dune habitats (coastal plant communities) and land cover types at a detailed spatial scale (1:5000).
