Description: The GRSM Vital Signs Vegetation and Soils plot layer consist of 662 points generated through a Generalized Random Tessellation Stratified (GRTS) sampling design in the spsurvey package of R. Point locations are for potential plot locations, though a position must be accepted in the field before a vegetation and soils plot can be established. The general design of the vegetation and soils monitoring program is for plots to be on a 5 year rotation, with the year of initial plot installation being denoted in the Panel field as 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4, 5-5. Currently, there are 120 plot locations designated into one of these year classes. Besides these classes, each strata of the GRTS draw have oversample points denoted as Oversample in the Panel field, and plots that have already been rejected are given a panel value of REJ. The remaining plots are in the panel secondary denoting that they fall within a secondary Vital Signs watershed, are not not currently part of the monitoring design, though they can be added at a later date. See the GRSM Vital Signs Vegetation and Soils Monitoring Protocol (in Draft) for more information on site selection and plot locations.
