Name of the Database:
The title of your database. Please choose a name that is meaningful and understandable in a global context. Potentially accompanied by an acronym.
(required field)
Subtitle:
(fact sheet)
Optionally, you can provide an explanatory subtitle, which is not considered as part of the proper name of the database and thus is not capitalised. Subtitles are strongly recommended in cases when the proper name does not clearly indicate the scope of the database in terms of geography and and included vegetation types.

Scope
(fact sheet)
The Alaska Arctic Vegetation Archive (AVA-AK) is a regional database that is part of the larger Arctic Vegetation Archive. The database contains vegetation plots from homogeneous plant communities with tables of cover or cover-abundance scores for all species, and accompanying environmental site data. Data are collected using Braun-Blanquet, US National Vegetation Classification protocols, or comparable methods.
A concise verbal outline which kind of data are collected (i.e. criteria for inclusion)
Abstract
(fact sheet)
The Alaska Arctic Vegetation Archive (AVA-AK) is a prototype database for the Arctic Vegetation Archive (AVA). The goal of the AVA is to unite and harmonize vegetation data from the Arctic tundra biome for use in developing a pan-Arctic vegetation classification. This open-access database is the first to represent an entire global biome, utilizing a unique data dictionary and species list (Panarctic Species List; PASL beta 1.2) within the Turboveg 2 database program. The AVA-AK prototype contains complete species lists and cover estimates for homogeneous plots in typical habitats of northern Alaska including the Brooks Range, Arctic Foothills, Coastal Plain and the Seward Peninsula. The database contains over 3,026 non-overlapping vegetation plots (3,156 total plots, including repeat observations of some permanent plots). In addition to plot data, the AVA-AK contains an array of ancillary data, such as original data reports, plot photographs, plant-species cover estimates, vegetation structure, key publications and, where available, soils information, site factors, geographic coordinates, aboveground phytomass, and ground-based spectral information.

State of the database.
planned
: There are concrete plans to establish a database of the given scope, but no vegetation-plots are included so far. This category allows the announcement of projects in order to facilitate research cooperation and avoid double work.
emerging
: The database exists in a preliminary version (e.g. reduced functionality or in a database system deviating from the one planned for the final database) and contains only few vegetation-plots so far.
ongoing capture
: The database is fully functional and data are added continuously, but only a fraction of the data within the scope is captured so far.
completed and continuing
: The database is fully functional and the vast majority of past data within the scope have already been captured; now basically only newly made vegetation-plots are added.
finished
: The database is available but there are no longer activities to add further data. "
