    • Bering Land Bridge Grazing Exclosures Database

    Metadata Updated: January 16, 2026

    To monitor the impact of grazing by caribou and other ungulates on vegetation in Bering Land Bridge National Park, 17 exclosures were installed in the summer of 2012 and one in 2007. These exclosures consist of 9 by 9 m of chainlink fencing, which prevented grazers from reaching vegetation plots within. Two plots within the fencing were paired with two unexclosed plots outside the fencing. All plots were measured in 2012 for lichen, bryophyte and vascular plant cover and species composition by point intercept methods. The first remeasure of the plots took place in 2022. This reference contains a relational Access database containing environmental plot data, GPS locations, plant data, ground data and detailed meta data. The data are also available in flat files.
