Distribution of the major grass species on the Project site

The kite diagrams below are a visual representation of the distribution of Yorkshire Fog (Holcus lanatus) and Agrostis spp. across the different sections of the project site (1-9).

The distribution patterns shown are derived from mean % cover data from the belt transect surveys.  The scale is shown below diagram A.

Each row represents the change in distribution of the named species with time (1996-1998). 

1996									1997									1998
A   Yorkshire Fog									B   Yorkshire Fog									C   Yorkshire Fog
1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9
Scale									D Agrostis capillaris									E Agrostis capillaris
F   Agrostis spp.									G   Agrostis curtisii									H   Agrostis curtisii
									I   Agrostis stolonifera									J   Agrostis stolonifera
Above: There is only one diagram for all the Agrostis spp. in 1996, because the species were not seperately identified in 1996.
