Ground vegetation surveys were undertaken for the Denny Wood long and short transects in both 1996 and 2014. The long transect runs North to South and comprises 48 plots of 20m x 20m (with 2 plots not surveyed due to electrical infrastructure), please see Figures 1-10 for the ground flora vegetation surveys conducted in 1996 and 2014. The short transect runs West to East and comprises 16 plots, please see Figures 11-13 for these surveys. The 1996 maps have been redrawn from Mountford et al. 1999. Long-term change in growth, mortality and regeneration of trees in Denny Wood, an old-growth wood-pasture in the New Forest (UK). Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, 2, 223-272.
