Data for: Topographically induced variation of microclimatic and soil conditions drives ground vegetation diversity in managed Scots pine stands on inland dunes

The data set presents results of the survey conducted in 151 plots located in three topographical positions on inland dunes in the Toruń Basin (N Poland; D – intra-dune depressions: 45 plots, N – north-facing slopes: 53 plots, S – south-facing slopes: 53 plots). In each plot, which covered 400 m2, composition of herbaceous species was determined based on presence/absence (1/0) of particular taxa; furthermore, cover of herb and moss layer was determined using percentage scale. The studied dunes were overgrown with Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) production mono-stands being at the age from 5 to 161 years.
