It is collected in 32 plots (plot_type) from different treatment (seedtrap/control/ seedbank) in eight sites (site) and from different grassland type (type: restored/reference) over two years (month). The data is collected on 50 x 50 cm plot level. The second dataset (Raw_pool) contains the species presence in the surrounding of experiment (pool) with values describing their frequency (pool_freq=1-5) within the 40 inventoried plots (five 1 × 1 m plots per grassland). Empty values in the plant species lists read as NA´s. The detailed description of the experiment can be found in the Methods section of the paper (DOI..). Overview of each grassland site used in the experiment can be found in Table 1 of the related paper. Access to data through an external actor. Åtkomst till data via extern aktör.
