Plant community structure on Khortytsia Island and adjacent areas after the Kakhovka Reservoir disaster (2024)

The surveys were carried out in the aftermath of the destruction of the Kakhovka Reservoir in June 2023, which drastically transformed the regional hydrological regime and ecological conditions. Field observations were conducted within a regular sampling grid using standard Braun-Blanquet phytosociological methods.

The data include species identity, abundance, and precise geographic coordinates. The dataset aims to support biodiversity monitoring, post-disaster assessment, and ecological restoration efforts in the lower Dnipro region.
