Description

This data set contains informations about 33 ponds in De Maten reserve (Genk, Belgium).

Usage

data(kcponds)

Format

tab

: a data frame with 15 environmental variables(columns) on 33 ponds(rows)

area

: an object of class area

xy

: a data frame with the coordinates of ponds

neig
