The data consist of two methods performed in parallel: 1. Weed species inventory (performed as species mapping on a 2ha areal), 
focussing on full species inventory and 2. detailed community structure record (performed as surveys at three fix plots of 25m*m size), 
focussing on quantitative relationsships between crops and weeds and between single weed species. Within every year 2-3 different dates are 
recorded. For both methodologies there are abundance values avialable for every single occurring species either as spatial frequency (1) 
or as coverage values in % (2).
Available additonal data are: crop kind, crop abundance, soil type, soil nutrients, detailed climate data (from one central local station), 
detailed management data (soil tillage, pest manegement, fertilization, yields,..)</para></abstract><keywordSet><keyword>arable land</keyword><keyword>management</keyword><keyword>soil</keyword><keyword>weed</keyword></keywordSet><intellectualRights><para>Obtain permission from data set owner(s)</para></intellectualRights><coverage><geographicCoverage><geographicDescription>Lowlands in North Germany, Uckermark, Quillow watershed</geographicDescription><boundingCoordinates><westBoundingCoordinate>13.8422</westBoundingCoordinate><eastBoundingCoordinate>13.8422</eastBoundingCoordinate><northBoundingCoordinate>53.4117</northBoundingCoordinate><southBoundingCoordinate>53.4117</southBoundingCoordinate></boundingCoordinates></geographicCoverage><temporalCoverage><singleDateTime><calendarDate>1999-04-01</calendarDate></singleDateTime></temporalCoverage><taxonomicCoverage><generalTaxonomicCoverage>weed species (class), 320 (1-Inventory); 180 (2-detailed community record);
