Nonmetric multidimensional scaling of Happy Creek Stand 2, Kennedy Space Center, FL, USA, transects (n = 4) sampled preburn and repeatedly after five fires from 1983 to 2019 using mean species cover ≥ 0.5 m of 16 species present in > 1 transects-time samples. Two empty samples were deleted. The final solution had 2 dimensions after 74 iterations, with a final stress of 11.46 and a final instability of less than 0.00001, and comparisons to Monte Carlo tests indicated that the reduction in stress was significant (P = 0.04)
