How are scores calculated?

Your group's overall score reflects how closely your reported values match the group averages, calibrated against historical performance across all training years. The overall score is based on the average of the scores below for species abundance, blade length, and short shoot density. To learn more about how scores are calculated, check out the scoring document.
