Scoring Curve
The scoring engine could not generate a curve for this benchmark context. The primary form is Point, but the benchmark data may be missing required fields (e.g., optimal range bounds for an OptimalRange benchmark). This is typically a data quality issue in the benchmark pipeline.
Evidence & Context
"Medium to Small Tufted Graminoid. 6. 20% MTG."
Summed projected foliage cover of native Medium to Small Tufted Graminoids (MTG) within a standard 0.1 hectare plot assessment.
