Full description
There is a biological and a spatial component to the dataset.Biological data: This was collated from several sources, collected over the period 2000-2009 and used in the analyses for the paper Diversity patterns of seasonal wetland plant communities mainly driven by rare terrestrial species (Deane et al - Biodiversity and Conservation, DOI: 10.1007/s10531-016-1139-1).
Biological data were pre-processed to remove sampling bias (the method is described in the paper). Data are presence-absence of 215 native plant species (i.e., exotic species removed) from 76 seasonal wetlands (size range 0.5 - 35 ha) located on the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia (centred on latitude 35.5 °S).
Spatial data:
For each of the 76 wetlands a small amount of spatial data is also provided. Area, centroids, elevation and catchment.
Note this is Version 2 (Updates errors in biol_aekos.csv V1.0, spatial_aekos.csv and metadata, replaces old http://dx.doi.org/10.4227/05/57156D28991DF)
