Windmill Islands vegetation monitoring quadrat photographs 2003-2013 (10 years)

Brief description

This record contains digital photographs collected for the Windmill Islands long term vegetation monitoring program, conducted between 2003 and 2014, under projects ASAC_1313, AAS_3042 and AAS_4046. These photographs include photographs showing the transect and quadrat locations, photographs of each quadrat to assess vegetation cover/health in 2003, 2008, 2012 and 2013 (data presented in separate metadata record: doi:10.4225/15/59d454f962bd6), and photographs yet to be analysed.
Quadrat location data at two sites in the Windmill Islands (ASPA 135 and Robinson Ridge) are provided in metadata ID: AAS_4046_quadrat_locations
(http://data.aad.gov.au/aadc/metadata/metadata.cfm?entry_id=AAS_4046_quadrat_locations).
And shown in two maps which are available via the AADC map catalogue:

Baseline survey was described in Metadata ID ASAC_1313_Transects_2002-03; five and 10 year surveys described in ASAC_1313_Transects_2007-08 and AAS_4046_Transects_2012-13, respectively.
Data summary for entire Windmill Islands long term vegetation monitoring program is presented in the metadata record doi:10.4225/15/59d454f962bd6.
