TERN Surveillance Monitoring program: Plant Specimen
This dataset lists plant species vouchered for identification from Rangeland sites across Australia by the TERN Surveillance Monitoring team, using standardised AusPlots methodologies. <br />
Plant specimens are methodologically collected at each site as part of the AusPlots Vegetation vouchering method. Recorded information includes the site, date of collection and a voucher barcode. The specimen data is updated with the identification date and authority details when species identification is confirmed by the Herbaria.
<br />
Plant population and community, soil, basal area and structural information are also assessed at each site. See AusPlots Vegetation vouchering and Rangelands Vocabularies for a list of parameters collected. </br>

- Purpose
- Collation of data from Australian rangelands will: <br />increase understanding of the dynamics of plant species and soils; <br /> provide input into DNA barcoding of Australian vegetation; <br /> help understand the biogeography underpinning and threatening processes impacting Australian rangeland ecosystems; <br />assist state and federal agencies to meet their monitoring and reporting obligations; <br />enable researchers and land managers to assess current land 'state' for a variety of purposes depending on how the data is used; <br />identify the climate zones, bioregions, land types and ecosystems where changes are occurring and the management regimes and/or pressures contributing to these changes.
