milkweed | R Documentation |
This data set contains ramet count data for 3 milkweed species observed at 10m intervals inside a 0.5m rectangle along a transect.
milkweed
A data frame with the following variables:
date: Date, the date survey was taken
round: character, the round number: 1, 2, or 3
transectID: character, id of the transect
section: character, point along the transect at which data was collected inside a 0.5m rectangle
milkweed_species: character, *common_ramet* *swamp_ramet* or *butterfly_ramet*
ramets: integer, count data of milkweed ramets observed for each of the three species within the 0.5 rectangle
**Note** Daubenmire and robel data share the same directory and are both saved with the same file name except that robel data is saved with a '2' after the .csv extension. site_transect_round.csv2
**Note** This data (milkweed ramet counts within daubenmire frames) was not collected in 2016. Data exists for years 2017-2019
Data was collected at same time and in same 0.5m square as daubenmire cover class data.
Daubenmire survey was done at 10m lengths along a permanent transect line
Observer placed a quadrant (1 meter x 0.5m rectangle) on the left side of the transect
Quadrant was placed with 1 meter edge perpendicular to the 100m tape and 0.5 meter edge extending from transect point to 0.5 meters along transect length.
Observations started at 0 meters on the transect and were taken every 10m of the transect.
Observations were at a point on the transect and did not encompass the full length of a section.
Data collection began at 0 meter starting point of the transect and stopped before the transect ended.
A transect length of 100m will have points recorded for 0 meters through 90 meters; 10 points.
Data is not taken at the final point on the transect as this area is outside the transect.
