Plot Based biodiversity monitoring of trees on island ecosystems (Terceira, Tenerife, and Réunion)

This study was conducted between 2012 and 2013 to analyze the biodiversity of woody plants across three oceanic islands (Terceira, Tenerife, and Réunion) with distinct geographical characteristics. The research aimed to investigate patterns of variation in the structure of the vegetative community within the native forests of each island. A standardized methodology was applied across the three islands, focusing on native forests that were little anthropogenic disturbance. Ten plots (50 m × 50 m) were established on each island, within which a 5 m × 5 m square was demarcated (see Borges et al., 2018a). The study generated 30 event records and 402 occurrence records

本研究于2012-2013年开展，旨在分析三座具有独特地理特征的海洋岛屿（特塞拉岛、特内里费岛、留尼汪岛）的木本植物生物多样性。研究目标为探究各岛屿原生林内植被群落结构的变异模式。研究在三座岛屿上采用标准化方法，重点关注受人为干扰较少的原生林。每座岛屿设置10个样方（50米×50米），并在每个样方内划定一个5米×5米的子区域（详见Borges等，2018a）。本研究共生成30条事件记录与402条物种出现记录。
