Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network: Herpetofaunal Search Data, Booderee National Park, Jervis Bay Territory, 2013

This herpetofaunal search data package comprises herpetofaunal data recorded during time-controlled active searches along permanent 100 m long transects along which three artificial substrates have been incorporated. At the 20 m and 80 m points along each transect two sheets of corrugated iron, four roof tiles and four half-length railway sleepers, are situated. Searches for reptiles and frogs are conducted bi-annually, once in August and again in December of each year. The Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network was established in 2002 in Booderee National Park in the Jervis Bay Territory, South-eastern Australia. The study location is a floristically diverse area in which fire history has been well-documented over several decades. The plot network’s objectives involve quantifying the inter-relationships between natural disturbance and/or management intervention (including weed and feral animal control and prescribed burning) and the reciprocal changes in vegetation condition and biodiversity response. The Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network study forms part of the collection of data packages by this plot network. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/jervis-bay-booderee-national-park.

本两栖爬行动物调查数据集套件包含通过定时主动巡查获取的两栖爬行动物数据，巡查沿永久100米样带开展，每条样带均布设三类人工遮蔽基质。在每条样带的20米与80米点位处，分别放置2块波纹铁板、4片屋顶瓦及4根半长铁路枕木。该爬行动物与蛙类调查每年开展两次，分别为每年8月与12月。杰维斯湾布德里国家公园样带网络（Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network）于2002年在澳大利亚东南部杰维斯湾领地的布德里国家公园内正式建立。本研究样地为植物区系多样性丰富的区域，数十年来的火灾历史均有完整存档记录。该样带网络的研究目标为量化自然干扰与/或管理干预（包括杂草防控、外来动物防治及计划火烧）之间的相互关系，以及植被状况与生物多样性响应的双向动态变化。杰维斯湾布德里国家公园样带网络的本项研究，属于该样带网络所归集的数据集套件之一。杰维斯湾布德里国家公园样带网络完整项目所收集的相关数据集套件概况，可通过以下网址查询：http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/jervis-bay-booderee-national-park。
