NEON Biorepository Terrestrial Plant Collection (Herbarium Vouchers)

<p>This collection contains terrestrial plant vouchers collected from select species during plant diversity sampling (NEON sample class: div_voucher_in.voucherSampleID.pla). Plant species diversity is measured once or twice annually in the field. The plot-based method yields plant species data at multiple scales that provide an understanding of changes in composition, distribution, and abundance of native and non-native plant species. The data is comparable within and across NEON sites and to other continental plant diversity efforts to allow for a comprehensive understanding of the impacts of the drivers of change on the diversity of plant species and the functional role they play in ecological systems. A subset of observed plant species is collected and archived. These vouchers are housed at NEON facilities for reference and archived in the NEON Biorepository&#39;s herbarium. See related links below for protocols and NEON related data products.

本集合汇聚了在植物多样性采样（NEON样本类别：div_voucher_in.voucherSampleID.pla）过程中选取物种所采集的陆地植物凭证标本。植物物种多样性每年在野外进行一次或两次测量。基于样地的采样方法在多个尺度上提供植物物种数据，有助于理解原生及非原生植物物种组成、分布和丰度的变化。数据在NEON站点内及跨站点之间，以及与其他大陆植物多样性研究中的可比性，从而全面理解变化驱动因素对植物物种多样性的影响及其在生态系统中的功能作用。所观察到的植物物种子集被收集并归档。这些凭证标本存放在NEON设施中供参考，并在NEON生物资源库的标本馆中归档。下文相关链接提供了相关协议和NEON相关数据产品。
