Mallee Plot Network: Weather Station Data, Western New South Wales and South Australia, Australia, 2015

These data are the rainfall readings from sites in Tarawi Nature Reserve and Scotia Sanctuary. Between 1996 and 2011, 53 experimental sites were established on dune crests and upper slopes, of which 29 are located in Tarawi Nature Reserve, 16 are in Scotia Sanctuary and 8 are in Danggali Conservation Park. After initial censuses in three consecutive years (before and after prescribed fire) or two consecutive years (after wildfire), sites are revisited approximately every five years. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Mallee Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/mallee.本数据集收录了塔拉威自然保护区（Tarawi Nature Reserve）与斯科蒂亚保护区（Scotia Sanctuary）内各监测站点的降雨观测数据。1996年至2011年间，研究团队在沙丘脊线与上坡区域共设立53个试验样地，其中29个位于塔拉威自然保护区，16个位于斯科蒂亚保护区，剩余8个位于当加利保护公园（Danggali Conservation Park）。在完成连续三年的初始普查（覆盖计划火烧实施前后时段）或连续两年的初始普查（针对野火发生后的监测）后，研究人员约每五年对各试验样地进行一次重访监测。作为马里利样地网络（Mallee Plot Network）完整监测计划的一部分所采集的相关数据集概要，可通过以下链接获取：http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/mallee。
