Wellstead Estuary (WA) Seagrass 2009

This data is part of the 2013 report "Synthesis of seagrass mapping studies" conducted by the Water Science Branch of the Department of Water.Surveys were conducted by the WA Department of Water together with Geoscience Australia. The objective of these surveys was to collect baseline data on seagrass composition and distribution in key estuaries of southern and south-western WA.This data was acquired by the ACEAS Seagrass Group as part of the 2013 Australia-wide risk assessment of Seagrass.The datasets making up the Wellstead Estuary seagrass survey data are:WA_Wellstead_SAV_sites - point dataset of species presence/absence and survey methodology at each site.WA_Wellstead_SAV_polygons - polygon dataset showing interpolated percentage cover in polygons derived from site points.

本数据集源自澳大利亚水务部水科学处2013年发布的《海草制图研究综合报告》。本次调查由西澳大利亚州水务部（WA Department of Water）与澳大利亚地球科学局（Geoscience Australia）联合开展，旨在收集西澳大利亚州南部及西南沿岸重点河口的海草群落组成与分布基线数据。该数据集由ACEAS海草小组（ACEAS Seagrass Group）作为2013年全澳海草风险评估项目的组成部分采集获取。构成韦斯特德河口海草调查数据集的子数据集包括：
1. WA_Wellstead_SAV_sites：点位数据集，记录各调查点位的物种存在/缺失状况与对应调查方法；
2. WA_Wellstead_SAV_polygons：面状数据集，展示由调查点位插值得到的各斑块海草盖度百分比。
