Vertebrate Fauna Biodiversity Monitoring, Far North Queensland Rainforest SuperSite, Robson Creek, CTBCC, 2015

Monitoring of distributional and abundance data for Australian tropical rainforest vertebrates is required to inform a wide range of comparative studies on the determinants of biodiversity and assess the impacts of global climate change. The data set here serves as monitoring transects at Lamb Uplands (including Robson Creek node), for which data was collected using standarised survey techniques to assess distribution and abundance of vertebrates. It is part of a larger monitoring project that bisects latitudinal and elevational gradients across 5 mountain ranges in the Wet Tropics region. A monitory transect at Lamb Uplands (including Robson Creek node) is represented by 6 points along a 1km site for which amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals are surveyed. The dataset here represents the monitoring at 700, 900 and 1100m asl on Mt Edith in the Lamb Range Uplands with 4x 1km transects located at: LU7A (Robson ck) LU7B (Robson ck) LU9A LU11A

为开展针对生物多样性决定因素的各类比较研究，以及评估全球气候变化的影响，亟需对澳大利亚热带雨林脊椎动物的分布与种群丰度数据进行长期监测。本数据集涵盖兰姆高地（含罗布森溪监测节点）的监测样线数据，该监测工作采用标准化调查方法采集样本，以明确脊椎动物的分布范围与种群丰度。本数据集隶属于一项更大规模的监测项目，该项目在澳大利亚湿热带地区的5座山脉中，沿纬度与海拔梯度布设了全域监测样线。
兰姆高地（含罗布森溪监测节点）的单条监测样线沿1公里样地设置6个调查点位，针对两栖类、爬行类、鸟类与哺乳类四类脊椎动物开展系统调查。本数据集对应兰姆山脉高地伊迪丝山海拔700米、900米与1100米（asl，即above sea level）处的监测工作，共布设4条1公里样线，其点位编号分别为：LU7A（罗布森溪）、LU7B（罗布森溪）、LU9A、LU11A。
