Pan Trap Data Set of Insects in a Grassland and Woodlot

The Pan Trap dataset was collected on September 29, 2014 between the hours of 2:45pm and 4:30pm. The location was at the York University Keele Campus located in Toronto, Ontario in both a woodlot and a grassland. At the onset of the lab, the researcher laid out 9 plastic bowl in the grassland, alternating between the three colours, white, yellow, and blue, and set these bowls 3m apart. Each bowl was filled halfway with soapy water. This site was left so that time could pass, allowing insects to be collected in the bowls. The researcher did the same procedure in the woodland site – laying the 3 different coloured plastic bowls out 3m a part. After approximately 35 minutes, the researcher observed the number and type of insect in each bowl. After the observation, the soapy water was disposed of and the bowls were collected. The same procedure was done in the grassland.Pan Trap数据集（Pan Trap Dataset）采集于2014年9月29日，采集时段为当日14:45至16:30。采样地点位于加拿大安大略省多伦多市约克大学基尔校区（York University Keele Campus）的林地与草地生境中。实验伊始，研究人员在草地布设9个塑料碗，以白、黄、蓝三种颜色交替排列，碗间距为3米，每个碗注入半量肥皂水。随后静置该布设区域，使昆虫自然落入碗中。研究人员在林地生境重复上述操作：布设3种颜色的塑料碗，碗间距同样为3米。约35分钟后，研究人员观测记录各碗内的昆虫数量与种类。观测结束后，妥善处置碗内肥皂水并回收塑料碗，随后在草地生境再次重复了相同的实验流程。
