Data from: Monitoring and predictive mapping of floristic biodiversity along a climatic gradient in ENSO's terrestrial core region, NW Peru

This is the data from the publication "Monitoring and predictive mapping of floristic biodiversity along a climatic gradient in ENSO's terrestrial core region, NW Peru" (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ecog.05091/abstract). The code (including figures, appendices and the manuscript) can be found directly in the GitHub repository. <strong>Data sources and description</strong> Column descriptions for all tables can be found in <em>variable_description.ods. </em>Following tables are stored in <em>tables.gpkg</em>: plot_species_matrix_2011: Plot species matrix recorded in 2011 plot_species_matrix_2012: Plot species matrix recorded in 2012. plot_species_matrix_2016: Plot species matrix recorded in 2016. plot_species_matrix_2017: Plot species matrix recorded in 2017. lifeform: Lifeforms of the recorded species plot_variables: Variables specific to the plots such as height of the first tree layer, cover of dead wood, etc. soil: Edaphic variables. topography: Topographic variables. streets: Streets and dirt tracks in the study area. towns: Polygons displaying the outline of the cities Paita, Piura and Chulucanas. rivers: Lines displaying the major rivers in the study area. study_area: Outline of the study area. peru: Outline of Peru. neighbors: Outline of Peru's neighbors (Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador). coast: Coastal strip of and close to the study area. precipitation: Precipitation measured at the three climatic stations (Paita, Piura, Chulucanas). experiment_count: species counted per visit (irrigation-fertilization experiment). experiment_irrigation: Rain input by time during the irrigation-fertilization experiment. experiment_cover: Cover of each plant species per visit and per experimental plot (irrigation-fertilization experiment).本数据集源自论文《秘鲁西北部厄尔尼诺-南方涛动（ENSO）核心陆地区域沿气候梯度的植物区系生物多样性监测与预测制图》（原文链接：http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ecog.05091/abstract）。相关代码（含图表、附录与手稿）可直接从GitHub仓库获取。 <strong>数据来源与说明</strong> 所有表格的列字段说明可在<em>variable_description.ods</em>中查阅。以下表格存储于<em>tables.gpkg</em>中： plot_species_matrix_2011：2011年记录的样地物种矩阵； plot_species_matrix_2012：2012年记录的样地物种矩阵； plot_species_matrix_2016：2016年记录的样地物种矩阵； plot_species_matrix_2017：2017年记录的样地物种矩阵； lifeform：记录物种的生活型； plot_variables：样地专属变量，如第一层林木高度、枯木盖度等； soil：土壤理化变量； topography：地形变量； streets：研究区域内的道路与土路； towns：展示派塔（Paita）、皮乌拉（Piura）与丘卢卡纳斯（Chulucanas）城市轮廓的面状要素； rivers：研究区域内主要河流的线状要素； study_area：研究区域轮廓； peru：秘鲁国家轮廓； neighbors：秘鲁邻国（玻利维亚、巴西、智利、哥伦比亚、厄瓜多尔）轮廓； coast：研究区域及邻近区域的海岸带； precipitation：三座气候监测站（派塔、皮乌拉、丘卢卡纳斯）测得的降水量； experiment_count：每次调查记录的物种数量（灌溉-施肥实验相关数据）； experiment_irrigation：灌溉-施肥实验中随时间变化的降雨输入量； experiment_cover：每次调查中各实验样地内各植物物种的盖度（灌溉-施肥实验相关数据）。
