Locations of moss bed quadrats at Antarctic Specially Protected Area 135 and Robinson Ridge, Windmill Islands, Antarctica

The data are comprised of a spreadsheet with locations (latitude and longitude) of the centres of moss bed quadrats and labels for the quadrats. The quadrats are located at two sites: Antarctic Specially Protected Area 135 near Casey and on Robinson Ridge south of Casey. The letter in the quadrat la...

Description
Summary:The data are comprised of a spreadsheet with locations (latitude and longitude) of the centres of moss bed quadrats and labels for the quadrats. The quadrats are located at two sites: Antarctic Specially Protected Area 135 near Casey and on Robinson Ridge south of Casey. The letter in the quadrat label indicates the vegetation community type: B for Bryophyte, T for Transitional and L for Lichen. The latitudes and longitudes were obtained by Diana King, PhD candidate, School of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong on 29 October 2014. See the Quality section of this record for the procedure used. The locations are shown in maps 14450 and 14451 in the SCAR Map Catalogue (see Related URLs). These locations supersede the quadrat locations which are a subset of the data described by the metadata record 'Moss beds at Casey: detailed map of experimental sites', Entry ID: ASAC_1313_Casey_Moss_Map_2003.
