Description

Data Records

The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 71 records.

1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Geographic Coverage

A geobotanical survey of rich fens was made on the left-bank terraces of the Em-Egan River, the right tributary of the Malaya Sosva River in the southern part of the nature reserve Malaya Sosva.

Taxonomic Coverage

179 species have been identified, including 84 species of higher vascular plants, 69 species of mosses and 26 species of liverworts.

Sampling Methods

The project involved standard protocols of a floristic and geobotanical study including herbarium collection, and description of vegetation using ecological-floral approach of the J. Brown-Blanke school.

Method step description:

1. The routes were planned in all main elements of the vegetation structure of the fen areas using Landsat 8 satellite images with a resolution of 15 m.
2. The descriptions were carried out within homogeneous contours, encompassing, as far as possible, the diversity of plant communities within the contour on the satellite image.
3. The geographical coordinates of the descriptions were determined using GPS.
4. The area of ​​descriptions ranged from 25 m^2 in homogeneous grass and moss-grass communities to 100 m^2 in fen communities with a well-marked tree layer.
5. At each site, a complete list of species of higher vascular plants, mosses and liverworts was revealed, indicating the projective cover in percent (%).
6. All species of bryophytes and liverworts were collected in the herbarium for further indentification in the laboratory.
7. The latin names for vascular plants are given according to C.K. Cherepanov [1995], mosses - according to M.S. Ignatov et al. [Ignatov et al., 2006], liverworts - according to N.A. Konstantinova et al. [Konstantinova et al., 2009].
