Collection Started (MM/DD/YY): 10/28/92 Collection Ended: 04/30/93

General Location Where Data Was Collected: Parramore Island

Form of the Data: Column


Dataset Description

This contains coordinates (UTM zone 18N, NAD27) for permanent vegetation plots on Parramore Island. Plots were established using a uniform random number generator to generate random coordinates. One hundred of the random points that fell on the upland portion of Parramore Island (based on the McCaffrey vegetation maps) were selected as plot centers.
Publications using data from the Virginia Coast Reserve Long-Term Ecological Research Project should cite the dataset and its originators. Additionally, they should include the following paragraph:

Project Description and Goals

This project focuses on mapping vegatation in 100 randomly-located permanent plots on Parramore Island.

Project Methods

Plot locations were generated using a random-number generator to create random sets of coordinates. These coordinates were then overlaid on the McCaffrey Vegetation Map for Parramore Island and 100 coordinate pairs that fell on the upland part of the island were used.

Each plot was a 1/12 ha circle centered on the plot coordinates. Within that plot trees were mapped and several randomly located subplots were used to measure vegetation cover.
