Methodology
- Sampling
As this datasets include occurences from several campaigns, different methodologies were used for the data collection.
In the case of birds, herpetofauna and mammals observations, they were made through the observation along some linear transects already defined. The transects were 500 m long and 50 meters wide, having a total extension of 25000 square meters.
In some occasions, the observations were made in particular spots which were not necessarily part of the transects. In this case, the datasets specifies "ad hoc observation" which was also made for an hour.
In the case of flora, the sampling was made by Point Quadrat and the extension was 50 meters.- Study extent
The campaigns were made all along the Aguada Pichana Este site in Neuquén.
- Quality control
To ensure the quality of the data, there were always 2 observers for the data collection.
For the identification, when in doubt, the observations were checked with the corresponding bibliography.- Method steps
The transects were traversed by foot by 2 observers.
The organisms were identified both by direct and indirect observations
