Quality Samplers undergo rigorous training in methodology. Botanical consistency is
maintained by the presence of/training by botanists skilled at identifying the
flora of DWP. Data are keyed electronically in the field to avoid transcription
errors, and samplers examine their field files immediately after sampling to
check for inaccuracies. A data manager checks data for completeness and
consistency with previous data. Taxonomic changes are incorporated into the
data as revisions to species names; in these cases the original taxon is
preserved as a separate field in the database.
Access Constraints Requests for data should be directed to the DWP Research Coordinator. Data will
be provided in electronic format.
Use Constraints Any reports or publications presenting or referring to these datasets must be
approved by the DWP Research Coordinator prior to publication. Proper credit
must be given to DWP and The Nature Conservancy.
