UKSBA Cyprus Plant Records 2018

Study Extent

UKSBAs of Cyprus.

Sampling

A 2 x 2 km grid according to projection EPSG:32636 was used to organise sampling. Over the course of two weeks project personnel searched for naturalised, apparently naturalising, or widely planted non-native plant species across each 2 x 2 km square of the UKSBAs in Cyprus. Priority was given to locations not searched in previous field-work associated with this project GUID.

Quality Control

Three botanists determined taxa in the field, with frequent reference to relevant Floras (e.g. Meikle, Viney etc.) Records were captured in the field using ArcPad 10.2 on a GPS enabled tablet computer. All records were manually checked subsequent to field-work in the process of creating the current resource.
