Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) occurrence data in watersheds in western Kentucky (Ledbetter Creek) and western Tennessee (Panther Creek).Sampling Description
Study Extent
June to December 2008, in two similar watersheds in western Kentucky and Tennessee.Sampling
63 random sampling points were assigned to two watersheds based on the aerial maps. We established 32 sampling points at the Ledbetter Creek Watershed and 31 sampling points at the Panther Creek Watershed. Each sampling point contained 10 to 20 plots, each 1-m x 1-m in size. Th e plots were distributed approximately 15 m apart along the transect lines. Each transect length was determined by measuring the distance from the sampling point to the main road. We collected data from 210 plots within the Ledbetter Creek Watershed and 323 plots within the Panther Creek Watershed.Method steps
- no repeated steps were taken.
