This dataset holds information of woody plants on 60 small tropical islands located in the Raja Ampat archipelago in Indonesia. The dataset includes occurrence data for 57 species.Sampling Description
Study Extent
The dataset includes 40 small islands located in the Raja Ampat archipelago in West Papua, Indonesia. Botanical field surveys were conducted during six months between June 2016 to February 2018.Sampling
To sample species occurrences, we used a transect design subdivided into plots. All transects had a dimension of 2 x 10 m and comprised of five 2 x 2 m plots. The number of transects on an island was roughly proportional to the island area. We recorded all species with a diameter at breast height ≥2 cm rooted within the plots.
