Biodiverskripsi seeks to increase the accessibility of local biodiversity research in Indonesia by collating ecological monitoring data inherent in student theses in a sustainable platform to ease its use in a larger scope of research. We expect this initiative to fill the knowledge gap regarding Indonesian ecological data, to assist more advanced and impactful researches such as designing a conservation area or modelling the effect of climate change on biodiversity, and further improve scientific practices in Indonesian universities.Purpose
The data aimed to evaluate research practices in Indonesian universities, particularly the ones related to biodiversity. We seek to understand how undergraduate student theses contribute to Indonesia's biodiversity data and help biodiversity conservation and research.Sampling Description
Study Extent
Data came from various biodiversity assessment studies that were conducted in various ecosystems all over Indonesia.Sampling
We transcribed theses that were resulted from biodiversity research that were submitted to their university on the period of 2000-2017 from Universitas Sumatera Utara, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Universitas Papua, Universitas Indonesia, and Institut Pertanian Bogor.Method steps
- The volunteers selected potential theses titles from the library catalogue, examine the theses to get data required for sampling-event data, transcribe the resulting information to Darwin Core fields for sampling-event data. The examination procedure ensured that the theses include enough information on the sampling protocol to reproduce the study and that the taxonomic information of the species sampled were clear. Studies that obtain species occurrence data from ex situ observation (zoo, captive breeding, introduced species, etc.) and literature were omitted. Information about the theses were provided in the literature extension.
