Sampling event dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/gn73fg accessed via GBIF.org on 2024-08-25.Description
The dataset contains records of Vascular Flora and Habitats collected the scope of the Ecological and Complementary Measures Monitoring Programs (2012-2017) of the Environmental Impact Assessment of the Foz Tua Hydroelectric Dam, promoted by EDP – Energias de Portugal, S.A. Data were collected in the spring 2015-2017, during field visits to a variable number of sampling points, depending of the year (range: 112-145), distributed along the river Tua valley, from the mouth to 52km upstream. This dataset includes the final stages of the construction phase (2015-2016) and the flooding phase (2016-2017). A total of 16421 records of plant species or infra-specific categories was produced.Purpose
This dataset is part of a broader initiative whereby the company EDP - Energias de Portugal S.A. will make available biodiversity data collected during impact assessment and biological monitoring studies.Sampling Description
Study Extent
The data were collected along the Tua lower valley (Northeast Portugal), up to 52km from the mouth, in the municipalities of Alijó, Carrazeda de Ansiães, Murça, Vila Flor and MirandelaSampling
Sampling was based on plant inventories in permanent 50 m2 sampling plots, with production of a floristic list and quantitative assessment of the degree of coverage (in percentage) and density (number of individuals per meter square, in a semi-quantitative scale) of vascular plants. However, only the percentage cover was used in this dataset. The number of sampling plots varied along the study period: 145 in 2015; 139 in 2016 and 112 in 2017.Quality Control
