Do you know any community-level dataset with at least 20 years since the first survey?

12 December 2017 1 9K Report

I'm looking for community-level datasets older than 20 years, at the landscape spatial-scale (i.e. multiple survey points in space), for any taxa or region.

If you know any dataset with these characteristics, please list it in the answers (hopefully with a related reference or website).

Thank a lot for your help,

All the best for 2018!

Cheers,

Any kind of community data. It could be an assessment of the entire community of any taxa, or a specific assemblage. And it could be species composition (presences-absences) or relative abundances; in just one survey or multiple surveys.

I am actually carrying out a review of databases suitable to the study of species redistribution in space and time due to environmental change, so the main filter is that it should have several survey points within a region and in a not-so-wide temporal window in the past to make predictions on the present composition of these communities using ecological modelling.

Thank for your answer Kenneth.

Cheers
