02 9385 2111 david.keith@unsw.edu.au This data package comprises data that were used to produce the graph and conclusions found in figure 7.56 on page 263 of Lindenmayer et. al 2014, Biodiversity and Environmental Change: Monitoring Challenges and Directions. These data show the spread of Cinnamon Water Mould (Phytophthera cinnamomi) across 5 transects in Freycinet National Park, Tasmania. The transects sample different methods of treatment that are designed to alieviate the spread of the disease. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Upland Heath Swamps Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/upland-heath-swamps.

Five Belt transects (C, 1, 2, 3, 4) were established comprising 10 continguous 2 x 2 m plots aligned in a west to east direction and marked with short star pickets in corners, 300m east of Middletone Creek dam in Freycinet National Park, Tasmania.

20 x star pickets

Management treatment Transect C — No treatment, transect located upslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 Management treatment Transect 1 — Sprayed with 0.3% phosphonate in canola oil emollient in October and December 1995 , transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 Management treatment Transect 2 — Sprayed with 0.3% phosphonate in canola oil emollient in October and December 1995 , transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 Management treatment Transect 3 — No treatment, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 Management treatment Transect 4 — No treatment, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994

All vascular plant species were recorded within 1 x 1 m quadrats located in the middle of each 2 x 2 m plot, Quadrats were surveyed in years 1996, 1998 (transects C and 4 only), 2000 and 2012

A frequency estimate was calculated for each species in each transect by dividing the number of presence records by the total number of quadrats searched (10)

Bray-Curtis dissimilarity values were calculated between all pairwise combinations of observations (each transect at each survey time). A multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) ordination was calculated in two dimensions from 10 random starts. Stress of best configuration was 0.16.

Transects 1, 2 and 3 were not sampled in 1998, only 6 quadrats were surveyed in Transect 4 NA 1433897600285 Data Owner These data were curated and published with strategic funds from a TERN initiative to publish long term data packages from the book Lindenmayer et al. 2014 Biodiversity and Environmental Change: Monitoring, Challenges and Direction. Since 2012 the Upland Heath Swamps Plot Network has been part of the Long Term Ecological Research Network (LTERN). This work was supported by the Australian Government’s Terrestrial Ecosystems Research Network (www.tern.org.au) – an Australian research infrastructure project established under the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy and Education Infrastructure Fund–Super Science Initiative through the (now) Department of Education and Training. kuhs_phytophthora_cinnamomi_floristics_1996-2012_p370t633.csv Raw data used to generate the graph in Figure 7.56 on p263 of the book Lindenmayer et al. 2014 Biodiversity and Environmental Change kuhs_phytophthora_cinnamomi_floristics_1996-2012_p370t633.csv 45493 1 #x0A column , ecogrid://knb/ltern.182.4 cn=allusers,o=unaffiliated,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org read cn=submitters,o=unaffiliated,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org all flora_descriptor Species name Character year Year of survey YYYY transect Transect identifier C Transect C — No treatment, transect located upslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 1 Transect 1 — Sprayed with 0.3% phosphonate in canola oil emollient in October and December 1994, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 2 Transect 2 — Sprayed with 0.3% phosphonate in canola oil emollient in October and December 1994, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1995 3 Transect 3 — No treatment, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 4 Transect 4 — No treatment, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 species_frequency_estimate Frequency estimate for species — calculated by dividing the number of presence records by the total number of quadrats searched (10) number real 1344 kuhs_phytophthora_cinnamomi_mds_1996-2012_p370t897.csv Summary data used to generate the graph in Figure 7.56 on p263 of the book Lindenmayer et al. 2014 Biodiversity and Environmental Change kuhs_phytophthora_cinnamomi_mds_1996-2012_p370t897.csv 370 1 #x0A column , ecogrid://knb/ltern.183.1 cn=allusers,o=unaffiliated,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org read cn=submitters,o=unaffiliated,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org all year Year of survey YYYY transect Transect identifier C Transect C — No treatment, transect located upslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 1 Transect 1 — Sprayed with 0.3% phosphonate in canola oil emollient in October and December 1995 , transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 2 Transect 2 — Sprayed with 0.3% phosphonate in canola oil emollient in October and December 1995 , transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1995 3 Transect 3 — No treatment, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1993 4 Transect 4 — No treatment, transect located downslope of initial Phytophthora cinnamomi infection initially recorded at site in spring 1994 mds1 Multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) ordination in first dimension from 10 random starts.
