Dados Sobre o Projeto
Namibia is a biodiverse country with a large protected area network. However, a lack of baseline data has resulted in many of Namibia's important biodiversity areas being overlooked and excluded from protection. South eastern Namibia contains part of the Gariep Centre of Endemism, but largely falls outside any protected areas. The Warmbad District was selected as a potential Important Plant Area (IPA) in Namibia. The area is poorly surveyed and the aim is review existing data, collect new data in order to update species distributions and quantify endemism and biodiversity potential of this area to ultimately designate an appropriate conservation status or standard.
| Título | Gariep Endemism Species information for Conservation Action (GESICA) |
|---|---|
| Financiamento | This is a collaborative project between the Namibia Nature Foundation, the National Botanical Research Institute and the National Museum of Namibia which is funded by the JRS Biodiversity Foundation. |
| Descrição da Área de Estudo | South eastern Namibia forms part of the Gariep Centre of Endemism and borders the Succulent Karoo Biome on the west and is part of the greater Nama Karoo Biome as well as four major geological formations. |
| Descrição do Design | 1. Establish a baseline and fill biodiversity gaps for plants, arthropods and small vertebrates for south eastern Namibia 2. Undertake taxonomic and conservation research of plants, arthropods and small vertebrates for south eastern Namibia 3. Data sharing on open access platforms and conservation platforms 4. Designations of an area within south easter Namibia to an appropriate conservation status or standard. |

Métodos de Amostragem
Standard herbarium specimen collection, digitization and data management procedures.
| Área de Estudo | This is not a particular study, but rather an ongoing targeted sampling and deposition into the National Herbarium of Namibia by its staff, research associates and multiple local and international researchers. The JRS funded research project has significantly contributed towards updating biodiversity data within this area. |
|---|---|
| Controle de Qualidade | Local and international botanists identify the material to species level upon collection, additional redeterminations are done by various experts as the material is used for various taxonomic studies. Paulina Fendinat standardized the data according tor DarwinCore and formatted the file accordingly. Quanita Daniels did final checks regarding DarwinCore field mapping, metadata and data publication. |
Descrição dos passos do método:
- 1. Extract existing data from BRAHMS 2. Verify data on database with that of specimen labels (Paulina Fendinat, Lovisa Kandenge) 3. Review data for quality and errors (Paulina Fendinat, Lovisa Kandenge) 4. Format data according to DarwinCore (Paulina Fendinat) 5. Checking and publication (Quanita Daniels)
