Title:Sweep Sampling of Grasshoppers on Konza Prairie LTER watersheds (1982-present)
Alternate Identifier:CGR02
Abstract:

Sweep samples were taken for grasshoppers (Acrididae) at two sites for each of 14 Konza Prairie LTER watersheds. Samples are taken in late July to early August. At each site on each occasion, 10 sets of 20 sweeps (200 sweeps total) are taken. Stored data include for each site on each occasion: total number of each species (all instars combined) collected and total number for each instar for each species (200 sweeps combined).

Data Entities
Data Table Name:
Data on the environmental variables.
Description:
Data was recorded on the environmental variables for grasshopper sampling at each site including soil type, windy speed, ground temperature, relative humidity, and cloudy cover.
Data Table Name:
Data on the individual sweeps of each grasshopper species.
Description:
Data on the individual number of each grasshopper species in each set. 10 sets were designed at each site and 20 sweeps were taken in each set.
Data Table Name:
Data on the individual instar of each grasshopper species.
Description:
Data was recorded on the individual number of instar and adult stage. Instars were classified into first, second, third, fourth, and fifth stage. Adult was identified with sex (male and female).
