So far, data have been assembled \\ 300 distinct sources, describing 500 plant traits for 25k taxa. The dataset and approach is documented in detail in the following publication Falster D, Gallagher R, Wenk, E et al. (2021) AusTraits, a curated plant trait database for the Australian flora. Scientific Data 8: 254. DOI: 10.1038/s41597-021-01006-6 The repo contains the data for rebuilding AusTraits, while the workflow to rebuild the dataset is on the traits.build repo. AusTraits is continually evolving, as new datasets are contributed. As such, there is no single canonical version. We are continually making new versions available. Overtime, we expect that different versions will be released and used in different analyses. Accessing data Those interested in simply using data from AusTraits, should visit download the compiled resource from the versioned releases archived on Zenodo at DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.3568417. Users will want to read up on the database structure, described in the traits.build manual.
