Object description Download GIS-layers

Authors:

Object specialist A.Yu. Doronina,
GIS-specialist I.A. Budrevskaya.

Date of creation:

10.04.2005.

Scale:

1:20 000 000.

Accuracy of map:

Map was created based on materials of maps of natural scale 1:15 000 000-1:100 000 000 and on information taken from open-published literature.

Projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.

Basic contents:

Vector map. Area of species distribution is shown by polygons and sporadic distribution by points. Zones of weediness are shown by polygons.

Accuracy of classifier:

The weed area is subdivided into two zones, one representing species distribution, and the second where weed is considered a serious pest. Points represent locations where sporadic occurrence has been reported. The zone of weediness was allocated within the area according to criteria of occurrence (% of fields where this species is found) and abundance (Tanskii et al., 1998), i.e., where the occurrence of this species exceeded 50% with its field abundance (projective cover) being 4-5 points.

Method of map production:

Published literature was reviewed, including Atlases, monographs and papers. Occurrence data were obtained from herbarium specimens, floras, monographs and papers. The maps of Chikov (1983) & Hulten & Fries (1986) were used as prototypes for this map and were supplemented with the following maps on the species distribution: Poyarkova (1953), Tolmachev (1974), Kharkevich (1987), Volkov (1935). The northern, southern, western and eastern boundaries of the area were outlined according to Chikov (1983), Hulten & Fries (1986) and adjusted according to the following sources: Komarov (1936) (northern, southern, western and eastern boundaries), Poyarkova (1953), Tolmachev (1974) (northern boundary), Kharkevich (1987) (southern and eastern boundaries), Bordzilovs.kii (1938) (southern and western boundaries), Grossgeim (1939), Shreder (1941), Shishkin (1952), Takhtadzhyan (1954), Pavlov (1956), Nikitin & Gel.dikhanov (1988), Ovchinnikov (1957) (southern boundary), Shishkin (1949), Geideman (1975) (western boundary). The sporadic distribution was determined according to the following sources: Chikov (1983), Hulten & Fries (1986), Poyarkova (1953), Tolmachev (1974), Kharkevich (1987). The zone of weediness was determined according to the following sources: Nikitin (1983), Ul.anova (1983, 1989, 1993, 1998), Maltsev (1937), Melnichuk & Kovalivski (1972), Chesalin (1975), Vasilchenko & Pidotti (1975), Kosolap & Kosolap (2000), Kravchenko (2000), Kudryavtsev et al. (2000), Spiridonov et al. (2000), Bazdyrev et al. (2004), Yakovets (2000), and Keller (1934) were adjusted according to data on abundance, frequency of occurrence or weediness of the weed, taken from the below-mentioned references (except manuals and floras). Data were then compiled through scanning and geo-referencing to develop a composite vector map. The biologist, together with the GIS specialist, drew a composite weed distribution area based on compiled data.
