This is a major release of AusTraits as it involves removal of some old error prone data. Additoinally, we've added new traits and metadata.
Adding more specific references:
Add species-level authorship to all flora data, as designated in the floras.
For Wenk_2022 and Wenk_2023, the two “Complete Traits” datasets, add in the references for the manually looked-up taxa.
New data:
Stephen_2024: additional trait data from EUCLID
NHNSW_2024: 597 data had previously been missing from the PlantNet datasets
Fixing errors, removing outdated data
Mainly removing duplicate and outdated trait data from floras that were scraped once when AusTraits was first being developed and were scraped again in 2022/2023. This removes trait values that were duplicated between the two scrapings, with the newer values being preferentially retained. All non-duplicate values were manually checked and removed if the original values was determined to be an error.
