Field-based ecosystem mapping is prone to observer bias, typically resulting in a mismatch between maps made by different mappers, that is, inconsistency. Experimental studies testing the influence of site, mapping scale, and differences in experience level on inconsistency in field-based ecosystem mapping are lacking. Here, we study how inconsistencies in field-based ecosystem maps depend on these factors.

如何解释实地生态系统绘图中的不一致性？

基于实地的生态系统制图容易出现观察者偏差，通常会导致不同制图者绘制的地图之间不匹配，即不一致。缺乏测试地点、制图比例尺和经验水平差异对实地生态系统制图不一致性影响的实验研究。在这里，我们研究了实地生态系统地图的不一致性如何取决于这些因素。
