Description

The dataset shows digitalized data on the registration of fauna species (mostly avifauna) that occurred within Southeastern Europe (Ukraine, the Don basin, the North Caucasus and Ciscaucasia. All dataset materials are the result of processing 10 conference proceedings (collection of scientific works "Birds of the Siversky Donets basin") of the working group on the study and protection of birds of the Siverskyi Donets basin.

Data Records

The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 6,850 records.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Sampling Methods

Methodology: processing of data from conference collections of the working group on the study and protection of birds of the Siverskyi Donets (collection of scientific works "Birds of the Siversky Donets basin").

Study Extent The dataset covers mainly the period from 20th and 21st centuries (1920-2010, mainly the period between 1960 and 2005). Several earlier finds were included as well. The data is a result of digitaliation of materials from the working group on the study and protection of birds of the Siverskyi Donets basin (collection of scientific works "Birds of the Siversky Donets basin"). All accompanying information concerning every records is excluded from the published metadata. The studied biotopes and landscapes include: forest-steppe (forests, meadows, mixed steppes, oak forests), river floodplains (intrazonal landscapes), steppe, semi-desert and desert, southern mountain (steppes, broad-leaved and mixed forests of the Caucasus), southern border of mixed forests of Polissya, sea coasts and water areas. Taxonomic scope: birds (Aves) - priority attention, mammals (Mammalia), amphibians (Amphibia), reptiles (Squamata), fish (Pices), insects (Insecta).
Quality Control Th author is responsible for the accuracy of data transferred from the original publication to this dataset.

Method step description:

  1. Publications were chosen, which indicated: the taxa of the observation, the date of the observation (at least a range of years) and a landmark by which the coordinates of the location of the observation can be found (village, spoil tip, ravine, small reserve).
  2. Coordinates were searched using online maps (Google Earth) (georeferencing), and the estimated error in meters was also searched.
  3. The data was digitalized in the form of a dataset according to Darwin Core standards.
