Description

The dataset contains data from the results of simultaneous census of birds in the wetlands of the Azov-Black Sea region in August 2009. The census were carried out within the framework of the Regional Ornithological Monitoring Program (ROM), information about which is presented on the website https://www.izan.kiev.ua/rom/. August censuses within the framework of this Program are held once every three years and are coordinated by the Azov-Black Sea Ornithological Station. A total of 38 wetlands were surveyed in 2009, of which 19 are sites of international importance (Ramsar sites). Censuses at all wetlands were carried out according to the standard methodology. The dataset contains 1280 records for 98 species of waterbirds.

Data Records

The data in this sampling event 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 38 records.

1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.

1280

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.

Sampling Methods

The basic method was the absolute recording of birds in well-observed areas (sectors) of wetlands and adjacent land. The water areas of small reservoirs were completely surveyed from the shore, large ones - from water transport. All birds associated with these wetlands, including those flying over it, were taken into account. Counting was carried out from an optimal distance that did not allow birds to be alarmed and, at the same time, allowed the observer to accurately determine their species and number. Linear accounting transects were carried out only in solid reed thickets, swampy floodplain forests, floodplain meadows overgrown with shrubs and other areas where a survey of the entire water area or territory was impossible. Observations were carried out with the help of 10-12x binoculars and 30-60x telescopes, photography was carried out whenever possible. In case of an incomplete survey of the entire wetland, the authors of the observations displayed the surveyed territory on the map. Detailed information about methods is on https://www.izan.kiev.ua/rom/methods.htm The coordinates of the plot center were determined in the free software QGIS, version 3.4. The nomenclature follows the Catalog of Life.

Study Extent	The data is given in total for the entire wetland. The coordinates of the centroid of the wetland or the area of the wetland are indicated as standard coordinates in the dataset table. In the coordinateUncertaintyInMeters field, the largest distance from the center of the plot to its borders is indicated.
Quality Control	The authors of the dataset are fully responsible for the quality of the published data.

Method step description:

Conducting of a field survey within the previousely chosen plot/wetland/land area according to the standard method.
Counting of the birds with simultaneous identification of species.
Creating maps of the records made.
Georeferencing and creating of the lists of registered species and specimens.
Organizing of the dataset according to the DarwinCore standards.
