Description
The dataset include occurrences from the dry bottom of 2 ravines (Mylovska and Kamianska) at the territory of Kamianska Sich National Nature Park in the former Kakhovka reservoir after the Russian terrorist attack on the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant (HPP) (Kherson Region). This dataset contains 127 occurrences of 4 relevés (Biodiversity EDGG) and nearest territories of dry bottoms of 75 taxa names of vascular plants recorded in during June and October 2023. We sampled cryptogams, but they were not recorded during sampling. The main information about the relevés submitted to GrassPlot (Dengler et al. 2018). The nomenclature of the dataset follows “POWO (POWO, 2024).
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 127 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
The study of was conducted using route-field methods. Additionally, the complete relevés with 4 nested-plot biodiversity series collected during summer and autumn following the EDGG methodology (Dengler et al. 2021) are available in the GrassPlot database (Dengler et al. 2018).
| Study Extent | The dataset contains co-occurrences of vascular plants recorded during 2023 at the territory of Kamianska Sich National Nature Park after the Russian terrorist attack on the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant (HPP). The study area is situated in the Kherson Region. |
|---|---|
| Quality Control | Some specimens of the vascular plants and almost were collected as herbarium for determination and verification after the fieldwork. After digitizing the data, we harmonised the taxonomic information according to the nomenclature sources: for vascular plants - POWO (2024). Then we used GBIF Backbone Taxonomy (GBIF species matching tool: https://www.gbif.org/tools/species-lookup) for the taxonomic check and implemented minor corrections of species names regarding misprints and problematic taxa to avoid misinterpretation. We additionally checked and verified the header data using OpenRefine (https://openrefine.org/), ]and QGIS 3.22 (https://qgis.org) for quality control. |
Method step description:
- Site selection, field research.
- Identification of herbarium specimens of vascular plants.
- Digitizing the field data forms.
- Data checking and cleaning.
- Transformation of the dataset according to the Darwin Core standards.
- Taxonomic check, final quality control.
