Description

The dataset contains the results of year-round records or individual observations of 127 species of waterfowl in the territory of western Ukraine, namely Zakarpattia, Lviv, Volyn, Ivano-Frankivsk, Ternopil, Khmelnytskyi, Rivne, Chernivtsi administrative regions. 35% (3701 records) of all observations are located in Volyn and Rivne regions, the territories of which are situated within the boundaries of the Polissia lowland and the Volyn highlands and which are characterized by a dense network of natural lakes, swamps and waterlogged floodplains of rivers. The rest of the observations were carried out in very diverse physical and geographical zones: Male Polissia, Podillia Highlands, Carpathian Mountains, the mountain system of the Ukrainian Carpathians, the Transcarpathian Lowlands and others. All of them are characterized by a dense river network and a large number of artificial water bodies, such as fish breeding ponds and reservoirs.

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 10,470 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.

Kingdom	Animalia
Phylum	Chordata
Class	Aves
Order	Pelecaniformes, Anseriformes, Ciconiiformes, Gaviiformes, Suliformes, Accipitriformes, Podicipediformes, Procellariiformes, Gruiformes, Charadriiformes, Phoenicopteriformes

Project Data

With the help of the project two more publishers from Ukraine were registered. This means that despite rocket attacks, close to the front line, lack of light... Lviv, Kharkiv, Odesa and Melitopol continue to work on publication of scientific archives of the West-Ukrainian Ornithological Society and Azov-Black Sea Ornithological Working Group. Both organizations registered with GBIF and our operators have already handed over the first sets data for publication. And this means that more than 10,000 verified records of bird registrations will appear with open access.

Title	«Відкрита наука: співпраця орнітологів Львова і Мелітополя для збереження наукової спадщини»
Funding	The project is supported by ЗMIN Foundation.
Study Area Description	The project covers the entire territory of Ukraine.

Sampling Methods

The vast majority of the material was collected during bird surveys along the shoreline of various reservoirs of both natural and anthropogenic origin. The methods of accounting were chosen depending on the season and weather conditions, the predominant methods were route accounting without fixing the width of the lane and point accounting, in some cases, for rare species, random encounters could be recorded. The coordinates of each meeting were recorded, but not in all cases. In those cases missing the coordinates, the location was estimated based on the description, provided for each single record. In some cases the recorded bird was assigned to a certain reservoir or to the accounting section of the reservoir and the coordinates of the center of the reservoir or accounting section were determined. The information provided in the database is not exhaustive. Observations were carried out with the help of optical devices of different multiplicity.

Study Extent	The dataset represents the results of waterfowl registrations within the territory of western Ukraine for the period starting from 1964 to 2015. The main aim of this dataset is to save the valuable scientific information about birds and make it available for the world's scientific community. This will prevent this data from possible complete destruction and loss in term of war, started by Russian Federation against Ukraine.
Quality Control	The authors of the dataset are fully responsible for the quality of the published data.
