Trends about Armenia
Number of occurrence records
Records by kingdom
The number of available records categorized by kingdom. "Unknown" includes records with taxonomic information that cannot be linked to available taxonomic checklists.
Records for Animalia
The number of animal records categorized by the basis of record. "Unknown" includes records without defined basis of record or with an unrecognized value for basis of record.
Records for Plantae
The number of plant records categorized by the basis of record. "Unknown" includes records without defined basis of record or with an unrecognized value for basis of record.
Species counts
Definition
Species counts are based on the number of binomial scientific names for which GBIF has received data records, organized as far as possible using synonyms recorded in key databases such as the Catalogue of Life. Since many names are not yet included in these databases, some proportion of these names will be unrecognized synonyms and do not represent valid species. Therefore these counts can be used as an indication of richness only, and do not represent true species counts. All data have been processed using the same, most recent version of the common GBIF backbone taxonomy, and comparisons over time are therefore realistic.
Species count by kingdom
The number of species with available occurrence records, categorized by kingdom.
Species count for specimen records
The number of species associated with specimen records.
Species count for observation records
The number of species associated with observation records.
Time and seasonality
Definition
Species counts are based on the number of binomial scientific names for which GBIF has received data records, organized as far as possible using synonyms recorded in key databases such as the Catalogue of Life. Since many names are not yet included in these databases, some proportion of these names will be unrecognized synonyms and do not represent valid species. Therefore these counts can be used as an indication of richness only, and do not represent true species counts. All data have been processed using the same, most recent, version of the common GBIF backbone taxonomy, and comparisons over time are therefore realistic.
Records by year of occurrence
The number of occurrence records available for each year since 1950.
Species by year of occurrence
The number of species (see above) for which records are available for each year since 1950.
Records by day of year
The number of occurrence records available for each day of the year.
Species by day of year
The number of species (see above) for which records are available for each day of the year.
Note
These charts may reveal patterns that represent biases in data collection (seasonality, public holidays) or potential issues in data management (disproportionate numbers of records shown for the first or last days in the year or each month or week). Such issues may arise at various stages in data processing and require further investigation.
By generating these charts an issue was detected in the GBIF processing which contributes to the spike seen on the first day of the year in several charts and will be addressed.
Completeness and precision
Definition
A record is here defined to be complete if it includes an identification at least to species rank, valid coordinates, a full date of occurrence and a given basis of record (e.g. Observation, specimen etc).
Completeness
These charts illustrate changes in the number of records considered complete according to the definition above. Separate charts separately show the same information for specimen records and for observation records. Subsequent charts illustrate the component elements that affect the number of complete records.
All records
Specimen records
Observation records
Taxonomic precision
These charts illustrate changes in the number of available records which include an identification at least to the species rank. The numbers of records identified to an infraspecific rank or to a genus are also shown.
All records
Specimen records
Observation records
Geographic precision
These charts illustrate changes in the number of available records which include coordinates for which no known issues have been detected. For records without accepted valid coordinates, these charts also show the number of records for which the country of occurrence is known.
All records
Specimen records
Observation records
Temporal precision
These charts illustrate changes in the number of available records which include a complete date including year, month and day. The numbers of records including only the month and year or only the year are also shown.
