Waterbird Census in Portugal 1982-1999. ICNF - Instituto da Conservação da Natureza e das Florestas. Sampling event dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/t26bzr accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-09-26.

Description

This dataset is the output of a national waterbird monitoring programme coordinated by ICNF that collects information on the number and distribution of waterbirds at wetland sites in Portugal and is part of the International Waterbird Census project (African-Eurasian Waterbird Census – Europe). The dataset consists of annual waterbird counts, undertaken from 1982 to 1999, of species encountered at wetlands and observed in all types of natural and man-made wetlands in mainland Portugal. In this dataset there is a record of 105 bird species, from 22 families and 13 orders (Accipitriformes, Anseriformes, Charadriiformes, Ciconiiformes, Falconiformes, Galliformes, Gruiformes, Otidiformes, Pelecaniformes, Phoenicopteriformes, Podicipediformes, Strigiformes, Suliformes).

Sampling Description

Study Extent

The geographic area considered Portugal Mainland. The species included are birds observed in wetland sites (Accipitriformes, Anseriformes, Charadriiformes, Ciconiiformes, Falconiformes, Galliformes, Gruiformes, Otidiformes, Pelecaniformes, Phoenicopteriformes, Podicipediformes, Strigiformes, Suliformes).

Sampling

Waterbird annual counts in natural and man-made wetlands in mainland Portugal.

Quality Control

In the preparation of the dataset for GBIF publication, data consistency was verified using OpenRefine.

Method steps

Preparation of the dataset for GBIF publication used as source the geographic layer in shape file format. The spatial layer and centroids were converted to geographic coordinates using WGS84 and WKT was determined for the polygons. The file was exported to a csv file and attributes reinterpreted to matching DwC standard terms.

Taxonomic Coverages

Waterbirds in natural and man-made wetlands in mainland Portugal: 105 species, 22 families and 13 orders (Accipitriformes, Anseriformes, Charadriiformes, Ciconiiformes, Falconiformes, Galliformes, Gruiformes, Otidiformes, Pelecaniformes, Phoenicopteriformes, Podicipediformes, Strigiformes, Suliformes).
