Description

The Ministry of the Environment, Climate and Sustainable Development (MECDD) decided in 2008 to entrust the coordination of the COBIMO-LUX scheme to the natur&ëmwelt a.s.b.l. This institution brings together a pool of volunteering field ornithologists. The Common Bird Monitoring Scheme in Luxembourg (COBIMO-LUX) has been developed to evaluate the long-term population trends of common bird species by means of standardized field methods for data collection. For details about the Field methodology of the Common Bird Monitoring in Luxembourg (COBIMO-LUX), we refer to: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/236686754_Field_methodology_of_the_Common_Bird_Monitoring_in_Luxembourg_COBIMO-LUX The occurrence recodes in this dataset were previously contained in the GBIF dataset: Collections and observation data National Museum of Natural History Luxembourg https://www.gbif.org/dataset/962f59bc-f762-11e1-a439-00145eb45e9a
