Bat and bird survey data from different agricultural land use gradients in Ghana and Zambia, 2020-2023

This dataset consists of bird observation and mist netting records for both bats and birds collected from December 2020 to March 2023. The data collection employed a mixed-methods approach incorporating point counts and mist netting techniques. Surveys were carried out in multiple localities, encompassing three sites in Ghana and 5 in Zambia.

The data were collected as part of the Social and Environmental Trade-Offs in African Agriculture (Sentinel) project, funded by UK Research and Innovation via the Global Challenges Research Fund (Grant Number: ES/P011306/1).
