This dataset accompanies the following research article:
Evans T and Cuthbert RN. 2025. Management of alien bird impacts does not reflect their severity. J Environ Manage, 396, 128053. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2025.128053
It provides evidence to demonstrate that the impact reports and management reports selected for the study focussed on the biodiversity impacts of alien birds. It also includes data on the native species selected to produce four predictor variables (V1 - V4) used in the analysis.
