Data was extracted in the following categories: author, publication year, title, data location, first author affiliation, action taken, intervention type, coarse ecosystem type, fine ecosystem type, fine target species group, main species, disturbance type, coarse disturbance type, reason for restoration, reference ecosystem type, research province, research city, research coordinates, time since restoration, monitoring period, outcome sentence, response variables.
