Results of bird surveys in the North-Western Black Sea region in 1991-2000

The dataset contains data on the registration of 164 bird species in the Northwestern Black Sea region. Counts were carried out in the Stensovsko-Zhebriyansky floodplains (Danube delta), Kartal and Kuhurlui lakes, the Sasyk reservoir, the Tuzla group of estuaries, on the Tiligul estuary and in the estuary zones of some small rivers in the region. The study area covers (completely or at least partially) 6 Ramsar wetlands: “Kuhurlui lake”, “Kartal lake”, “Sasyk lake”, “Kyliiske mouth”, “Shagany-Alibei-Burnas lakes system” and “Tylihulskyi liman”. All works on birds' counting were organized by the Azov-Black Sea Ornithological Station and were carried out with the participation of its employees, however, in some cases, researchers from other organizations participated as well (the names of all survey participants are indicated in the list of authors of this dataset). In 1999, birds' counts were carried out within the framework of the project “Proposals for the restoration, management and protection of lakes Kartal, Kuhurlui, Izmailske, the islands of Tataru, Minor and Major Dalera, the inclusion of promising wetlands of the Odessa region in the project “Partners in Wetlands”. In 2000, counts in Stensovsko-Zhebriyansky floodplains were conducted within the framework of the project “Current state of biodiversity and economic use of the Stensovsko-Zhebriyansky floodplains” with the financial support of the WWF project in Ukraine “Partners in Wetlands”.

本数据集收录了西北黑海地区164种鸟类的登记信息。统计工作在登索夫斯基-热布里扬斯基泛滥平原（多瑙河三角洲）、卡尔塔湖和库赫尔鲁伊湖、萨西克水库、图兹拉河口群、蒂利古尔河口以及区域内若干小河的河口地带进行。研究区域覆盖（完全或部分地）6个拉姆萨尔湿地：库赫尔鲁伊湖、卡尔塔湖、萨西克湖、基利斯基河口、沙甘尼-阿里贝伊-布燃斯湖系以及蒂利胡尔斯基利曼。鸟类计数工作由亚速海-黑海鸟类研究所组织，并由其员工参与实施，但在某些情况下，也由其他组织的科研人员参与（所有调查参与者的姓名均列于本数据集作者名单中）。1999年，鸟类计数活动在“卡塔尔、库赫尔鲁伊、伊兹梅尔、塔塔尔、小达莱拉岛和大达莱拉岛、将奥德萨地区有潜力的湿地纳入‘湿地伙伴’项目”的框架内进行。2000年，在登索夫斯基-热布里扬斯基泛滥平原的计数活动在‘当前生物多样性和经济利用状况’项目的框架内进行，该项目得到了乌克兰‘湿地伙伴’世界自然基金会项目的资金支持。
