species (taxonomic group) per site database including environmental information
data type:
point data/observation data
short description of the dataset/summary:
The database of the PONDSCAPE project (Towards a sustainable management of pond diversity at the landscape level) comprises taxon occurrence data of eight different organism groups (bacteria, phytoplankton, diatoms, cladoceran, macro-invertebrates, macrophytes, amphibians and fish) and data on physical, chemical and morphometric variables of 125 farmland ponds covering five biogeographic regions in Belgium and Luxembourg.
The dataset is publicly available (data portal, data archive) and can be used without restrictions, but dataset creator/data contributors must be informed prior to publication. Data must be acknowledged and cited correctly.
