A Sampling-event Dataset from the Survey of Wintering Waterbirds in Coastal Fujian Province, China
type: Dataset
description: We present a sampling-event dataset from a synchronised survey of wintering waterbirds conducted across coastal wetlands in Fujian Province, China, in February 2006. The survey aimed to systematically assess regional distribution patterns and abundance of waterbirds. The geographical extent ranged from 23°43′N to 27°17′N and from 117°19′E to 120°18′E, covering 2,657.56 km². Systematic observations were carried out at 191 fixed survey points across 21 wetlands, including 25 wetland nature reserves. The dataset contains 108,125 recorded individuals of 64 waterbird species in 39 genera. The 10 most abundant species account for 84% of all individuals, comprising 4 shorebirds, 3 ducks, 1 gull, 1 egret and 1 cormorant. Records are organised according to Darwin Core standards as sampling events with linked occurrence records, ensuring comparability and reusability. This dataset provides a spatially explicit baseline for analyses of wintering waterbird distributions, long-term monitoring of population dynamics, and conservation planning for coastal wetlands in Fujian.

Update Checklist of Higher Plants in Myanmar (2023)
type: Dataset
description: Myanmar is one of the most biodiverse countries in the Asia-Pacific region due to a wide range of climatic and environmental heterogeneity. Floristic diversity in Myanmar is largely unknown, resulting in a lack of comprehensive conservation plans. We developed a database of higher plants in Myanmar derived from herbarium specimens and literature sources, and analyzed patterns of diversity inventories and collection inconsistencies, aiming to provide a baseline floristic data of Myanmar and act as a guide for future research efforts.

Occurrence dataset of birds from multi-region avifaunal surveys in Gansu Province, China (2011-2020)
type: Dataset
description: This dataset integrates multi-year line-transect bird surveys conducted between 2011 and 2020 across 12 study regions in Gansu Province, northwestern China. It contains 118 permanent transects, 1,043 sampling events, and 27,077 georeferenced occurrence records documenting 157,345 individual birds. Following taxonomic verification, name standardization, and consolidation of duplicated nomenclatural variants, the dataset comprises 364 species, 200 genera, 65 families, and 21 orders. The most abundant species were the Eurasian Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus; 12.57% of all individuals) and the Bar-headed Goose (Anser indicus; 10.43%). The dataset is structured as a Darwin Core Event Core and Occurrence Extension. A sampling event represents one complete survey of one permanent transect on a specific date and survey order. Occurrence records are linked to sampling events through eventID; multiple occurrence records may correspond to the same species within one sampling event when separate detections were recorded. Surveys were concentrated between April and July. The dataset therefore provides a standardized baseline for analyses of spring and early-summer avian occurrence, abundance, community composition, habitat associations, regional species turnover, and effort-adjusted temporal patterns. It should not be interpreted as an exhaustive inventory of the complete year-round avifauna of Gansu Province.

description: Occurrence data of wild vascular plants in the Jimunai Alpine Periglacial National Wetland Park is mainly based on field surveys conducted annually from May to July between 2020 and 2023, during which 1,583 plant specimens were collected. These specimens are preserved at the Herbarium of the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Additional occurrence data and distribution records were obtained from the Chinese Virtual Herbarium (CVH, https://www.cvh.ac.cn/), National Specimen Resource Sharing Platform (NSII, http://www.nsii.org.cn/), Herbarium of the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography (XJBI), Chinese Plant Image Database (PPBC, https://ppbc.iplant.cn/), Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF, https://www.gbif-uat.org/), and newly published taxonomic articles.

A Sampling-event Dataset from Aerial Surveys of Northern Eurasian Waterbirds, 2014–2024
type: Dataset
description: We present a comprehensive, decade-long (2014–2024) aerial survey dataset of northern Eurasian waterbirds, covering a broad northern Eurasian study area, with survey effort concentrated in the Russian Arctic and Subarctic. Surveys in a purpose-built light hydroplane covered 1,140,337 km of flight tracks across 67 administrative districts and a net, non-overlapping area of 1,918,845 km² (45.20–76.52°N, 35.49°E–180.00°E / 180.00°W–172.05°W). The dataset contains 97,638 georeferenced occurrence records, comprising 2 distinct survey components: marine (14%) and inland basin (86%) surveys. The 10 most abundant species (4 geese and 6 ducks) account for 76% of all individuals. Following spatial deduplication with survey-type grouping, the dataset encompasses 2,438,521 deduplicated individuals from 42 species in 19 genera, distributed as: marine surveys: 397,373 individuals (16%) from 34 species; basin surveys: 2,041,148 individuals (84%) from 42 species. These records provide a spatially explicit baseline for analyses of broad distribution patterns and conservation planning in surveyed regions of northern Eurasia.

A checklist of wild vascular plants in Xinjiang, China
type: Dataset
description: In order to fully understand the current situation of wild vascular plant resources in Xinjiang and provide basic information for subsequent work, it is necessary to revise and update the wild vascular plant list in Xinjiang. Based on previous studies, we updated the list of wild vascular plants in Xinjiang through literature collection, specimen study, field investigation and the latest taxonomic research results. In total, the present checklist recorded 4,109 species belonging to 800 genera in 113 families (including infraspecific taxa, the same below), with 52 species of lycopods and ferns in 23 genera and 14 families, 22 species of gymnosperms in 6 genera and 3 families, and 4,035 species of angiosperms in 771 genera and 96 families. The top 4 families of lycopods and ferns with the largest number of species were Aspleniaceae (9 species), Equisetaceae (8 species), Dryopteridaceae (7 species) and Cystopteridaceae (7 species), and the largest genus was Asplenium (9 species). Ephedraceae (11 species) and Ephedra (11 species) were the most abundant families and genera of gymnosperms. Angiosperms are the most important components of wild vascular plants in Xinjiang, accounting for 85.0%, 96.4% and 98.2% of the total number of families, genera and species, respectively. The top 5 families with the largest number of species are Asteraceae (600 species), Fabaceae (465 species), Poaceae (423 species), Brassicaceae (215 species) and Ranunculaceae (181 species). The top 5 genera were Astragalus (212 species), Oxytropis (101 species), Carex (86 species), Artemisia (65 species) and Allium (64 species). In addition, the list covers 53 species and subspecific taxa in 41 genera and 20 families of suspected species in Xinjiang, 59 species of protected plants in 26 genera and 20 families in China; 125 species of protected plants in 73 genera and 46 families in Xinjiang; there are 95 species of threatened plants in 61 genera and 38 families.

Catalogue of Life China 2023 Annual Checklist
type: Dataset
description: Organized by the Biodiversity Committee of Chinese Academy of Sciences (BC-CAS), Catalogue of Life China 2023 Annual Checklist edition has been compiled by Species 2000 China Node. It is sponsored by the Strategic Priority Research Program of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) （XDA19050202）, Biological Resources Programme of CAS and National Basic Science Data Center. This project is implemented by the Institute of Zoology, CAS, cooperating with the Institute of Botany, Institute of Microbiology, Institute of Oceanology, Chengdu Institute of Biology et al. Species 2000 China Node is a regional hub of the Species 2000 program launched in October 2006. The goal of Species 2000 China Node project is to provide a validated checklist of all species distributed in China. Since 2008, the project has compiled and published an electronic version of the annual checklist of the Catalogue of Life China. There are 148674 species & infraspecific taxa in 2023 Annual Checklist of Catalogue of Life China, including 135061 species and 13613 infraspecific taxa.
