Description
Data on the abundance and distribution of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) within six Natura 2000 sites for bottlenose dolphins were collected. This dataset includes observations over a period 2021-2022.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 267 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
