Population trend of bird species: datasets from Article 12, Birds Directive 2009/147/EC reporting (2013-2018) - tabular - Apr. 2021

  • English

All EU Member States are requested to monitor birds listed in the Birds Directive (2009/147/EC) and send a report about the progress made with the implementation of the Directive every 6 years following an agreed format.

The assessment of breeding population short-term trend at the level of country is here presented. The spatial dataset contains gridded birds distribution data (10 km grid cells) as reported by EU Member States for the 2013-2018 period. The dataset is aggregated by species code and country in the attribute CO_MS. By use of the aggregated attribute [CO_MS], the tabular data can be joined to the spatial data to obtain e.g. the EU population status and trend.

This metadata refers to the public dataset, without sensitive species.

The dataset contains the tabular data as reported by Member States for the 2013-2018 period; this includes population sizes and trends (short and long term) for breeding and wintering populations, as well as pressures and threats. In addition, it includes the population status and trends at the EU level as assessed by the BirdLife International (under contract with the European Commission). The tabular dataset was updated in Aril 2021 to include the delayed report from Romania. The assessments at EU level do not take into consideration this delayed delivery.

Statement

Member State data was supplied in a 10km grid. The dataset covers the EU 28 (Terrestrial and Marine) and corresponds to the period 2013 to 2018. From the single MS reports one European distribution dataset with 10x10km grid cells was produced. Additionally, the country name was added to each cell. The entire dataset was then aggregated based on Code and Country. The dataset contains the spatial data delivered by the Member States for the 2013-2018 reporting period and an update including the delayed report from Romania was made available on 01.02.2022

All data was supplied under the Article 12 (Birds Directive 2009/147/EC) reporting process.
