The dataset contains records of land birds (Aves) collected in the lower valley of River Sabor (NE Portugal), in the scope of the long-term Ecological Monitoring Program (PME) of the Baixo Sabor Hydroelectric Dams (AHBS), promoted by EDP – Energias de Portugal, S.A. This dataset includes results of surveys made in and around the area affected by the dams, from February 2010 to September 2014. Sampling was performed close to extant stream weirs, as well as close to locations where weirs were planned to be built in the future under the mitigation program of AHBS. The presence and identity of bird species were assessed by visual and/or acoustic observation, with the support of binoculars. The records include taxa identified at the species or genus levels.

To be completed
Data were collected in a 5-km buffer around the lower Sabor main tributaries, from the river mouth up to 42 km upstream, in the municipalities of Torre de Moncorvo, Alfândega da Fé, and Mogadouro.
Sampling was designed to cover the most relevant habitats for land birds in a buffer of 5 km around the lower reach of the Sabor river basin tributaries. A total of 16 point counts were set in selected extant or potential stream weirs in lower Sabor’s main tributaries. At each point, a 10-minute sampling session was performed, in which all birds detected by sight or sound were recorded. The identification was made "in situ" by experienced observers, with the support of appropriate field guides.
All individual identifications were performed by qualified technicians

The dataset contains records of land birds (Aves) collected in the lower valley of River Sabor (NE Portugal) and its main tributaries, in the scope of the long-term Ecological Monitoring Program (PME) of the Baixo Sabor Hydroelectric Dams (AHBS), promoted by EDP – Energias de Portugal, S.A. This dataset includes results of surveys made in stream weirs in the main tributaries of Sabor river from February 2010 to September 2014. Sampling was performed at a total of 16 points in or close to extant stream weirs, as well as close to locations where weirs were planned. The occurrence of the target taxa was documented through 285 observation events (counts at sampling points), which produced 8296 individuals of all species. The most abundant species (>800 individuals) were Fringilla coelebs (1156), Turdus merula (904) and Parus major (813).
The work was funded by EDP - Energias de Portugal, S.A.
The study was conducted in part of the sub-basin of river Sabor affected by the Baixo Sabor Hydroelectric Dam. The sampling was centered in suitable habitats for land birds around 16 weirs in the main tributaries of the Sabor river mouth, up to 42 km upstream.
The objective of the study was to monitor changes in the distribution patterns and abundances of bird species in the area of the Baixo Sabor Hydroelectric Dam, during the construction and flooding periods (2010-2014). This dataset presents the reference situation for selected stream weirs in the Sabor tributaries, which were targeted for restoration or building within the framework of the Program of Compensatory Measures (Measure MC2).
