Description

These data accompany the paper (with the same authors) entitled "Bird communities and rehabilitation of the Al Karaana La-goons in Qatar". Briefly, the data describe the number of individuals of each bird species observed at the Al Karaana Lagoons in Qatar before (2015, 2017) and after (2019-2021) restoration work at the lagoon. 2015 data are presence-absence only. Pre-restoration data were collected by independent contractors working for the Qatari government in preparation for the rehabilitation. Post-rehabilitation data were collected by us (primarily by KCC). This updated version removes one species (water rail), as the confidence in the identification was low.
