Description
Mica - Muskrat and Coypu and Raccoon Occurrences collected by ITAW, Germany is an occurrence dataset published by the Research Institute of Nature and Forest (INBO) and ITAW (Institute for Terrestrial and Aquatic Wildlife Research. It is part of the LIFE MICA - Management of Invasive Coypu and muskrat in Europe project on Muskrat monitoring networks in Flanders, The Netherlands and Germany. This dataset contains Muskrat, Raccoon and Coypu counts. Here it is published as a standardized Darwin Core Archive and includes for each occurrence record an recordID, date, location, samplingProtocol, the number of recorded individuals, status (present/absent) and scientific name. Issues with the dataset can be reported at https://github.com/inbo/muskrat-uvw-occurrences/issues

Données sur le projet
Coypu (Myocastor coypus) and muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) are large semi aquatic rodents of American origin that are now found in a wide range of habitats in wetlands, lowlands and reed areas in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany. Coypu and muskrat populations can be very damaging to their environment. They feed on roots of bulrush and reeds, can consume up to 1.5 m2 of vegetation per night per animal. Endangered species, such as freshwater pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera), little bittern (Ixobrychus minutus) and Eurasian bittern (Botaurus stellaris), suffer from habitat damage and egg destruction. By destroying reed habitats, these invasive alien species (IAS) also drastically affect ecosystem services, diminishing the filtering effects of this habitat and its buffering capacity, and by digging into dikes and quays they seriously increase the risk of floods and human health risks. Moreover, the species damage commercial crops, leading to significant losses in yield. Finally, muskrat and coypu can be carriers of various diseases dangerous to human and pet health such as zoonosis. Coypu and muskrat management operations are a core activity of the regional Dutch Water Authority Rivierenland (WSRL), where trapping operations help minimise the muskrat population and prevent coypu from spreading in the Netherlands.

Description du domaine d'étude / de recherche | Flanders, Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany |
Description du design | Registration of trapped muskrats and coypus is essential to monitor the population and the effectiveness of eradication campaigns. Both the Netherlands and Flanders have set up a registration system for monitoring trapped muskrats and coypus. Data from these applications, together with data from a new application in Germany will be consolidated in one place. This dataset will be made accessible in a purposely build dashboard. Registration of trapped muskrats and coypus is essential to monitor the population and the effectiveness of eradication campaigns. Data of sightings and tracks of both species can be used to increase local trapping effort. It can be also used for the identification of sites where to implement the innovative methods developed in this project. Apart from the target species, it is also important to include observations of non-target species to minimize bycatches in the future. |

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
Data is collected by volunteers and recorded in a Google.sheet
Etendue de l'étude | Life MICA is an international cooperation with the goal to reduce coypu and muskrat population to a manageable size in order to prevent damage to waterways, biodiversity and plant life. This datasets contains the catches in Germany |
---|---|
Contrôle qualité | Data are collected in the field by specialized trappers |
Description des étapes de la méthode:
- Data are collected in the field by specialized trappers and recorded in a Google sheet
- An R script script is created to map the original data to Darwin Core as occurrence Core
- The Darwin Core text file (occurrence.txt) is uploaded in the INBO IPT and documented with metadata
- The dataset is published and registered with GBIF
