(2024) Changes in Danish bird communities over four decades of climate and land-use change. Oikos. https://doi.org/10.1111/oik.10697 Data on local bird species richness, functional diversity, temporal and spatial turnover (beta diversity), abundance, and biomass at volunteer led survey routes across Denmark. Matched habitat data (from volunteers) and historical climate data (E-OBS). Bird observations are a subset of the Common Bird Monitoring programme (DOF – BirdLife Denmark) that include routes surveyed in the summer season, spanning ≥10 years, and with full GPS coordinates. This excel document contains all of the derived (and anomysied) data used in the final analyses and includes metadata describing the variables. Climate and trait data were obtained from open-access databases (see references). Metadata is included in the excel file. Danish Common Bird Monitoring programme – Eskildsen, D.
