PINK - Amphibia monitoring for the permanent surveillance of coastal areas in Flanders, Belgium

'PINK - Amphibia monitoring for the permanent surveillance of coastal areas in Flanders, Belgium.' is a sample based species occurrence dataset published by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO). The dataset contains over 1900 occurrences sampled between 2007-04-03 and 2016-07-05 from 243 ponds near the Belgian coast. The dataset includes over 10 species, collected in the PINK Amphibia subset. The monitoring of these coastal areas is needed to secure the nature conservation at the Belgian coast. Issues with the dataset can be reported at https://github.com/LifeWatchINBO/dataset-pink-amphibia-events. The data are collected for the project PINK (Permanente Inventarisatie van de Natuurreservaten aan de Kust), which was commissioned by the Agency for Nature and Forest in 2007. The project started with the aim of mapping the natural values on the coast in a more systematic way. A first 3-year phase (PINK I) ran from 2008 to 2010, in which the methodology was set up and an initial assessment was conducted. A second phase (PINK II) ran from 2012 to 2014, which was a continuation of the main components of PINK I, with special attention for invasive species and grasshoppers. A third phase (PINK III) is running from 2014 to 2018. This dataset contains mainly Amphibia occurrences observed during PINK I and PINK II.
