The recordings were made as part of the interdisciplinary project gARTENreich (www.gartenreich-projekt.de), which studied drivers and barriers of biodiversity-friendly garden design. gARTENreich was a joint project between the Institut für ökologische Wirtschaftsforschung (iöw) Berlin GmbH, the Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, NABU e.V., Hochschule für Wirtschaft und Recht Berlin, NaturGarten e.V., the City of Gütersloh, and the municipality of Aumühle. It was funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research in the Research Initiative for the Conservation of Biodiversity (FEdA). The eleven gardens where these recordings were made took part in the project as volunteers. The recordings were made using Olympus recorders and analysed with BirdNET. For a more detailed description of the methods, please see the README. The “gardenbirds_csv” table contains the species detections per garden and month. The “gardenbirds_additional_info.csv” file contains additional data for each garden, including potentially relevant characteristics.
