Description
This dataset includes biodiversity occurences from several surveys done in Aguada Pichana Este, an area which is an operational site of Total Austral, a Total Energies affiliate in Argentina. These surveys were made as part of a Biodiversity Action Plan to mitigate the impacts of the operation in these sites.
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 70 records.
1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Project Data
The dataset include information from some campaigns which were made with the objective of collecting biodiversity data for designing a biodiversity action plan for the area.
| Title | Biodiversity Observations in Aguada Pichana Este 2019-2020, Neuquén, Argentina |
|---|---|
| Funding | The company hires an external consultant to develop the studies |
| Study Area Description | The area is part of an operational site from the company. |
| Design Description | The main objective for the studies conducted is to obtain reliable data regarding the current state of the biodiversity in the area, as a diagnosis. These enables the consultant to design the biodiversity action plan which includes conservation actions in the area. |
Sampling Methods
As this datasets include occurences from several campaigns, different methodologies were used for the data collection. In the case of birds, herpetofauna and mammals observations, they were made through the observation along some linear transects already defined. The transects were 500 m long and 50 meters wide, having a total extension of 25000 square meters. In some occasions, the observations were made in particular spots which were not necessarily part of the transects. In this case, the datasets specifies "ad hoc observation" which was also made for an hour. In the case of flora, the sampling was made by Point Quadrat and the extension was 50 meters.
| Study Extent | The campaigns were made all along the Aguada Pichana Este site in Neuquén. |
|---|---|
| Quality Control | To ensure the quality of the data, there were always 2 observers for the data collection. For the identification, when in doubt, the observations were checked with the corresponding bibliography. |
Method step description:
- The transects were traversed by foot by 2 observers. The organisms were identified both by direct and indirect observations
