Descrição
The Nature Mates Nature Club has released a dataset entitled "Avian diversity study (water birds) of Kamarganti Bheries, Haroa, North 24 parganas, West Bengal, India during winter season" Bheries are the type of fisheries generally practiced in low land impounded with earthen embankments all round. The age-old bheri culture has emerged in North 24 Parganas District in its south and eastern skirts centering the lower course of the Bidyadhari River. Salinity in bheri-water is sourced from brackish sea-water entered through rivers and canals.. In the south-eastern parts of present North 24 Parganas district-territory such type of aquaculture is found to be rehearsed particularly in the mudflats, swamps, marshes or paddy-fields centering the spill zones of the Bidyadhari River, where agricultural cultivation is not so viable due to want of suitable irrigable water. As a result, paddy cum fish and/ or shrimp culture was significantly developed in those low-lying areas The district falls within the new alluvium sub-region of the lower Gangetic Plain (Zone-III) and found to be very fertile for crop production. The main rivers are Ichhamati, Hooghly, Raimangal, Kalindi, Dansa, Benti, Haribhanga, Bidyadhari etc and the physiographic structure is mostly plain and the soils of the southern side are characterized with clay loam. The climate is featured with warm and humid tropical ones, south west monsoon usually from June to September, average annual rainfall 1750mm and mean temperature variation from 120C to 320C. The district has 22 community development (CD) blocks, though brackish water bheri fishery is usually found to exist in its 13 blocks in the south and eastern skirts. This dataset is concerned with one such area, Kamarganti,Haroa,North 24 Parganas. A list of all the birds identified during a biodiversity survey carried out in the year 2023 is included in the dataset. During the survey Red Necked Phalarope (Phalaropus lobatus) was recorded which is a very rare bird in West Bengal. Species or genus-level identifications have been made for every species. There are 42 bird species total, with records of them in 16 different families and 10 different orders. These bheries serve as resting grounds for water birds throughout their winter migratory path. This study can give a future scope in understanding how bheries affect the biodiversity of an area.
