<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p> <p>A series of weekly bird abundance distribution datasets is now available from EBIRD (<a href="https://science.ebird.org/en/status-and-trends" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://science.ebird.org/en/status-and-trends</a>).&nbsp; ERGO has processed these data in several tranches to provide weekly species richness and weekly aggregated abundance indices at 3km resolution.&nbsp; Data for thirty &nbsp;species have now been processed.&nbsp; These species have been selected as being West Nile Virus hosts, using literature search, inference from mosquito WNV vector blood meals&nbsp; and from bird serology reports.&nbsp; The two tranches are a) all 30 selected species&nbsp; and b) the top 15 E4Warning priority species .&nbsp; Details are provided in the accompanying Excel Spreadsheet (e4ebird readmeJune24.xls).</p> <p><strong>Description</strong></p> <p>This dataset has been requested for 'the Horizon e4Warning project on mapping and modelling West Nile Virus Disease and its &nbsp;Hosts' then been downloaded from ebird.org and it includes &nbsp;weekly abundance geospatial tifs for 30 species:</p> <ol> <li>weekly presence</li> <li>weekly species richness</li> <li>week abundance sum</li> </ol> <p>Data obtained from Ebird https://science.ebird.org/en/status-and-trends/species/</p> <p><strong>Species Names:&nbsp;</strong></p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><strong>Species</strong></td> <td><strong>English Name</strong></td> <td><strong>filname code</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Alcedo atthis</td> <td>Common Kingfisher</td> <td>comkin1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Anas platyrhynchos</td> <td>Mallard</td> <td>mallar3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Anser anser</td> <td>Graylag Gose</td> <td>gragoo</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Athene noctua</td> <td>Little Owl</td> <td>litowl1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Bulbulcus ibis</td> <td>Cattle Egret</td> <td>categr</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Buteo buteo</td> <td>Common Buzzard</td> <td>combuz1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Columba palumbus</td> <td>Commin Wood Piegon</td> <td>cowpig</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Corvus cornix</td> <td>Hooded Crow</td> <td>hoocro1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Corvus corone cornix</td> <td>Carrion Crow</td> <td>carcro1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Corvus monedula</td> <td>Eurasian Jackdaw</td> <td>eurjac</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Cyanistes caeruleus</td> <td>Blue Tit</td> <td>blutit</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Egretta garzetta</td> <td>(Little Egret)</td> <td>litegr</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Eremophila alpestris</td> <td>Horned Lark</td> <td>horlar</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Falco tinnunculus</td> <td>Eurasian Kestrel</td> <td>eurkes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Garrulus glandarius</td> <td>Eurasian Jay</td> <td>eurjay1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Hirundo rustica</td> <td>Barn Swallow</td> <td>barswa</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Larus argentatus</td> <td>Herring Gull</td> <td>hergul</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Lulua arborea</td> <td>Woodlark</td> <td>woolar1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Luscinia Luscinia</td> <td>Thrush Nightinglae</td> <td>thrnig1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Luscinia megarhynchos</td> <td>Common nightingale</td> <td>comnig1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Passer domesticus (including Passer italiae and Passer hispaniolensis)</td> <td>House Sparrow</td> <td>houspa</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Pica pica</td> <td>Eurasian&nbsp;
