Database "Winter Route Counts"

Contains data on 13 game species and 4 tetraonidae species based on Winter Route Counts in the Republic of Karelia since 1961. The materials show the state of population and species population dynamics and are analyzed according to administrative districts, landscape and climatic zones, and by the system of rectangular co-ordinates. Data are available as manuscripts, the data from 1989 on are fed into a computer as the KARINV electronic database. Electronic database can be found in the DBMS database which allows to operate 18 main entries (data before 1996) and 23 main entries (from 1997). The 1971 - 1997 materials are presented in the form of electronic tables. This allows to process the materials in the software Exel 7.0, i.e. to put together all the initial data and make graphs and diagrams.
