Data on the abundance and demographic structure of the Iberian ibex population were compiled over the last three decades. Transects were laid out to record different variables such as the number of individuals sighted, the perpendicular distance of each group of Iberian ibex to the transect line and sex as well as age of individuals in the case of males. These data enabled the calculation of population parameters such as density, sex ratio, birth rate, and age structure. These parameters are key for Iberian ibex conservation and management, given that Sierra Nevada harbours the largest population of this species in the Iberian Peninsula. The data set we present is structured using the Darwin Core biological standard, which contains 3,091 events (582 transect walk events and 2,509 group sighting events), 5,396 occurrences, and 2,502 measurements. The occurrences include the sightings of 11,436 individuals (grouped by sex and age) from 1993 to 2018 in a total of 88 transects distributed along Sierra Nevada, of which 33 have been continuously sampled since 2008.}, organization = {Projects "LIFE-ADAPTAMED: Protection of key ecosystem services by adaptive management of Climate Change endangered Mediterranean socioecosystems" LIFE14 CCA/ES/000612}, organization = {H2020 project "ECOPOTENTIAL: Improving future ecosystem benefits through earth observations" - European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme 641762}, organization = {Elter H2020 project "European Long-Term Ecosystem and Socio-Ecological Research Infrastructure" - European Union's Horizon 2020 programme 654359}, organization = {10010003}, organization = {10050010}, organization = {10040016}, organization = {676/2006/A/00}, organization = {1571/2007/M/00}, organization = {173/2009/M/00}, organization = {861/11/M/00}, organization = {03/15/M/00}, organization = {2016 _00014_M}, organization = {2017-00189M}, publisher = {Nature Publishing Group}, title = {Long-term monitoring of the Iberian ibex population in the Sierra Nevada of the southeast Iberian Peninsula}, doi = {10.1038/s41597-020-0544-1}, author = {Granados, José Enrique and Ros Candeira, Andrea and Pérez Luque, Antonio Jesús and Moreno Llorca, Ricardo and Cano Manuel, Francisco Javier and Fandos, Paulino and Soriguer, Ramón C. and Espinosa Cerrato, José and Pérez Jiménez, Jesús María and Ramos, Blanca and Zamora Rodríguez, Regino Jesús}, }
