<div>The dataset shows the global distribution of islands greater than about 0.06 sq-km. The information given here relates to version 1 of the dataset. This dataset, also known as the IBPow (Island Biodiversity Programme of Work) database, has been developed in collaboration with the Institut de recherche pour le développement (IRD) since 2005. The International Environmental Forum (IEF), under the leadership of Arthur Dahl, was a major contributor at the initial stages of development.</div><div><br /></div><div>Other cited reference(s):<br /><ul><li>Depraetere C (2007).
