The 46.4 KB dataset includes a description of constructing brush shelters, a 1-2 week waiting period, and the use of protective medicine against crocodiles. Marie-Annick Moreau authored this resource, last updated on 2026-06-03.
109.2 MB audio file of a group interview with basket trap fishers. The men discuss their fishing practice, including dangers and prayers spoken at the start of fishing, recorded by Marie-Annick Moreau. The file was last updated on 2026-06-03.
Marie-Annick Moreau published an audio recording of a group interview with basket trap fishers on figshare in June 2026. The 109.2 MB WAV file captures men discussing their fishing practice, including dangers and prayers spoken at the start of fishing. The interview was conducted after they changed into dry clothes, sitting by a pond next to fishing camp shelters.
A PDF document containing an oral history interview with Mzee Kulenga and Mzee Ndile discussing the transmission of traditional knowledge for making basket traps. The record was authored by Marie-Annick Moreau and shared on figshare under a CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0 license. It was last updated on June 3, 2026.
A 66.8 KB PDF document by Marie-Annick Moreau, last updated on June 3, 2026. It contains a discussion where Mzee Kulenga and Mzee Ndile describe learning and transmitting the skill of making basket traps from their elders. The description suggests the document captures perspectives on cultural inheritance and contemporary challenges in fishing.
50 prominent peatland plant species distributions were modeled for Sichuan Province, China, from 1981-2010 and projected for 2071-2100 under three climate scenarios. The dataset, authored by Zhengxuan Wei and shared on figshare, uses the MaxEnt model to link species presence with environmental variables like snow cover days and slope. It forecasts habitat changes and identifies key environmental drivers, with results indicating a general decrease in suitable habitats and species richness under future climate conditions.
Reef Life Survey and Australian Temperate Reef Collaboration divers collected records of bony fishes and elasmobranchs along standardized 50-meter transects on shallow rocky and coral reefs. The data, contributed by multiple Australian state agencies and research partners, supports the establishment of national marine baselines and the management of marine reserves. This dataset supersedes a previous global collection, with provision of the older data stopped in June 2021.
Spectral absorption and fluorescence characteristics of colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and coincident hyperspectral water remote sensing reflectance measurements collected during NASA's 2023 Biodiversity Survey of the Cape (BioSCape) field campaign. The dataset covers three coastal bays and four inland aquatic systems within South Africa's Greater Cape Floristic Region. It is provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to support remote sensing algorithm development.
Geochemical data characterizes deep-sea floor sediments from the Lord Howe Rise plateau and Gifford Guyot seamount off eastern Australia. The dataset includes analyses of mineralogy, organic carbon and nitrogen concentrations and isotopes, and major and trace elements. It was published by Geoscience Australia Data and last updated in May 2026.
Boundaries of Aboriginal Heritage Impact Permits (AHIPs) issued, varied, surrendered, or revoked under Section 90a of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974. The data is provided by the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water and was last updated on 2026-05-13. Some AHIPs are excluded from the layer due to poor data quality or missing information.
Strategic Biodiversity Values (SBV) is a decision-support product providing a spatially explicit view of relative biodiversity importance across the Victorian landscape. It integrates information on threatened species areas, depletion levels, connectivity, vegetation types, and condition. The dataset is provided by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action and was last updated on 2026-04 27.
Experimental data from a fertilization study in northeastern Florida's coastal wetlands, measuring mangrove height, canopy width, and marsh stem density. The dataset was created by Therese Adgie and includes measurements from two sites within the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve. Fertilization treatments began in May 2022 at one site and May 2024 at another, with measurements taken roughly every 3-4 months.
High-Resolution Rectified Aerial Photography for Collaborative Research of Environmental Change at Barrow, Alaska, USA, Version 1 is a collection of aerial images from NASA and the NSIDC. The dataset contains photography from eight specific dates between 1948 and 1997, which has been geocorrected to a 2002 QuickBird satellite or IFSAR reference. Data are provided in GeoTIFF and ESRI Shapefile formats with FGDC metadata.
144,001 cleaned occurrence records for 643 sedge species in Africa, collected from 1894 to 2023. The dataset, created by Benjamin Darko Williams, also includes a dated phylogeny of the order Poales and four phylogenomic tree files. This research aims to resolve taxonomic challenges in the genus Ficinia within the Cyperaceae family.
Geospatial data from the Great Barrier Reef quantifies the extent of near-sea-surface and deep coral reef habitats. The dataset indicates 16,110 km² of seabed is capped by near-sea-surface reefs, while 25,600 km² of submerged bank area represents potential deep reef habitat. This data was produced by researchers including Peter T. Harris and published in the ICES Journal of Marine Science in 2013.
2561 individual polychaetes were collected from 266 sediment samples in the Oceanic Shoals Australian Marine Park between 2009 and 2012. The dataset, published by Geoscience Australia in 2019, includes 368 species and 43 families, providing a species-level inventory. It was used to examine variation in assemblages, relationships with environmental factors, and patterns across taxonomic and functional groups.
