Oceanographic data from the 2006 Deep Water Corals expedition aboard the R/V Western Flyer to the Davidson Seamount off Central California. The project aimed to characterize coral distribution patterns at depths between 1,250 and 3,700 meters using models, topographic indices, and substratum type. Complementary studies included biodiversity assessments, population dynamics, and coral age/growth analysis using radiometric techniques.
2.7 MB supplementary document analyzes extracellular vesicle-like particles (EVLPs) from Sophora flavescens and Periplaneta americana. Zhengting Wu authored this CC-BY-4.0 licensed dataset, last updated in April 2026. The document likely contains data on EVLP characterization, nutritional content analysis, and results from diabetic rat wound healing experiments.
NASA's OMG Narwhals project deployed seafloor moorings with acoustic recorders and oceanographic instruments near three glacier fronts in Melville Bay, northwest Greenland, to investigate why narwhals show high site fidelity to specific glacial outlets. The dataset contains ship-based full water column Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth (CTD) profiles collected during summer mooring deployment and recovery cruises. These measurements link physical ocean conditions to marine mammal presence in a rapidly changing Arctic environment.
April–July 2025 telemetry and environmental data for 147 European grayling in the Vöckla River, Austria. The dataset includes daily fish positions, water level, and temperature, collected via radio-tagging and mobile tracking surveys. It was created by Maxim Teichert and released under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
A report and associated data from the Australian Ocean Data Network, last updated in April 2026, reviewing and analyzing studies that used multiple sampling methods to assess marine benthic biodiversity. The analysis focuses on data from the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf in northern Australia and Icelandic waters from the BIOICE program, investigating biodiversity patterns in relation to depth, geomorphology, and substrate. The work examines the consistency of ecological relationships across different sampling gear types like sleds, trawls, grabs, and imaging systems.
The SS2012t07 survey collected 261 voucher specimens of benthic marine life during a transit between Darwin and Cairns from 15-24 October 2012. The program, undertaken by the R.V. Southern Surveyor, used an ROV and benthic sled to gather sessile invertebrates like sponges and octocorals for biodiversity and biodiscovery research. Specimens were collected from two mapped areas, including a bank and a terrace/hole feature, with 49 samples designated for the Australian Biological Laboratory and larger samples sent to the NCI for screening against cancer and HIV.
A 2021 spatial dataset mapping the condition of fringing vegetation in Victorian estuaries for the Index of Estuarine Condition. The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action created it by field-mapping vegetation extent and condition, classifying it by Ecological Vegetation Classes and scoring it for weed invasion and structural resemblance to benchmarks. It includes scores for areas that could not be directly observed, which were estimated based on surveyed patches.
Landgate annually produces vegetation change products identifying transitions between forest, sparse woody, and non-woody classifications from Landsat imagery. The dataset includes change classes such as non-woody to forest, forest to non-woody, and sparse to forest.
Satellite-derived data maps the spatial and temporal variability of coastal upwelling systems along 4500 km of Australia's southeastern coast. The dataset likely contains monthly measurements of sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll-a concentrations, and upwelling speed anomalies over 14 years. It was produced by researchers Zhi Huang and Xiao Hua Wang and published in Remote Sensing of Environment in 2019.
European fireflies of the genus Luciola, including five species: L. italica, L. lusitanica, L. pedemontana, L. mingrelica, and L. novaki. The dataset includes COI sequences from 86 L. lusitanica s.l. and 6 L. italica specimens, supporting integrative species delimitation. It was authored by Viviane C. S. Nunes and last updated in April 2026.
Western Australia vegetation change products identify transitions in perennial woody cover between forest, sparse woody, and non-woody classifications for the 2015-2016 period. The dataset is produced by Landgate using 30-meter resolution Landsat imagery. Change classes include no change, non-woody to sparse, non-woody to forest, sparse to non-woody, forest to non-woody, and forest to sparse.
A systematic cross-reference mapping 44 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) against seven Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification and assessment instruments. The dataset contains three sheets detailing KPI coverage, MSC Standard Performance Indicators, and pathway instrument descriptions. It was authored by Louise Gammage and last updated on 2026-05-11.
A 2022-23 multi-year project delivers a broad habitat map for the whole of England. It is created by Natural England using satellite imagery, field data, and other geospatial data in a machine learning framework, aligned to the UKBAP classification. The map supports the Defra Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment Programme and Environmental Land Management Schemes.
Pressures and threats for individual bird species in the UK, ranked by impact and reliability. These data were submitted by the UK to the EU as part of the Tenth UK Report for Article 12 of the EU Birds Directive, covering the period 2008-2012. The dataset uses a standardized EU list of factors and includes rankings for importance, assessment quality, and impact location.
147 species conservation status records from the 3rd UK Habitats Directive Report submitted in October 2013. The dataset comprises source data from four UK countries and the offshore environment, covering 83 terrestrial and 42 marine species in the Atlantic region, plus 4 terrestrial and 18 marine species in the Gibraltar Mediterranean region. It was compiled by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee for the mandatory six-year EU reporting cycle.
Source data from the 2013 UK Habitats Directive report details the conservation status of habitats across the UK. The dataset covers 69 terrestrial and 8 marine habitats for the reporting period 2007-2012, aggregated from the four UK countries and offshore areas. It was compiled by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee for submission to the European Commission.
The United Kingdom's 2013 report to the European Commission details the conservation status of 147 species across terrestrial and marine regions. The Joint Nature Conservation Committee compiled this data, which includes 83 terrestrial and 42 marine species in the UK Atlantic region, plus 4 terrestrial and 18 marine species in Gibraltar. It presents conclusions and parameters for each species, with links to individual PDF reports.
Two spreadsheets contain microbial and environmental data from a study on tropical Andean mountain peatlands. The data includes ASV reads with taxonomic and functional information, and associated environmental variables. The dataset is 230.3 KB in size and was authored by Angela Lafuente.
Traditional orchards are a UK Biodiversity Action Plan priority habitat, identified as among the most threatened and requiring conservation action. This spatial dataset contains the location of these orchard sites across Wales, which are ecologically distinct from wood-pasture and parkland due to tree species, density, and management for fruit and nut production. The data is provided by the Government Digital Service under an OGL-UK-3.0 license.
A critique of a 2006 study analyzing macrobenthos and meiobenthos distribution within two geomorphic facies of four intermittently closed and open estuaries (ICOLLs) in New South Wales, Australia. The comment argues the study was not an appropriate test of the Roy et al. (2001) habitat classification model. The document is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on June 4, 2026.
