A figshare dataset by Jerry Akanwari, last updated April 10, 2026, containing primer pairs used in a metabarcoding study. The 5.5 KB Excel file compares the performance of three primer pairs (NF1, NemF, NemFopt) for assessing nematode communities from soil-extracted and nematode-extracted DNA. The study was conducted using agricultural soils from two field sites.
2011 habitat data for Greater Sage-grouse in Idaho, developed by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management. This landscape-scale map delineates key habitat areas and four restoration potential types, covering all of Idaho and a small managed area in Nevada. The dataset is intended for conservation planning at a 1:100,000 scale.
A four-year collaborative habitat mapping program within the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour region produced this report. It is the second of three reports providing scientific analyses and interpretations from the program. The work was undertaken by Geoscience Australia, the Australian Institute of Marine Science, and the Northern Territory Government Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
Geoscience Australia produced this map for the Australian Fisheries Management Authority to assist enforcement of maritime boundaries. Updated in 2019 to reflect the 2018 Australia/Timor-Leste Maritime Boundaries Treaty, it uses icons to explain fishing zones to Indonesian fishermen. The map is not for public release by Geoscience Australia but through DEH and AFMA.
Australia's near-pristine estuaries serve as a baseline for environmental studies. The dataset describes a project by Geoscience Australia Data, last updated in May 2026, which studies these systems for their natural, cultural, and biodiversity values. The information is used to understand human impact and inform natural resource management.
60 Australian Marine Parks covering 3.8 million square kilometers are managed by Parks Australia. This project will generate aggregated survey data on public knowledge, attitudes, and usage patterns, building on a 2019/20 benchmark to support a statutory management plan review scheduled for 2028. Outputs include responses from recreational user surveys and a final technical report, managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Redmap is a community science platform inviting the public to log uncommon marine species sightings along the South Australian coast. The dataset includes verified sightings with photos and anecdotal community reports, collecting species, location, date/time, activity, and optional biological and environmental data. It is maintained by the Australian Ocean Data Network, updated live, and subject to a three-year data embargo.
Paleoecological evidence from the western and northern Cordillera tests assumptions about glacial climate conditions. The dataset likely contains pollen, plant macrofossil, and beetle data from periods including the Olympia interval (>59 to 25-29 ka) and the 18-19 ka Fraser/Puget Lowlands. It was published by the Government of Yukon and last updated on April 17, 2026.
A 20-item multiple-choice test measuring critical thinking skills in four aspects: analyzing, evaluating, interpreting, and inferring. The instrument, developed by Burhan Burhan and last updated in April 2026, contextualizes items within local wisdom phenomena like traditional boat construction and seaweed cultivation. Quantitative data includes individual scores, gender information, and average scores from pre-test and post-test results in experimental and control classes.
Experimental data from a study on Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) raised under simulated heatwave or cold snap conditions from hatching to adulthood. The dataset includes biometric and thermoregulatory measurements taken at three developmental stages, exploring phenotypic plasticity and temperature tolerance limits. The data was authored by Maria Correia and last updated in April 2026.
A synthesis of pluton data records the transition from arc to syn-collisional and post-collisional magmatism in Yukon's Intermontane terranes. The dataset, hosted by the Government of Yukon on open_canada, supports a revised tectonic model involving slab rollback and lithospheric delamination. It was last updated on April 17, 2026.
A method for creating spatially balanced ecological survey designs that incorporate existing legacy monitoring sites. The approach is illustrated using a proposed survey of a large marine reserve in South-Eastern Australia. The methodology is described in a 2017 paper published in Methods in Ecology and Evolution.
Digital Earth Australia's Coastal Ecosystems product suite provides annual, continental-scale maps of mangrove, saltmarsh, intertidal, and intertidal seagrass ecosystems. The dataset is derived from Sentinel-2 satellite imagery at 10-meter resolution and is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network. The metadata was last updated on April 16, 2026.
Three areas across the Torres Strait-Gulf of Papua shelf form a transect from the Fly River Delta to the shelf edge. The dataset likely contains measurements of sediment composition, foraminiferal assemblages, and environmental variables like water depth, temperature, and salinity. It was published by Geoscience Australia Data, with a last recorded update in 2026.
Shark Bay in Western Australia is covered by a topographic map spanning approximately 160 km east-west and 238 km north-south. The map series, provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network, includes natural features, road infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, and 50m contours for the Francois Peron National Park and Shark Bay Marine Park. A satellite image with overlays of roads and tourism features is on the reverse side, and the broader series covers all of Australia with 513 maps dated from 1995 to 2009.
Lord Howe Island and Balls Pyramid in the Pacific Ocean are the focus of this dataset from Geoscience Australia. It describes the geomorphological evolution and carbonate sediment production of these volcanic islands, which are at the latitudinal limit for coral reef growth. The data includes information on landforms, sediment dating, and the development of the southernmost coral reef in the Pacific.
High-resolution bathymetry data for the Cape Range and Cloates Canyons area in the Gascoyne Marine Park, Australia. The dataset includes 64m and 16m resolution 32-bit GeoTIFFs produced from multibeam sonar data collected aboard the RV Falkor from March 8 to April 8, 2020. The survey was led by Dr. Rachel Przeslawski of Geoscience Australia with a team from Curtin University, Western Australian Museum, and Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a dataset from a study examining the spatial distributions and benthic habitat associations of deep-water demersal fish species across Cordell Bank in central California. The data was gathered from 60 strip-transects using in situ observer and video-recorded data from a two-person submersible. The study analyzed fish abundance and assemblage composition in relation to seabed habitats at multiple spatial scales, from broad bank features to fine-scale transitions.
Gippsland Basin seafloor images collected by an AUV-Phoenix vehicle from June 19-25, 2015. The dataset contains stereo camera images, track files, and mosaics from 12 sites, intended to analyze potential impacts of a seismic survey on scallops. Data was collected by Australian Marine Ecology and the University of Sydney for the Gippsland Marine Environmental Monitoring project.
A multi-omics dataset characterizing soil phenotypes, microbiomes, and metabolomes from five sampling sites near the Moutai production area across spring and autumn seasons. The data was generated by Qiong Li using high-throughput sequencing and untargeted metabolomics, and was last updated in April 2026. It includes measurements of microbial biomass, dominant taxa, differential metabolites, and multi-omics correlations.
