Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone covers 8.6 million square kilometres, extending from tropical to mid-latitude waters. The data likely contains interdisciplinary marine research focusing on physical, chemical, biological, and sedimentological processes. It is hosted by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in May 2026.
Reef Life Survey (RLS) data shows the location of diver-surveyed sites along 50m transects on shallow rocky and coral reefs worldwide. The dataset contains only spatial information for sites, with repeat surveys excluded. This version is superseded by a synthesized global dataset from the National Reef Monitoring Network (NRMN).
Data from six experimental warming studies in the United States, compiled by Kara Dobson and last updated in April 2026. The dataset includes species' relative abundances per plot, year, and treatment, along with functional type classifications and thermal niche estimates derived from GBIF occurrence records. The associated analysis code is available on Zenodo.
A 25.0 KB dataset on figshare by Weibo Shen, last updated in 2026, analyzes soil organic carbon accumulation mechanisms in glacier meltwater-fed wetlands. It compares soil properties, microbial necromass carbon, and extracellular polymeric substances across three anaerobic flooding gradients: non-flooding, wet-dry alternation, and long-term flooding in the 0-60 cm soil layer. The research highlights differential microbial adaptation strategies driving carbon sequestration potential in alpine wetlands.
Western Australia's Swan Coastal Plain and Perth-Peel region features polygon data representing remnant native vegetation extent for 2005. The dataset is part of a multi-temporal series mapping pre-1750 vegetation remnants for 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020, and 2024. Polygons were interpreted using historical and current aerial photography dating from 1953 to the present.
Natural England's provisional inventory of wood-pasture and parkland areas across England, containing 9,815 polygons covering approximately 278,004.57 hectares. The data was collated from existing inventories, local record centres, and councils, and verified using historical maps and aerial photography from 1976 onward. Each record includes a confidence level based on source data quality.
IMOS National Reference Station data provides phytoplankton abundance and biovolume estimates from nine regular sampling stations around the Australian coastline. The Australian Ocean Data Network manages this dataset, which includes samples collected monthly via integrated water sampling at 10m depth intervals. Data products are binned for time series analysis and account for taxonomic changes over time.
Zooplankton abundance estimates from monthly samples collected at nine National Reference Stations around the Australian coastline. The dataset is produced by the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) plankton ecology lab, with sampling ongoing since at least 2002. It includes community composition, biomass, and size spectrum analysis for ecological time-series studies.
Karen Sweazea authored a dataset measuring the relative abundance of insulin and glucagon in the pancreas of birds. The dataset is a 20.4 KB DOCX file, last updated on 2026-05-27. It is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.
A collection of animal-derived peptides with insulinotropic or anti-diabetic properties, as well as host defense peptides. The dataset was authored by Karen Sweazea and is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license. It was last updated on May 27, 2026.
Northern Gulf of Mexico measurements collected for a project linking pelagic Sargassum habitat to fisheries recruitment. The dataset is managed by NASA in collaboration with the University of South Florida (USF) and the University of Southern Mississippi (USM). It contains oceanographic measurements relevant to habitat evaluation.
Polygon data maps remnant native vegetation for the Swan Coastal Plain bioregion and Perth-Peel region in 2020. The dataset is part of a temporal series representing vegetation extent at five-year intervals from 2000 to 2020 and the year 2024. Mapping was performed by the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation using historical and current aerial photography.
Alaska and the western Yukon Territory are the focus of this dataset, which provides methane flux estimates derived from airborne measurements collected during the Carbon in Arctic Reservoirs Vulnerability Experiment (CARVE) between 2012 and 2014. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration produced these state-scale fluxes using atmospheric profiles, lagrangian transport modeling, and statistical relationships with environmental variables like soil temperature. The data includes modeled fluxes and related uncertainties at monthly and daily frequencies.
Perch (Perca fluviatilis) abundance, sex, age, length, and weight data were collected from four sites in Windermere's North and South Basins from 1943 to 2019. The data were initially collected by the Freshwater Biological Association and later by UKCEH and its predecessors. The dataset captures a major pathogen outbreak in 1976 that induced massive mortality among large mature individuals.
Australian Ocean Data Network published this dataset on data_gov_au. It likely contains data from pulse tests conducted on West Kingfish in December 1987. The dataset is a legacy product, and no abstract or detailed metadata is available.
158 wetlands were monitored under the South West Wetlands Monitoring Program from 1977 to 2019. The program was conducted by the Western Australian Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, with monitoring frequency varying between annual and bi-monthly intervals over the decades.
2015 mapping of remnant native vegetation polygons for the Swan Coastal Plain bioregion and Perth-Peel Region Schemes. The dataset is part of a temporal series representing vegetation extent for 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020, and 2024. Polygons were interpreted using aerial photography from 1953 to the present and include simplified condition attributes.
A methodology case study from northern Australia demonstrates techniques for mapping marine habitats using physical surrogates. The work quantifies uncertainties from extrapolating bio-physical relationships, interpolating physical data, and applying cluster analysis. The dataset is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in April 2026.
Fragmentary Late Devonian (likely Famennian) fish remains from the Knobby Sandstone in the eastern Canning Basin, Western Australia. The fauna includes a new species of Bothriolepis, other antiarch placoderm fragments, and rhipidistian teeth and scales, preserved as moulds in coarse sandstone. The data is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on 2026-05 04.
A 2018 framework-derived dataset evaluating the habitat potential for pelagic, epibenthic, and benthic species across all known submarine canyons on the Australian continental margin. The methodology, developed by researchers including Zhi Huang and Thomas A. Schlacher, uses geomorphic and oceanographic heterogeneity as a surrogate for ecological condition. The dataset is hosted by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated on the platform in April 2026.
