Palaeoshoreline features on the Australian continental shelf are mapped and analyzed in relation to Late Quaternary sea-level changes. The dataset, compiled by researchers including Brendan P. Brooke and published in 2017, identifies persistent modal sea-level positions at depths of 30-40 meters and 70-90 meters below present. It originates from the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in April 2026.
Middle Ordovician data from four boreholes in the Goldwyer Formation, Canning Basin, Western Australia. The dataset integrates palynological, petrographic, molecular, and stable isotopic analyses to determine depositional environments and microbial diversity. It was published in a 2017 study by researchers including Gemma Spaak and Kliti Grice.
DAERA conducts annual fish surveys in seven Northern Ireland river estuaries. This data is collected primarily for mandatory reporting to the European Union's Water Framework Directive. The dataset is published by the Government Digital Service under an open license.
Spatial data identifies mapped measures for the Local Nature Recovery Strategy in Wiltshire. It integrates Areas of Particular Importance to Biodiversity and highlights Areas that Could become of importance to form a connected habitat network. The data was published by Wiltshire Council and was last updated on 2026-04 09.
Shotgun metagenomics data from a commercial dairy investigates fungal communities in manure, lagoons, troughs, and flies. The study by Tawni L. Crippen, published on figshare in April 2026, compares two barn management systems and identifies locations of potential pathogens and beneficial species. The 97.8 KB dataset is available as a PDF.
430.3 KB of source data for figures in the manuscript 'Rates of Ascent of Plant Productivity and Isotherms Towards Mountain Summits' by Jiabin Fan et al. The data is hosted on figshare and was last updated on 2026-05-17. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
Jiabin Fan and colleagues provide code and data for their manuscript analyzing the ascent rates of plant productivity and isotherms on mountains. The dataset is 1.7 GB in size and was last updated on May 17, 2026. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.
Soil and microbial data from Pinus sylvestris plantations across four stand density levels and two soil depths. The dataset includes measurements of soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, enzyme activities, and microbial network properties. Fengzi Li published this research data on figshare in April 2026.
Geoscience Australia produced this map for the Australian Fisheries Management Authority to assist in enforcing Australia's maritime boundaries. The map uses icons to explain fishing zones in the Timor and Arafura Seas to Indonesian fishermen and was updated in 2019 to reflect the 2018 Australia/Timor-Leste Maritime Boundaries Treaty. It is an Indonesian translation and public release is managed through the Department of the Environment and Heritage and AFMA.
Towed video and still images of the Australian seafloor collected by Geoscience Australia from 2007 onwards. The collection includes footage from 21 marine surveys conducted between 2007 and 2013, covering coastal and deep-sea environments. Video was recorded 1-2 meters above the seabed, providing sharp images of geological features, habitats, and organisms.
2005 to present monitoring of inshore coral reef condition by the Australian Ocean Data Network. The program tracks percent cover of benthic organisms, juvenile coral densities, coral disease prevalence, and sediment composition across multiple Natural Resource Management regions. Data collection methods evolved from video frames to digital photography and standardized transect sampling.
High-resolution bathymetry data from the Coral Sea was collected aboard RV Falkor from March to April 2020. Dr. Rachel Przeslawski led a team from Geoscience Australia and other institutions to map unexplored submarine canyons in the Gascoyne Marine Park. The dataset includes 64m and 16m resolution 32-bit geotiffs for water depths shallower than 2560m.
60 strip-transects from a submersible survey quantify the relationships between deep-water demersal fish assemblages and seabed habitats across three spatial scales on Cordell Bank in central California. The dataset likely contains counts of fish species and habitat characteristics from in situ observer and video-recorded data. It was published via the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on 2026-04-16.
Incubation experiments tracked the re-establishment of bacterial and foraminiferal zonation in sieved intertidal sediments over 49 days. Foraminifera re-migrated to the top 3 mm of oxygenated sediment within 21 days, while total bacterial abundance did not recover to original levels. The Australian Ocean Data Network published this dataset on data.gov.au.
Australian Ocean Data Network tested the link between physical and biological datasets for benthic habitats in the southern Gulf of Carpentaria. The results reveal the importance of process-based indices, such as sediment mobility, in defining the distribution and diversity of benthic macrofauna. Species-environment relationships observed at a small scale are consistent with broader associations for other organisms within the Gulf.
Late Quaternary submarine and subaerial carbonate sediments deposited during marine oxygen isotope stage 5 on Lord Howe Island. The dataset likely contains geospatial and geological data on the island's volcanic structure, carbonate sediments, and erosional landforms, sourced from the Australian Ocean Data Network. Last updated on 2026-04-16.
License records for all valid Food Fish and Crustacea Dealers and Shippers in the current calendar year. The dataset includes entity names, locations, and dealer status, compiled by the New York State Department and last updated in April 2026. Licenses expire annually on December 31st and must be renewed.
Lord Howe Island shelf sediments supported an impoverished infaunal assemblage with a high proportion of rare, new, and endemic species. The dataset likely contains measurements from seabed mapping using high-resolution multibeam sonar and infauna sampling using a Smith-McIntyre grab. The data was aggregated by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
The Point Harris Marine Reserve on the northern coast of San Miguel Island, California, was surveyed using sidescan sonar and a towed camera-sled. The dataset contains real-time abiotic and biotic seabed characterizations logged from video observations, describing substratum type, physical structure, and benthic macrofauna and flora. The method was developed by the Australian Ocean Data Network to enable rapid processing and mapping of seabed data.
Three areas across the Torres Strait-Gulf of Papua shelf form a transect from the Fly River Delta to the Great Barrier Reef shelf edge. The Australian Ocean Data Network provides data on sediments and benthic fossil biota from this shallow platform where shelf depths range from 120 to 140 meters. Despite poor preservation of foraminiferal tests, the species distributions show a strong correlation to environmental variables like water depth, carbonate mud, gravel, and organic carbon flux.
