An assemblage of well-preserved microfossils from the approximately 1.3-billion-year-old McMinn Formation shales in Australia's Northern Territory. The microbiota includes algal cells, filaments, and large acritarchs, with evidence suggesting some organisms are eukaryotic. This flora is considered advanced for its Precambrian age and is preserved due to low thermal metamorphism, with geochemical studies indicating organic matter suitable for oil generation.
Australian Ocean Data Network provides a geological description of the Canning Basin in Western Australia. The basin covers approximately 430,000 km² onshore and 165,000 km² offshore and contains about 10,000 meters of sedimentary rock from the Palaeozoic, Mesozoic, and Cainozoic eras. The sequence is divided into 11 informal intervals, each representing one or more marine transgressions or regressions.
Polygon areas showing different dog walking zones within the City of Greater Geelong. The data indicates where dogs are permitted and specifies leash-on or leash-off regulations. It was created and is maintained by the City of Greater Geelong, with a last recorded update in April 2026.
Greater Geelong municipality provides polygon data detailing dog walking area regulations. The dataset indicates where dogs are permitted and specifies leash requirements. It was created and maintained by the City of Greater Geelong, with a last recorded update in April 2026.
2025 data identifies bush fire prone areas in Western Australia, including vegetation zones and surrounding 100-meter buffers. The dataset is maintained by the Office of Bushfire Risk Management and updated after each formal review. It is designed for integration with mapping systems.
DIRECTORIO PERSONAL DE PLANTA ISABU is a public directory of government personnel. The dataset is published on the Socrata platform via datos.gov.co and was last updated on 2026-05-18. It likely contains contact and role information for employees.
Insights into Extracellular Respiration Interfaces is a dataset by Xinyu Zhao, last updated in April 2026. It integrates molecular metacommunity ecology with theoretical models to probe extracellular electron transfer in compost, correlating redox sites with 88 humic-reducing microorganisms. The 38.4 MB dataset includes 35 models and 3D imaging snapshots of condensed molecules from three compost types.
Rebekah Davis from Borealis Harvested Dataverse published a dataset on April 25, 2026, containing photosynthetic light response curve data. It includes gas exchange measurements for a single accession of each of 28 diverse wild sunflower species (genus Helianthus) grown under controlled greenhouse conditions. Data was collected using a TARGAS-1 portable photosynthesis system across nine light levels.
Two habitat suitability models for the Eastern Whip-poor-will in eastern Georgian Bay, Ontario, were developed using MaxEnt and multi-criteria decision analysis. The models, created by Paul Grieve, were last updated in May 2026. They incorporate environmental predictors like distance to canopy openings and canopy cover variability, with both models identifying 7% of the landscape as highly suitable habitat.
Diamantina, Kermadec, and Mariana-Yap trench sediments provided 25 high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of Thaumarchaeota. The dataset includes 18 ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and 7 non-ammonia-oxidizing archaea (non-AOA) representatives. It was authored by Yue Zhang and last updated on 2026-04-19.
Additional file 2 from a study on convergent evolution in the phylum Methanobacteriota. The dataset comprises two Excel tables detailing genome characteristics and statistical properties for selected genomes. It was authored by Evgenii Protasov and last updated on May 3, 2026.
Camera trap data from a standardized 'camera column' approach monitoring mammal communities across three forest strata in the Congo Basin. The dataset, authored by Daniel Gorczynski and last updated in April 2026, supports a multi-species, multi-scale occupancy model to assess the influence of vertical space on species occupancy and community-environment relationships.
Mainland China is covered by a 50-km equal-area grid containing 367,017 occurrence records for 884 alien plant species across 4,129 grid cells. The dataset, created by Lin Chen, integrates GBIF records with Chinese digitized local records and includes derived grid-level richness and hotspot indicators. It was last updated on April 12, 2026, and supports modelling with climate, topographic, vegetation, soil, and anthropogenic predictors.
Acorn worms (Enteropneusta) are an unusual component of deep-sea benthic environments, important for nutrient cycling. This dataset quantifies their distribution, abundance, and trail-forming behavior from two large-scale deep-sea mapping surveys along the eastern and western continental margins of Australia. It provides the first evidence of strong depth-related distributions for this taxon within Australian waters.
Hotspot maps identify areas of high nearshore habitat richness, fish/invertebrate diversity, and biomass in Canada's Northern Shelf Bioregion. Data were derived from eight habitat features and DFO trawl and longline survey catch records, analyzed using the Getis-Ord G* tool in ArcGIS. The dataset was peer-reviewed by the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat in 2017.
Vertical allowance grids provide recommended height adjustments for infrastructure to mitigate future coastal flooding from sea level rise. The data is based on historical storm surge and tide statistics combined with IPCC sea level rise projections from AR5 (2020-2100) and AR6 (2020-2150). It is published by Fisheries and Oceans Canada and cited as Zhai, L., Greenan, B., Perrie, W. (2024).
2010-2011 monitoring data from the Shortlist research project on the ecological effects of early offshore wind farm construction. The study focuses on the distribution and effects on birds, fish, and marine mammals. The dataset is provided by the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, with reports hosted at www.informatiehuismarien.nl.
Bay of Fundy satellite data provides median yearly and seasonal climatologies of surface chlorophyll-a concentration and suspended particulate matter concentration from 2003 to 2021. The data is derived from daily MODIS Aqua satellite imagery at 300-meter resolution. It was created by Fisheries and Oceans Canada to support analysis of spatial and temporal trends in phytoplankton biomass and water turbidity.
The northern Lord Howe Rise and Gifford Guyot off eastern Australia provide geochemical data for deep-sea floor sediments at depths of 1300 to 2423 meters. Sediment characteristics analyzed include mineralogy, organic carbon and nitrogen concentrations and isotopic compositions, and major and trace elements. The dataset was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on 2026-04-16.
Yu Ren's study screened 10 plant extracts for antibacterial activity against a calf diarrhea-causing Escherichia coli strain. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) showed the largest inhibition zone (19.7 ± 0.3 mm) and was tested in vivo on mice infected with E. coli. The research was uploaded to figshare on 2026-04-09.
