Zooplankton samples were collected at Ocean Station 'P' (50.0000, -145.0000) from 1956 to 1980. The dataset contains total zooplankton wet weights per cubic meter for the entire period, densities for five major taxa from 1964 to 1967, and species identifications, counts, and lengths for many samples between 1968 and 1980.
Surveys from 2013 and 2014 sampled nekton assemblages in Zostera marina eelgrass beds and adjacent bare sediments on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, Canada. Data includes species-specific densities, calibrated for sampling gear and diel differences, derived from visual snorkel transects and benthic beam trawl samples. The dataset was published by Fisheries and Oceans Canada in April 2020.
Since 1990, this dataset contains standardized lumpfish catch rates from annual August research surveys in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence. It is compiled by Fisheries and Oceans Canada to assess groundfish and shrimp stocks, with catch variables calculated based on a standardized sampling area of 0.02353 km² per tow.
A National Spectral Database record for marine habitats on the south coast of Western Australia. The dataset likely contains spectral signatures of aquatic substrates collected via remote sensing in 2008. It was created by researchers from the National Research Flagship Wealth from Oceans program.
9026 Cyanobacteria and Melainabacteria genomes sourced from NCBI form the core of this collection. It includes a species tree file and sequence alignment data supporting a taxonomic study of uncultured organisms from extreme habitats. The dataset was published by Edi Sudianto et al. in 2026.
A spectral library for aquatic substrates hosted in Australia's National Spectral Database. The data originates from a CSIRO report on remote sensing for habitat mapping in Commonwealth marine protected areas. The record was last updated on 2026-05-05.
Tabusintac, Cocagne, and Bouctouche estuaries in northern New Brunswick were surveyed in 2008 using a towfish package with video and sidescan sonar. The dataset includes maps of eelgrass cover, health indicators like epiphyte load, and ancillary bottom features. The method provides sub-meter precision for bay-scale assessment in turbid water conditions.
Three marine spatial planning areas delineate the spatial extents for plans led by Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The areas cover the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence, the Newfoundland and Labrador Shelves, and the Scotian Shelf and Bay of Fundy. These planning areas are derived from Federal Marine Bioregions defined using ecosystem-based management principles.
Maps delineate significant concentrations of corals and sponges on Canada's east coast, produced through quantitative analysis of research vessel trawl survey data. The analysis applies kernel density estimation to model biomass surfaces for sponges, gorgonian corals, and sea pens, following a bio-regionalization approach. Results are compared to previous analyses from 2010.
A 2026 project from the Australian Ocean Data Network investigates the potential impacts of low-frequency sound from marine seismic surveys on marine fauna. The study includes six components: sound modelling, sound monitoring, benthic community assessment, bivalve assessment, fish avoidance behavior, and fisheries catch analysis. It was developed in response to stakeholder concerns about an April seismic survey in the Gippsland Basin.
2023 underwater imagery and sediment sampling surveys measured biodiversity and denitrification activity at oyster farms and natural reefs in England and Wales. The research project involved partners Tethys Oysters Ltd., Atlantic Edge Oysters Ltd., Envision Marine Ltd., and the University of Essex. Survey works included recording of underwater imagery, sediment sampling, oyster dredging, and ecosystem function sampling for genomic analysis.
Geoscience Australia conducted a field survey in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia, in March 2004 for the Coastal Water Habitat Mapping Project. The report documents procedures for collecting surface and subsurface sediment samples, including grab samples and vibracores. The results were intended for sediment classification, stratigraphic reconstruction, and ground-truthing sonar surveys.
Myanmar's approximate center point locations for over 100 power plants and larger electricity generation facilities. The dataset was produced by CDE Myanmar in 2025 based on satellite imagery, OpenStreetMap, and public reference data. It includes non-authoritative English names and a best-guess operational status for each facility.
Bynoe Harbour in Australia's Northern Territory provides sediment data from a 2016 survey. Geoscience Australia, the Australian Institute of Marine Science, and the Northern Territory Government collected this data during May 2016 on the RV Solander. The dataset comprises total oxygen uptake and total carbon dioxide release rates measured from core incubation experiments on seabed sediments.
Bynoe Harbour sediment oxygen demand data was collected by Geoscience Australia, AIMS, and the Northern Territory Government from 2-29 May 2016 on the RV Solander. The dataset comprises experimental results from seabed sediments collected during a survey focused on obtaining high-resolution bathymetry, characterizing substrates, and collecting tidal data. This work was part of a four-year (2014-2018) program to improve knowledge of marine environments in the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour regions.
A public register of accepted development vegetation clearing code notifications received by the Queensland Department of Resources. The data is provided by the Department of Natural Resources and Mines, Manufacturing and Regional and Rural Development and was last updated on May 4, 2026. The register likely contains records of notifications submitted under vegetation clearing codes.
2010 to present data on fishery bycatch estimates collected by NOAA Fisheries across all five U.S. regions. The report documents fishery- and species-specific bycatch for fish, marine mammals, sea turtles, seabirds, and corals using observer and self-reported logbook data. It is produced by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to help monitor trends and inform fishery management.
An experimental dataset measuring the influence of NPS fertilizer and chicken manure application rates on crop growth. It was created by Abrham Shumbulo and covers the 2021–2022 period. The dataset is 5.5 KB in size and is available in XLS format under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
Comprising metagenomic and cultivation data from five muddy rain samples collected in Granada, Spain, during 2021–2022. It identifies main microbial phyla like Pseudomonadota (64%) and Bacteroidota (13%), and lists 14 isolated cultivable microorganisms.
92 confirmed Vibrio species isolates from commercial fish in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility. The dataset includes resistance percentages for 12 antibiotics and the detection of specific resistance genes like blaTEM, mcr, and tet. The data was published by ASIPHE HOBE on figshare in April 2026.
