A 2026 dataset from Fisheries and Oceans Canada defines nine nearshore macrofauna epibenthic biotopes and three physiotopes along the British Columbia coastline. It includes 71 species distribution models predicting occurrence probabilities based on benthic habitat survey data and environmental variables. The dataset aims to fill knowledge gaps for marine planning and conservation initiatives.
CTD data from 83 deployments during the RV Investigator voyage IN2024_V03, which took place from May 01 to May 31, 2024. The data were collected using a Sea-Bird SBE911 CTD unit and auxiliary sensors, processed with automated quality control, and archived by CSIRO's National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre. The voyage aimed to untangle causes of change in the southeast marine ecosystem over 25 years.
Brisbane City Plan 2014 is Brisbane City Council's plan for the future development of Brisbane. This feature class, shown on the Biodiversity areas overlay map, includes sub-categories for areas of high ecological significance, biodiversity interface, and general ecological significance. The dataset is published under a CC-BY-4.0 license by Brisbane City Council and was last updated in June 2026.
Brisbane City Plan 2014 includes an Airport Environs Overlay defining three concentric risk zones for bird and bat strikes. The dataset, provided by Brisbane City Council, categorizes areas within 0-3km, 3-8km, and 8-13km from the airport. It was last updated on 2026-06-28 15:31:07.739431.
A geospatial feature class from Brisbane City Plan 2014 defining zones for aviation safety and public protection around the airport. The dataset is maintained by Brisbane City Council and was last updated in June 2026. It forms part of the regulatory overlay maps used for planning and development decisions.
Brisbane City Council area vegetation data classifies regional ecosystems and non-remnant cover types. The dataset is derived from the Queensland Herbarium's Regional Ecosystems 2015 dataset and was last updated on 2026-06-28. It distinguishes between remnant vegetation and eight non-remnant categories such as exotic species, plantations, and disturbed areas.
Australian trial sites provide data on the survivorship of lab-selected warm-adapted giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) genotypes after outplanting. The dataset is associated with NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub Project E7 and is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network. Data from a third trial site with no surviving kelp were excluded.
Brisbane City Council's mapping of protected vegetation in wetlands and waterways under the Natural Assets Local Law 2003. The data likely contains polygons delineating these protected natural areas, which provide habitat and help maintain water quality. The dataset is provided by Brisbane City Council and was last updated on 2026-06-28.
Brisbane City Council's dataset maps Significant Urban Vegetation protected under the Natural Assets Local Law 2003. The data includes mature, prominent, or culturally/historically valuable native and exotic vegetation on private property, which may be individual trees, small groups, or entire properties. This mapping excludes vegetation protected in the last six weeks, by development approvals, heritage listings, or covenants.
Brisbane City Council's geospatial data identifies properties with Significant Native Vegetation protected under the Natural Assets Local Law 2003. The mapping excludes vegetation protected in the last six weeks, by development conditions, heritage status, or covenants. This dataset is published by Brisbane City Council under a CC-BY-4.0 license and was last updated on 2026-06-28.
Brisbane City Plan 2014 includes an overlay map defining zones for public safety and wildlife strike risk around the airport. The dataset is maintained by Brisbane City Council and was last updated on 2026-06-28. It contains sub-categories such as the airport runway area for public safety.
Brisbane City Council's Natural Assets Local Law 2003 protects natural assets like bushland, wetlands, and trees. This mapping dataset specifically covers Council Vegetation, including street trees and park trees on land owned or controlled by the Council. The data is provided by Brisbane City Council and was last updated on 2026-06-28, though it excludes vegetation protected in the last six weeks or by other legal instruments.
Great Britain was surveyed for radiocaesium contamination following the 1986 Chernobyl accident. The dataset contains concentrations measured in soil, vegetation, wildlife, and fungi from national surveys in 1986-1987 and more intensive regional studies in Cumbria, Wales, and North Yorkshire from 1989 to 1997. This spatial and temporal data is described as suitable for interpolation and modeling.
The Coral Sea Marine Park voyage IN2025_V06 collected conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) data between October 10 and November 14, 2025. Data for 41 CTD deployments were processed and archived by CSIRO's National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre. The dataset includes auxiliary sensor readings for dissolved oxygen, fluorescence, chlorophyll, and turbidity.
A project from the NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub provides data and analyses on anthropogenic pressures affecting Australia's marine environment. The research aims to inform decision-making under the EPBC Act and management of Commonwealth Marine Reserves. Outputs include summaries of pressure trends from 1991 to 2015 for offshore and inshore areas.
Sediment samples from three Australian coastal wastewater treatment plant outfalls were analyzed for five contaminant groups. The project compared contaminant retention between shallow, retentive environments in South Australia and a deep, dispersive outfall in New South Wales. This record is part of a larger study by the Australian Ocean Data Network, with results described separately for effluent and seawater.
37 CTD casts collected by the RV Investigator during the COOKIES voyage between January and February 2026. Data includes conductivity, temperature, depth, dissolved oxygen, and auxiliary sensor readings like PAR and Chlorophyll-A. The dataset was processed and archived by CSIRO's National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre.
Western Australia's relative abundance of 23 commercially exploited pelagic fish species is mapped on a 0.5-degree spatial grid. The data covers the period 1997-2006 and is derived from an analysis of commercial landings by the Sea Around Us Project. Details are published in Bouchet et al., 2017, in Global Ecology and Biogeography.
1150 baited remote underwater video sequences were used to quantify fish biodiversity on the continental shelf of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. The study, conducted by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) as part of the MTSRF 1.1.5 project, aimed to assess seabed biodiversity and its environmental correlates. Fish observations were interpolated over the whole GBR using Generalized Additive Models, producing a gridded dataset available as KML.
Australia's continental shelf is the focus of this study modelling seabed sediment mobilisation by waves and currents. The analysis, provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network, applies the intermediate disturbance hypothesis to derive a dimensionless ecological disturbance index. It represents a first-of-its-kind analysis for any continental shelf on Earth, last updated in June 2026.
