Douglas M. Templeton from the University of Toronto authored the "Glossary of Terms Used in Immunotoxicology." It provides clear definitions for non-immunologists, especially chemists, contributing to immunotoxicology studies. The glossary includes about 1200 primary alphabetical entries and annexes on abbreviations, chemicals affecting the immune system, autoantibodies, and therapeutic agents.
800 primary alphabetical entries define terms for neurotoxicology, basic and clinical neurology, and the diagnosis and measurement of substance effects on the nervous system. Authored by Douglas M. Templeton of the University of Toronto, this glossary includes annexes of common abbreviations and examples of chemicals with known neurotoxic effects. Its primary objective is to aid chemists, toxicologists, pharmacologists, and regulatory authorities in understanding the literature without consulting multiple other sources.
Geophysical indicators and core analysis confirm microbial shallow gas and deeper migrating gas sources in the Arafura Sea. The survey recorded intense pockmark fields at densities of approximately 350 per square kilometer and identified correlations between benthic biodiversity and substrate hardness. This dataset was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in June 2026.
Charles S. Elton's field notes compiled from 1942 to 1965 while he was Director of the Bureau of Animal Population at Oxford University form the core of this archive. The collection includes transcriptions of seminars marking the Bureau's 30th anniversary and accounts of three Oxford expeditions to Svalbard in the 1920s. Professor Caroline Pond transcribed and edited the material between 2013 and 2014 using voice-activated software.
TrypTag is a genome-wide protein localisation project for the pathogen Trypanosoma brucei, created by researchers including Karen Billington at the University of Oxford. The master deposition includes a summary of localisations, scripts, code, primer sequences, and an index linking gene IDs to microscopy data hosted on Zenodo. Data can be browsed at TrypTag.org and mined via TriTrypDB.org.
TrypTag provides genome-wide subcellular protein localization data for the eukaryotic pathogen Trypanosoma brucei. The master deposition includes a localization summary, scripts, code, primer sequences, and an index linking gene IDs to microscopy data hosted on Zenodo. This resource was created by researchers at the University of Oxford and is associated with a 2023 publication in Nature Microbiology.
A report analyzing over three decades of Landsat satellite imagery from Digital Earth Australia to map and detect changes in coastal habitats across seven northern Australian estuaries. The work, part of the A12 Northern Seascapes Scoping Project, focuses on intertidal areas and mangroves critical for threatened and migratory shorebird species. The analysis employed tide-tagging and geometric median composites to overcome cloud interference and isolate tidal dynamics.
WISH-tags is a genomic tagging system developed by Benjamin B. J. Daniel at ETH Zurich for microbial strain enumeration. The dataset includes experimental validation of 62 distinct tags and their application in model and non-model bacterial members of mouse and plant microbiota. It was used to test intra-strain priority effects in the murine gut and Arabidopsis phyllosphere.
Vegetation data collected in the Gwydir Wetlands from 1999 to 2005 under the NSW Integrated Monitoring of Environmental Flows (IMEF) program. The dataset aims to establish relationships between wetland water regimes and plant diversity and abundance. It was published by the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water.
513 maps cover the whole of Australia, with 95% having a reliability date of 1994 or later. This specific map covers a 160 by 238 kilometer area of Shark Bay, depicting natural and constructed features like roads, vegetation, and contours. The Australian Ocean Data Network provides the map in JPEG, HTML, and PDF formats, with currency ranging from 1995 to 2009.
Australia's first Shark Action Plan assesses the national extinction risk for 328 cartilaginous fish species in Australian waters. The dataset includes taxa profiles for each species, with assessments applying IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in June 2026.
122 GB of raw multibeam echosounder data and 193 GB of watercolumn data were collected during the RV Investigator voyage IN2026_V01, titled 'Cook Ice Ecosystems and Sediments (COOKIES).' The voyage, operated by CSIRO, took place between January 02 and February 25, 2026, departing from and returning to Hobart. Data are stored in .kmall and .kmwcd formats and have been processed with motion correction, GPS tide application, and outlier removal.
January 02 to February 25, 2026, the RV Investigator voyage IN2026_V01 collected multibeam echosounder data around Antarctica. The dataset contains 15.7 GB of raw bathymetry and backscatter data and 30.1 GB of watercolumn backscatter data, processed for motion and tide corrections. Data are stored by the CSIRO Marlin Data Catalogue.
1079 raw files of sub-bottom profiler data collected during the RV Investigator voyage IN2026_V01 between January 02 and February 25, 2026. The Kongsberg SBP29 instrument acquired acoustic reflections from sediment interfaces below the seafloor using a frequency sweep from 2.5 to 7 kHz. Data are stored in .raw and .seg formats by CSIRO.
A proposed survey of a large marine reserve in South-Eastern Australia illustrates a method for integrating legacy sites into new survey designs. The dataset likely contains information for creating spatially balanced ecological survey designs that incorporate pre-existing monitoring locations. The methodology is described in a 2017 paper published in Methods in Ecology and Evolution.
Australia's first national dataset simultaneously mapping mangrove, saltmarsh, intertidal, and intertidal seagrass ecosystems at a continental scale. The product suite uses annual time-series of Sentinel-2 satellite imagery to provide consistent 10-meter resolution mapping. It is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network via Digital Earth Australia.
A project developed a water quality indicator based on benthic photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) for the Great Barrier Reef. It experimentally estimated irradiance thresholds for ecosystem health and created a remote sensing algorithm to map benthic irradiance throughout the GBR. The data and products were used in Reef Plan report cards, RIMReP monitoring, and assessments of cumulative risk drivers.
Peatland vegetation data from the Environmental Information Data Centre integrates laboratory, field, and satellite measurements to model carbon dynamics. Laboratory experiments on Sphagnum capillifolium and Sphagnum papillosum from the Forsinard Flows reserve measure Gross Primary Productivity and respiration under simulated drought. Field data from 2017 includes carbon fluxes, spectral reflectance, and microclimate measurements, while MODIS satellite data supports Temperature-Greenness-Wetness model development for peatland restoration assessment.
Water quality and biological data was collected from the Duck Bay estuary in North-Western Tasmania to assess draft indicator levels and investigate biological indicators of estuarine health. The data is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on 2026-07-22. The dataset likely contains measurements from tide-dominated river estuaries in catchments with varying levels of human impact.
2016-2017 data from a project investigating the influence of runoff from Papua New Guinea's Fly River on the Torres Strait and far northern Great Barrier Reef. The project, managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network, aimed to determine the spatial extent, temporal patterns, and pollutant constituents of the discharge to assess ecosystem vulnerability. Data files are available in PNG and HTML formats.
