Predictive ecosystem mapping underestimates wetland area by approximately two thirds compared to detailed mapping in the Indian River drainage. The Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in Traditional Territory contains large wetland concentrations in the Ogilvie Mountains and Tintina Trench. Overall wetland coverage for all study areas is estimated to be upwards of 10% of the landscape, influenced by terrain, sedimentation, periglacial processes, and discontinuous permafrost.
Manitoba data on chronic wasting disease (CWD) sampling results for deer, elk, moose, and caribou. The dashboard shows data by species, hunting season, and location since the first confirmed case in 2021, including 30 positive cases identified. It was created by the Manitoba Wildlife Directorate and is updated as of May 2026.
Arctic-wide surveys conducted by the Canadian Wildlife Service, U.S. Geological Survey, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to estimate shorebird populations. The data likely contains species-specific counts from rapid surveys across a large study area, supporting population size estimation and trend monitoring. The dataset was last updated on April 23, 2026.
A subset of data for 2012 used to train gradient boosted trees analyzing bird migration intensity. The data integrates NEXRAD radar data with weather and terrestrial factors within 2-hour segments to assess within-night variation in predictor importance. The dataset was created by Miguel Jimenez and last updated on 2026-04-24.
An exhaustive list of drosophilid flies sampled directly from a naturally fermenting fig resource on a rainforest floor in Thailand's Khao Sok region. The collection targeted species of the Drosophila immigrans group, identifying 10 distinct species with seriate spinescent femoral setation. The dataset was created by Shane McEvey and last updated in May 2026.
Experimental microevolution of two Candida auris isolates generated strains with stable echinocandin resistance and increased azole tolerance. Whole-genome sequencing revealed mutations in FKS1 and other genes, while murine infection models showed retained or enhanced colonization. This 1.1 MB dataset, authored by Flora Bohner and last updated in May 2026, includes findings suggesting C. auris can acquire resistance without compromising pathogenicity.
Mean annual fluxes of inorganic, organic, and total carbon are estimated for three coastal ecosystem types across eastern North America. The dataset, produced by NASA, provides per-unit-area and spatially integrated values for tidal wetlands, estuaries, and shelf waters. It synthesizes data from multiple sources covering a period from roughly 1976 to 2017.
928.0 KB of data used to project filovirus binding strength predictions across bat species. The dataset integrates functional trait variables, geographic information, habitat associations, and phylogenetic context for bat species from several published trait databases. It was created by Adrian Castellanos and last updated on May 20, 2026.
Twenty-four terrestrial biosphere models provide standardized output for six key ecosystem variables at 47 eddy covariance flux tower sites across North America. The dataset was compiled for the North American Carbon Program Site-Level Synthesis to enable model intercomparison and assessment of carbon process simulations across diverse vegetation and environmental conditions. Output and gap-filled observations are available at half-hourly, daily, monthly, and annual temporal aggregations.
Scooter Assisted Large Area Diver-based (SALAD) surveys of Crown-of-Thorns Starfish (CoTS) in the northern Great Barrier Reef from 2019 to 2025. The dataset comprises two inter-related tables recording survey track data and individual starfish measurements. Surveys were supported by multiple funding programs including LIRS, CCIP, and NESP.
A 50 x 50 km area of the Superior National Forest near Ely, Minnesota, was the focus of a NASA experiment during the summers of 1983 and 1984. The dataset integrates satellite, aircraft, helicopter, and ground observations to investigate relationships between radiometric signals and forest biophysical properties like leaf area index, biomass, and net primary productivity. It was designed to support scaling from aircraft to satellite measurements for remote sensing of ecosystem parameters.
Cocos (Keeling) Island is a mid-ocean atoll located approximately 3,685km west of Darwin. This report from the Australian Ocean Data Network describes the creation of four detailed bathymetry grids for the region, integrating seabed data with island topography. The data are intended for identifying seabed processes and habitats and for modelling tsunami interactions with the island's shelf and coast.
The List of Vertebrate Fauna of Quebec (LFVQ) provides a portrait of all wild vertebrate species documented on Quebec territory. It contains detailed taxonomy, residence status, provincial conservation priority, and legal designation status. The list was first published in 1983 and is now maintained by the Ministry of Forests, Wildlife and Parks using data from the Quebec Natural Heritage Data Center.
3261 grid cell records provide monthly climate variables and vegetation types for the contiguous United States. This dataset supports the intercomparison of biogeochemistry and vegetation distribution models to assess sensitivity to climate change and elevated CO2. Each record contains geographic coordinates, elevation, and Kuchler and VEMAP vegetation classifications alongside 12 monthly values.
One variable, vegetation type, is mapped across the contiguous United States on a 0.5-degree latitude/longitude grid. This dataset provides a physiognomic classification of potential natural vegetation, based on Kuchler's map, for use in biogeochemistry and biogeography model intercomparisons. It is designed to assess ecosystem sensitivity to changing climate and elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations (355 ppm).
24.1 KB of data from figshare investigates the ecological consequences of photovoltaic (PV) infrastructure expansion on soil ecosystems. The dataset likely contains measurements of soil microbial communities and ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) across arable land, forest land, and tailings. Yang Shi authored this dataset, which was last updated on June 2, 2026.
96 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) assigned to 17 classes were discovered in cetaceans from the East China Sea, including 6 classes reported for the first time. The dataset, created by Kai Huang and last updated in May 2026, integrates global data to analyze drivers of PFAS burden and associated estrogenic risks. It reveals that 82.6% of studied cetacean populations were under potential estrogenic risk.
Chandranshu Tiwari's dataset contains 537 psychoacoustic monitoring encounters of katydid activity from 2015 to 2020. The data was collected at two sites in Northeast India and the Western Ghats to evaluate the effect of ambient light, temperature, and humidity. It includes comparisons across seasons and between grassland and understorey ecosystems.
A comment published by the Australian Ocean Data Network critiques Williams et al. (2009) on the use of geomorphic features as surrogates for benthic biodiversity in Marine Protected Area (MPA) design. The comment argues the original study incorrectly reported Australian Government MPA criteria and emphasizes the need for consistent terminology in comparative analyses. It was last updated on 2026-06-04.
A systematic literature review of 35 peer-reviewed articles published between 2011 and 2025 on at-sea transshipment of fishery catches. The review was conducted by Mohammed Mustafa Yaseen Al-Asbahi and analyzes research across five thematic categories: monitoring and technology, policy and governance, geopolitical and international relations, economic and social aspects, and environmental sustainability. The dataset is a 685.7 KB document summarizing the methodology, results, and discussion from the review.
