Methylobacterium extorquens lipidomic data explores how this plant-associated Gram-negative bacterium adapts its membrane composition across a range of chemical and physical conditions. Using shotgun lipidomics, the dataset captures changes induced by varying temperature, hyperosmotic and detergent stress, carbon sources, and cell density. The patterns reveal that a small subset of lipids and structural features account for most of the adaptive remodeling, providing a resource for understanding minimal lipidomic requirements for membrane functionality.
Experimental data from a study testing how physical activity in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) alters seed dispersal estimates for two riparian plant species (Carex acuta and C. riparia). The dataset likely contains seed retrieval patterns, retention times, and germination outcomes for seeds subjected to three activity levels (basal metabolic rate, 2×BMR, and 3×BMR) over 15 hours. The research was conducted by Casper H. A. van Leeuwen of the University of Oslo and supports the locomotion-priority mode hypothesis.
A georeferenced database compiled from scientific literature between 1970 and 2017 provides measured values of bioturbation intensity, burrow ventilation rates for 42 species, and sediment mixed depth. Martin Solan from the University of Southampton created this dataset to inform global and habitat-specific biogeochemical models. It includes metadata on study source, timing, location, methodology, and environmental conditions.
Data from a study by Lysanne Snijders of Wageningen University & Research analyzing the context-dependent effects of radio transmitter attachment on great tits (Parus major). The dataset likely contains records from birds tagged over three environmentally dissimilar years, comparing breeding probability and nest desertion between tagged and control groups. It was collected as part of a project studying social and communication networks.
Historical and modern seabed mapping efforts around Australia, documented from the 1960s onward. The dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, describes surveys using systems like SeaBeam, GLORIA, SeaMarc II, HMR1, and Simrad EM12D. It notes that less than 5% of Australia's offshore jurisdiction had been mapped at the time of the paper.
Annual continental-scale elevation and exposure products for Australia's intertidal zone, mapped at a 10m resolution. The data is derived from Digital Earth Australia's archive of open-source Landsat and Sentinel-2 satellite data and is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network. The record was last updated on 2026-06-16.
Geoscience Australia acquired and analyzed geological data for the Capel and Faust basins under government programs from 2003 to 2011. The dataset includes high-quality 2D seismic data, multibeam bathymetry, gravity and magnetic data, and rock dredge samples from water depths of 1300-2500 meters. It was used for a geological and petroleum prospectivity assessment, with findings presented at the Australian Earth Sciences Convention in July 2010.
89 fungicide trials on apple scab conducted across Europe between 2008 and 2018 provide records of disease incidence and yield. The data includes disease intensity and frequency measurements from both visual and class-based assessment methods. Field trials were conducted by BASF, Germany, and the dataset was authored by Niels Holst of Aarhus University.
TGB Osborn (Koonamore) Vegetation Reserve hosts a long-term monitoring dataset tracking individual Myoporum plants from 1955. Measurements include species ID, height, crown diameters, basal circumference, health comments, and geolocation for each tagged plant, with records primarily spanning 1975 to 2011. The dataset has been cleaned and standardized to FAIR principles by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN), with version 2.1 released in February 2026.
Global gridded fishing mortality (F) relative to the fishing mortality that supports maximum sustainable yield (FMSY) for three fish functional types: forage fish, large pelagic fish, and demersal fish. The dataset, created by P. Daniël van Denderen of the Technical University of Denmark, covers the years 1841 to 2004 at a 0.5-degree spatial resolution. It was generated using reconstructed catch data and a data-limited assessment model to estimate historical fishing patterns.
A 2500 km transect in the eastern Indian Ocean measured bacterial richness increasing from 800 to 1400 OTUs (a 42% increase) towards higher latitudes. The dataset, produced by Eric J. Raes of the Alfred-Wegener-Institut Helmholtz-Zentrum für Polar- und Meeresforschung, links this increase to primary productivity, nitrogen levels, and phytoplankton community structure. It provides evidence supporting the productivity mechanism for marine microbial diversity gradients.
The Seasonal Seed Dispersal of Callitris verrucosa dataset contains empirical observations of primary wind-borne and secondary on-ground seed dispersal distances. Data was collected during spring, summer, and autumn seasons, with seeds released from three heights and wind characteristics measured using an ultrasonic anemometer. The dataset was published via the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network's Data Discovery portal.
9,248 to 9,302 bird species have their nests systematically classified by site, structure, and attachment, representing all 36 avian orders. This dataset fills a gap in structured nest trait data, compiled from text descriptions, photos, and videos in online databases and literature. It enables analysis of nest trait evolution and adaptation across phylogenetic and geographic dimensions.
Spatial layers detail forest connectivity across New South Wales from 1995 to 2020, accounting for habitat quality, fragmentation, and landscape position. The dataset is processed through land-use masking and fuzzy-logic certainty analysis based on forest cover extent grids. It supersedes a previous version covering 1995 to 2019 and is published by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network.
Geoscience Australia collected seabed samples in the eastern Bonaparte Gulf in 2009/2010 to characterize physical, chemical, and biological properties. A 124-sample dataset with 74 physical and geochemical variables was analyzed using clustering methods to link seabed properties to infauna biodiversity patterns. The analysis provides insights into ecosystem processes influencing biodiversity in the region.
More than ten million tons of urban solid waste were received by the top-performing landfills in Rio de Janeiro state between 2013 and 2015. This dataset contains the results of applying the state's Final Destination of Waste Quality Index to evaluate the operational quality of sanitary landfills. The analysis was conducted by Carlos Eduardo Soares Canejo Pinheiro da Cunha and critiques the effectiveness of public waste management policies.
skDER Representative Genomes for Select Bacterial Taxa is a collection of dereplicated bacterial genome assemblies for 18 specific taxa, derived from the GTDB R214 database. The dataset includes representative genomes selected via greedy clustering with skDER at 99% ANI and 90% AF cutoffs, alongside files detailing clustering relationships and taxonomic classifications. It provides a non-redundant genomic resource for comparative studies across genera like Escherichia, Klebsiella, and Acinetobacter.
The Joseph Bonaparte Gulf survey (SOL4934, GA survey #0322) was conducted by the R.V. Solander between 27 August and 24 September 2009 in collaboration with the Australian Institute of Marine Science and the Northern Territory Government. Underwater video footage and still images were collected from 46 stations to support geological and biological studies of the region's late-Quaternary evolution. Shipboard photographs of barcoded biological specimens were also taken.
A 2026 report from the Australian Ocean Data Network summarises findings from a study on multibeam echosounder (MBES) user requirements. The study gathered responses from 103 people across 69 Australian and international government, private sector, and academic entities via an online questionnaire and two workshops. It identifies 30 specific MBES survey purposes across 10 general application areas.
12 metagenome-assembled genomes of the Undinarchaeota phylum provide insights into the debated evolution of DPANN archaea.
