A review examines the utility of abiotic surrogates for describing marine benthic biodiversity across spatial scales. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in April 2026. The work analyzes how abiotic variables relate to biodiversity processes and their measurement for resource management.
Aggregating hourly flowrate measurements from the pumpstation at the Eastern Treatment Plant (ETP) in Victoria, Australia. The treated effluent takes 4 to 8 hours to travel from the pumpstation to the ocean outfall at Boag Rocks. The data is provided by the Melbourne Water Corporation.
Encompassing hourly sewage flow volume data for the Eastern Treatment Plant (ETP) in Melbourne, Australia. It is provided by the Melbourne Water Corporation and was last updated in March 2026.
NASA's MEaSUREs program funded the first science-quality release of ocean surface wind curl and divergence data. Derived from MetOp-B ASCAT scatterometer observations, these Level 2 data are intercalibrated with MetOp-A, ScatSat-1, and QuikScat satellites. Each file corresponds to an orbital revolution, providing estimates at ~12.5 km resolution within the satellite swath.
2007 to 2024 data from over 380 plots in eight national parks tracks forest ecological integrity. The dataset includes records on forest composition, tree dieback, pests, regeneration, and invasive plants, with most plots sampled four times on a four-year panel design.
Video footage documents a benthic transect at a single station on the Lord Howe Rise. The survey was conducted by the University of Wollongong aboard the RV Southern Surveyor between April 16 and 29, 2008. The objective was to collect co-located data for testing physical parameters as surrogates of seabed biodiversity.
Level 2 data from the MetOp-A ASCAT scatterometer provide the curl and divergence of ocean surface wind and wind stress. This first science quality release, funded under the NASA MEaSUREs program, contains data from approximately 14 daily orbits at a ~12.5 km pixel resolution. The dataset has been intercalibrated with measurements from MetOp-B, ScatSat-1, and QuikScat satellites.
Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone covers 8.6 million square kilometers, spanning tropical to mid-latitude waters with distinct climatological regions. This resource documents physical, chemical, biological, and sedimentological processes in Australian shelf seas, compiled by the Australian Ocean Data Network. It was last updated in April 2026.
35.9 MB dataset analyzes bacterial and fungal microbiomes of cleptoparasitic bee species including Nomada articulata and Holcopasites calliopsidis, comparing them to host species and other wild bees. The study uses 16S rRNA and ITS1 metabarcoding data to examine microbiome diversity across different bee lifestyles and nesting behaviors. Authored by Katherine Chau, the dataset was last updated in March 2026.
A four-year collaborative habitat mapping program within the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour region produced this technical report. The scientific analyses and interpretations result from work by Geoscience Australia, the Australian Institute of Marine Science, and the Northern Territory Government Department of Environment and Natural Resources. The program was funded by the INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG Project offset funds and co-investments.
Quarterly reports detail administrative monetary penalties issued for non-compliance with Canadian food and agriculture regulations. The data is published by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and was last updated in April 2026. It covers enforcement actions under the Health of Animals Act, Plant Protection Act, and Meat Inspection Act.
158 wetlands were monitored under the South West Wetlands Monitoring Program from 1977 to 2019. The program was conducted by the Western Australian Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, with monitoring frequency varying between annual and bi-monthly intervals over the decades.
CEAMARC, a 2007-08 international survey, documented marine life and habitats near Terre Adelie and George V Land in East Antarctica. Scientists from Australia, Japan, and France conducted this census to understand evolutionary processes and predict climate change impacts. Findings were analyzed for publication in a special journal volume by late 2010.
Parks Canada conducts biannual point counts of forest songbirds in Kluane National Park and Reserve. Data includes species identification and enumeration by sight and sound, collected in June according to the Alaska Landbird Monitoring Strategy protocol. The dataset aims to monitor habitat recovery following a major spruce bark beetle outbreak in the late 1990s.
Rates of appropriate and individualized name use among bird species where contexts were reported for at least ten birds. The dataset was authored by Lauryn Benedict and is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license. It was last updated on April 17, 2026.
Context use assignments for bird species names were provided by survey-takers. Lauryn Benedict authored this dataset, which was last updated on April 17, 2026. The dataset is stored in an XLS file and is 5.5 KB in size.
5.5 KB Excel file by Lauryn Benedict, last updated April 2026. Name type category assignments indicating the number of reported phrases that contained each name type and the number of birds and species that used each name type.
Lauryn Benedict authored a dataset on avian vocalizations, last updated April 17, 2026. The data likely contains counts of birds reported to use between 1 and 6 or more unique phrases that include names, with phrase counts ranging from 1 to 12. It is stored in an XLS file of 5.5 KB.
Field sampling in late July or early August every five years tracks shrub expansion in the Kluane region of Yukon. Parks Canada monitors two sub-measures: percent cover of shrubs and height of tallest shrub. The data supports analysis of climate change impacts on alpine tundra vegetation and wildlife habitat.
A geological dataset from the Government of Yukon, published on open_canada under the OGL-CA-2.0 license and last updated on 2026-04-17. The dataset likely contains stratigraphic and architectural analysis of the Porcupine Shear Zone, focusing on the Pre-Mississippian period. Its significance in the evolution of the Northern Laurentia continent is a central theme.
