A 30-meter resolution bathymetric grid for Gifford Marine Park, part of Australia's network of 58 marine parks covering 3.3 million square kilometers. The data was compiled and processed by Geoscience Australia from its bathymetry holdings and is released as a panchromatic GeoTIFF image combining bathymetry with a hillshade. This release supports the development of 'eco-narrative' documents for park management, which interpret seafloor geomorphology, oceanography, and ecology.
Mount Isa in northern Australia preserves a 200-million-year geological record from 1800 to 1600 million years ago. This field guide from Geoscience Australia describes the region's intracontinental rifting, basin formation, and magmatic evolution leading to the breakup of the Nuna supercontinent. The record is documented through a combination of mine visits and outcrop geology.
A full dataset containing the number of reads per sample for every Amplicon Sequence Variant inferred by the dada2 pipeline. Taxonomy was assigned using the Python packages blast and basta. The dataset was authored by Alejandro Maeda Obregon and last updated on April 28, 2026.
A subset dataset containing only moth species. The data likely contains the number of reads per sample for every Amplicon Sequence Variant inferred by the dada2 pipeline after taxonomy assignation with blast and basta. Alejandro Maeda Obregon authored this dataset, which was last updated on 2026-04-28.
Updated palaeogeographic maps and tectonic models for the northern margins of the Australian plate, published by Geoscience Australia. The report details the tectonostratigraphic evolution from the Carboniferous to the Holocene, considering alternative reconstructions for the Greater Birds Head region. Many models are noted as difficult to substantiate with current data, indicating a need for further research.
A geological bulletin summarizes regional mapping over 67,000 km2 near Townsville conducted by the Bureau of Mineral Resources and the Geological Survey of Queensland from 1961 to 1967. It details the stratigraphy, tectonic evolution, and sedimentary basin development from the Precambrian to the Cainozoic era. The document describes the formation and destruction of multiple basins, orogenic events, and associated igneous activity.
2020 data detailing the locations and survey history of thousands of butterfly monitoring sites across the United Kingdom. The dataset includes standard transect sites, Wider Countryside Butterfly Survey sites, and targeted species survey sites, with information on transect length, sections, and years monitored. It is produced by the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme, a collaboration involving Butterfly Conservation, UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, British Trust for Ornithology, and Joint Nature Conservation Committee.
UKCEH Land Cover Map 2021 provides 1 km summary pixel data for Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It uses two classification schemas: 21 detailed target classes based on Biodiversity Action Plan habitats and 10 broader aggregate classes. The dataset includes percentage cover and dominant coverage raster products, with full documentation available via a DOI.
UKCEH Land Cover Map 2017 provides 1 km summary raster data for Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The dataset classifies land surface using two schemas: 21 detailed UKCEH land cover classes and 10 broader aggregate classes. It includes percentage cover and dominant coverage products, with full documentation available via the provided DOI.
Great Britain plant species presence and abundance data recorded from 159 1km squares in 2020 and 2021. The dataset is part of a rolling five-year monitoring program of 500 squares, with historical surveys dating back to 1978, conducted by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology. It supports the detection of gradual environmental changes over time.
Geoscience Australia developed conceptual models for seven types of Australian estuaries and coastal waterways. The report contains three-dimensional block diagrams and flow diagrams depicting biophysical processes like hydrology, sediment dynamics, and nutrient dynamics. This work was part of the National Estuaries Assessment and Management project.
Geoscience Australia contributed bathymetric data for the management of Australia's national marine park network, which covers 3.3 million square kilometers. The dataset includes a 5-meter resolution bathymetry grid and derived morphological surface classifications for the Geographe Marine Park. It was released as part of a National Environmental Science Program project and is not for navigational use.
One Tree Reef is a 5.5 km long, 3 km wide asymmetrical triangular reef in the Capricorn Group. The dataset describes its evolution from a karst platform 10-25m below sea level, emergent before 9600-9000 years B.P., to its present shape influenced by a southeasterly wave regime established by 4400 years B.P. Geoscience Australia Data provides this information on the reef's geomorphology and lagoonal sedimentation processes.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a geological analysis of the Lawn Hill Platform Cover's Proterozoic sediments and volcanics in northwest Queensland. The report details three stratigraphic subdivisions and identifies economic copper, lead, and zinc sulphide deposits concentrated in the lower middle McNamara Group.
Planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphic data from the Coral Sea offshore Queensland, Australia, covering the latest Pliocene to Holocene period. The dataset, from Geoscience Australia, examines 15 of 27 potential biostratigraphic events and proposes a formal zonal scheme with two new subzones. It includes the description of a new species, Bolliella praeadamsi, identified as an evolutionary intermediate.
Comprising locations for acoustic receivers deployed as part of the IMOS Animal Tracking Facility network in Australian coastal and shelf waters. It includes active deployments (not recovered within 24 months) and historical receiver stations, with deployments lasting from 1 to 10 years. The data is maintained by the Australian Ocean Data Network and the Animal Tracking Facility team.
A controlled pot experiment with four treatments and five biological replicates assessed peanut growth, yield, and rhizosphere bacterial communities under salt stress. The data, published by Ying-chun Du in 2026, includes plant growth traits, yield, and bacterial community composition at different growth stages. It demonstrates how arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation can alleviate salinity stress and enhance peanut yield.
Meta-Album's BRD dataset contains 49,054 images across 315 bird species, preprocessed to a resolution of 128x128 pixels. The dataset was created by Gerald Piosenka and extended by the Meta-Album project, with a release date of March 2022. Images retain their natural backgrounds, which the description notes can introduce environmental bias.
Meta-Album_BRD_Mini is a preprocessed subset of the Birds 400 - Species Image Classification dataset, originally created by Gerald Piosenka and curated by Dustin Carrion for Meta-Album. It contains 12,600 images across 315 bird species, each resized to 128x128 pixels. The dataset was released in March 2022 for use in few-shot image classification benchmarks.
Reproductive data for rockfish species collected by the SWFSC FED along the California coast. The study originated in winter 2009 to assess spatial, environmental, and maternal effects on egg production, and includes historic data from the 1950s, 80s, and 2000s. It is maintained by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
