5,050 GPS locations recorded at 60-minute intervals track a 92-kg male jaguar's 2,122-km dispersal over 381 days in Brazil. The data, supporting a 2026 study in Ecology, includes derived movement metrics, land cover classifications, and time spent in protected areas, with raw coordinates available upon request. It was collected via a GPS-Iridium collar from November 2024 to November 2025.
Video surveys estimated the spatial extent of long-spined sea urchin barrens on rocky reefs. The data covers the Maria Island region on Tasmania's east coast, comprising three subsites: Beaching, Bunker, and Mistaken Cape. Sampling was conducted by the Australian Ocean Data Network using a towed underwater video system.
An ecological assessment report for a proposed road upgrade in New South Wales, Australia. The NSW Roads and Traffic Authority conducted flora and fauna surveys and reviewed existing ecological information for the locality. Input was also sought from community groups with a special interest in wildlife.
A 2026 project from the NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub synthesizes existing data on sea snakes in northwestern Australia. The project, managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network, aims to define relative abundance and distribution patterns, particularly within Commonwealth Marine Reserves (CMRs). Outputs include a report on presence and abundance in reef habitats, presentations to stakeholders, and community communications via social media.
16 priority threatened and migratory marine species in Australia's North Marine Bioregion were identified from a pool of approximately 80 EPBC-listed species. The dataset results from a two-phase project involving gap analysis and collaboration with data custodians to compile new datasets and develop spatial models. It is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in June 2026.
Interpretations of key seismic profiles show distinct rift-drift architectures across three principal segments of the Australian continental margin. The dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, was last updated on 2026-06-27. It describes geological features including rift widths, sediment thickness, and tectonic mechanisms.
Cardinia Open Data provides a 13-kilometer multi-purpose trail linking Emerald, Cockatoo, and Gembrook in Australia. The trail, last updated in 2026, includes a 6.2-kilometer section through Emerald Lake Park and Wrights State Forest and a newer 6.5-kilometer scenic path. Facilities along the route include parking, BBQ areas, fitness equipment, a café, seating, a playground, picnic areas, and drinking fountains.
Geological data underlying an area of approximately 430,000 km² onshore and 165,000 km² offshore in Western Australia describes the Canning Basin. The dataset likely contains information on about 10,000 meters of sedimentary rocks spanning the Palaeozoic, Mesozoic, and Cainozoic eras, structured into 11 informal basin-wide intervals. It is published by the Australian Ocean Data Network via data.gov.au and was last updated in June 2026.
Geomorphic feature mapping of the Perth submarine canyon off southwest Australia, covering an area greater than 1500 km². The dataset applies a new genetic classification system to high-resolution bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data acquired in 2015. It was presented at the 2017 American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting.
Five seafloor-spreading episodes from 155 to 55 million years ago dissected eastern Gondwanaland to form Australia's passive margins. The dataset, from the Australian Ocean Data Network, describes the protracted geological and structural evolution of these margins, including rift-phase and postbreakup subsidence patterns. It was last updated on 2026-06-27.
An assemblage of approximately 1.3-billion-year-old microfossils from the McMinn Formation shales in Australia's Northern Territory. The microbiota includes algal cells, filaments, large acritarchs, and giant filaments, with evidence suggesting eukaryotic organisms. The Australian Ocean Data Network provides this data, which is noted for its exceptional preservation due to low thermal metamorphism.
55 species of plant microfossils, distributed among 32 genera, were recovered from Lower Carboniferous sediments in four boreholes in the Bonaparte Gulf Basin. The palynological flora is dominated by the species Granulatisporites frustulentus, which accounts for 44-83 percent of the spore populations. The data was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on 2026-06-27.
1.6 million km² of submarine plateaus exist within the Australian exclusive economic zone, representing about 13.8% of the world's known inventory. The Australian Ocean Data Network presents results from two major marine surveys on the Lord Howe Rise plateau in 2003 and 2007, collecting biological samples, underwater photos, video, and sonar bathymetry data.
Palaeoshorelines on the Australian continental shelf are relict coastal structures formed during periods of lower sea level, primarily at 30–40 m and 70–90 m depths. The dataset, published in Continental Shelf Research in 2017, provides a geospatial framework for investigating marine biodiversity distributions and targeting archaeological sites. These features, mapped by the Australian Ocean Data Network, record oceanographic and geological regimes from the Late Quaternary period up to 128,000 years ago.
Anna E. Hiller assembled georeferenced occurrence records for four Hawaiian arthropod lineages: Laupala, AMC Clade Drosophila, Tetragnatha, and Nesosydne. The data include filtered model inputs and final Maxent species distribution models in ASCII format, based on environmental layers like temperature, rainfall, and vegetation. The models were published in 2017, with some excluded due to low record counts or poor AUC scores.
England's Special Protection Areas where condition 5 on General Licences GL40, GL41, and GL42 applies. The dataset is intended as a guide to identify sites affected by these 2021 licence conditions, issued by Defra. It was created by Natural England and was last updated on 13 July 2026.
One of two datasets comprising the Priority River Habitat Map, this dataset identifies rivers and streams in England exhibiting a high degree of naturalness. The classification, developed by Natural England, evaluates habitat integrity based on hydrological, physical, physico-chemical, and biological components. High levels of naturalness, characterized by minimal anthropogenic impact and natural processes, are described as rare in English rivers.
One of two datasets comprising the Priority River Habitat Map under the UK Biodiversity Action Plan. It identifies headwater areas selected as most natural based on land cover, representing a significant proportion of the river habitat network. The dataset is produced by Natural England and was last updated on 2026-07-13.
The 2007 Natural England Outer Wash Annex I habitat survey provides data from a variety of marine environments in the Outer Wash region. It is a collation of surveys conducted to specified standards for purposes including Marine Conservation Zone verification, condition assessments, and surveys of Natura 2000 site features. The dataset likely contains information on benthic and intertidal habitats to support environmental evidence gathering.
2007 Natural England Greater Thames Annex I habitat survey is a collation of marine environmental surveys conducted to specified standards. The survey purposes include verification of recommended Marine Conservation Zones, condition assessments, and surveys of Natura 2000 site features. Data likely contains records of intertidal and benthic habitats from the Greater Thames area.
