The Washington State Department of Natural Resources' Nearshore Habitat Program collected this Intertidal Habitat Inventory for Puget Sound. Approximately 230 miles of shoreline in Skagit and Island Counties were surveyed during the summers of 1996 and 1997 as part of the Puget Sound Ambient Monitoring Program. The dataset is hosted by NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information and NASA's Earthdata platform.
NOAA's National Coral Reef Monitoring Program provides erosion and accretion rates from Bioerosion Monitoring Units deployed at select Pacific Ocean sites. This dataset contains the first run of BMUs, with units constructed from clean coral skeletons and left on reefs for three-year periods. Analysis was conducted using computed tomography scanners at NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory.
The Endicott Environmental Monitoring Program database contains oceanographic, meteorological, and fisheries data for the Prudhoe Bay region in the Beaufort Sea from 1985 to 1987, with some fish overwintering data from 1988. Data includes CTD measurements, currents, river discharge, coastal sediments, and snow geese observations, with some records related to breaches in the Endicott causeway. The original data was submitted on 10 diskettes to the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) and is stored in NODC formats.
NOAA's dataset contains geospatial polygons representing intertidal zones impacted by the 2015 Refugio Beach oil spill in California. The polygons are classified into High, Medium A, Medium B, and Low oil exposure levels based on data collected for the Natural Resource Damage Assessment. The layer was updated in 2018 and is provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Replication code for the academic study 'Some Birds Have Mixed Feathers' is hosted on Harvard Dataverse. The author is David Schaefer, and the record was last updated on May 21, 2026. The description notes that the data itself is not included due to concerns about deductive disclosure.
Pollard walk transect and observation data for butterflies across the state of Alaska. The dataset includes polyline layers for surveyed areas and point layers for individual butterfly observations, collected via a QuickCapture application with quality control. Data is provided by the Department of the Interior and was last updated in March 2026.
A commentary document analyzing the methodology and conclusions of a 2006 study on macrobenthos and meiobenthos distribution. The document critiques the application of the Roy et al. (2001) habitat classification model to four intermittently closed and open estuaries (ICOLLs) in New South Wales, Australia. It is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in April 2026.
Geoscience Australia applied a new genetic classification system to map the Perth submarine canyon, an area exceeding 1500 km2. The work uses 20-meter resolution bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data from 2015, integrated with sub-bottom and sediment data from 2005. This mapping aims to define spatial patterns of seabed habitats within a Marine Protected Area off southwest Australia.
Spatial projections quantify the juvenile period for obligate-seeding plant species after fire under recent and future climate scenarios. Created by Carl Gosper of the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, this data delineates population risk to inform fire and conservation management. The dataset was last updated in March 2026.
38kHz Simrad ES60 acoustic data collected during commercial fishing for spawning blue grenadier off the Tasmanian west coast in 2002. The data was gathered by the factory freezer vessel FV Ocean Dawn as part of an FRDC project and is held by CSIRO Marine Science Acoustic Group.
Daily sea surface temperature composites derived from hourly Himawari-8 satellite imagery for the Austral summer of 2016-2017. This study maps the Bonney Coast Upwelling using a topographical position index method to analyze its spatial and temporal development. The data was presented at the 2017 Australian Marine Sciences Association Conference.
Mean brodifacoum residue levels measured in carcasses from shorebirds, seabirds, ducks, egrets, passerines, fish, and invertebrates collected on Midway Atoll. Livers were analyzed for all avian samples, with data indicating method limits of detection (MLOD) and quantitation (MLOQ). The dataset was authored by Carmen C. Antaky and is available under a CC BY 4.0 license.
City of Greater Geelong provides an inventory of open spaces classified for the 2001 Open Space Network Study. The dataset includes 11 categories such as Sport, Conservation, and Foreshore, available in multiple geospatial formats. It is maintained by the City of Greater Geelong council.
Torres Strait bathymetry and topography data provides a 30-meter resolution Digital Elevation Model for the region between Australia, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea. The compilation integrates multibeam surveys, LiDAR, and satellite-derived bathymetry to support marine habitat mapping and hydrodynamic modeling.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a multi-disciplinary study of the Middle Ordovician Goldwyer Formation from four boreholes in the Canning Basin, Western Australia. The dataset integrates palynological, petrographic, molecular, and stable isotopic analyses to determine depositional environments and microbial diversity during the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event.
The Ocean Biology DAAC produces near real-time (NRT) global, gridded composites of surface chlorophyll-a concentration (chlor_a). This data suite provides a snapshot from a single orbit and supports time-series analysis, anomaly detection, and ecosystem applications. The activity was informed by the U.S. Government's Satellite Needs Working Group.
Near real-time global composites of surface chlorophyll-a concentration, a proxy for phytoplankton biomass, produced by the Ocean Biology DAAC. The data supports time-series analysis, anomaly detection, and ecosystem applications, though retrievals in coastal and inland waters may carry higher uncertainty. This activity was informed by the U.S. Government's Satellite Needs Working Group.
The Ocean Biology DAAC produces near real-time (NRT) global, gridded composites of surface chlorophyll-a concentration as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. This Sentinel-3A OLCI Level-3 Reduced Resolution (ERR) data supports time-series analysis, anomaly detection, and ecosystem applications. The activity was informed by the U.S. Government's Satellite Needs Working Group (SNWG).
