40-meter resolution bathymetric grid for the Perth Canyon Marine Park, part of Australia's 3.3 million square kilometre marine park network. Geoscience Australia compiled this data from its holdings, processed to an optimum resolution based on sonar systems, and combined it with a hillshade image. The data supports the development of 'eco-narrative' documents for park management under the National Environmental Science Program.
Bremer Marine Park in Australia's South-west Marine Park Network contains a compilation of multibeam sonar bathymetry data gridded to 100-meter spatial resolution. The dataset, compiled by Geoscience Australia, covers the Bremer Canyon and adjacent smaller canyons incising the continental slope and outer shelf. This research was supported by the National Environmental Science Program (NESP) Marine Biodiversity Hub.
Satish Kumar Sanwal's dataset from figshare, last updated in 2026, documents a study evaluating 36 garlic genotypes under control and salinity stress conditions. The data includes morpho-physiological and biochemical traits, identifying six salt-tolerant genotypes with yield loss below 15%. The study used stepwise regression to determine key traits like equatorial diameter and bulb Na+/K+ ratio for screening tolerance.
Strategic Recovery Areas for the North of Tyne Local Nature Recovery Strategy, which was adopted in March 2026. The dataset identifies large areas with a nature recovery mindset or landownership, indicating a scale of deliverability and ecological potential. It is published by Northumberland County Council and was last updated on 2026-05-28.
Winter and summer benthic habitat maps for Jervis Bay, Australia, incorporate biogeochemical variables like chlorophyll a and sulfur. Patch-types were constructed using abiotic parameters from August and February surveys, including sediment properties and bio-available elements. The dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, demonstrates that including biogeochemistry and time provides a better framework for interpreting biodiversity patterns than sedimentology alone.
Nana Liu published a dataset on figshare containing data from field nitrogen addition experiments in grasslands and related microcosm experiments in a greenhouse. The dataset includes multiple Excel sheets covering plant aboveground biomass, species richness, soil chemistry, and various plant physiological and morphological measurements. It was last updated on 2026-05-25 and is licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
Australian Capital Territory polygon data shows legislated cat containment areas. The dataset includes ACT-wide and Declared Cat Containment Areas, managed by the City Services directorate. Attributes likely contain area name, division, and declaration type, as referenced in the Domestic Animals Act 2000.
35 invasive forest insect species have their occurrence records compiled for niche shift analysis across the Northern Hemisphere. The dataset contains spatially filtered records, with no more than one per 10-km grid cell, and each record is classified as native or invaded range. Yuting Zhou published this foundational data for species distribution modeling on figshare in May 2026.
Supplementary file 1 from a study analyzing small-scale livelihood multifunctionality in global fisheries. The dataset contains metrics for 136 national fisheries systems, derived from the Illuminating Hidden Harvests and Ocean Health Index datasets. It was authored by Tianhe Jiang and last updated on 2026-05-19.
A method for integrating existing monitoring sites into new ecological surveys to improve spatial balance and reduce uncertainty. The approach is illustrated using a proposed survey of a large marine reserve in South-Eastern Australia. An R-package called MBHdesign implements the method and is available from CRAN.
Supplemental data for a Scientific Reports paper on a rapid method for detecting antimicrobial resistance. The dataset likely contains time-lapse widefield fluorescence images and analysis results from a 2x2 array of microscopes measuring bacterial response to electrical stimuli. It was authored by Ka Kiu Lee and uploaded to figshare in May 2026.
Nine National Reference Stations around Australia collect monthly zooplankton samples using a standardized drop net. The dataset likely contains community composition, biomass, and size spectrum analysis data, with taxonomic resolution evolving over time. Data is made available via the Australian Ocean Data Network portal and is interoperable with other marine observing programs.
Data collected from alpine meadow communities along an elevational gradient on Guanggai Mountain, eastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, China. The dataset includes plot-level geographic and climatic variables, soil physicochemical properties, and community-weighted mean seed traits. It was authored by shuxia li and last updated on 2026-05-30.
Processed multi-source Earth-observation data supports the manuscript "Diagnosing when vegetation greening translates into ecosystem functional gain using a multi-source ecological indicator". The 63.7 MB repository includes structural-functional mismatch classifications, sensitivity summaries, and spatial robustness outputs for temperate land systems. Author haojie zhang published the dataset on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
Monthly (or three-monthly at some stations) phytoplankton samples collected from nine National Reference Stations around the Australian coastline. The dataset includes community composition, abundance (cells/l), and biovolume (um3/L) estimates analyzed by the plankton ecology lab. Data is made available via the Australian Ocean Data Network portal and is interoperable with other national and international programs.
The MagMix project investigates nutrient and trace element transport in the outflow region of the Mississippi and Atchafalaya rivers into the northern Gulf of Mexico. It aims to understand mixing processes and their relationship to optical and biogeochemical properties, particularly concerning the formation of hypoxic 'dead zones'. The dataset is produced by the National Aeronautics Space Administration and is available on multiple platforms.
Victoria's statewide marine and coastal habitats are mapped at a 10-meter resolution using a Random Forest model with 89% accuracy. The map integrates 32,998 ground-truth survey sites and synthesizes 17% of its area from existing higher-resolution mapping products. It was developed by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) and published in 2023.
Shotgun metagenomic sequencing data from 162 breast cancer cases and 370 healthy controls in Vietnam. The dataset includes processed taxonomic and functional profiling of the gut microbiome, with an average of 10.19 million raw sequencing reads per sample. It was authored by Sang M. Nguyen and last updated on 2026-05 21.
Release 1 of 1992 describes the environmental baseline for potential petroleum exploration in Australia's offshore Timor Sea. The report analyzes modern geological processes and Quaternary evolution of the Van Diemen Rise, focusing on the East Malita Graben area. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network to meet formal requirements for environmental data collection.
VIIRS, the successor to MODIS, collects data across 22 spectral bands from 412 nm to 12 μm at resolutions of 375m and 750m. Its global binned data provides sea surface temperature (SST) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) products for environmental monitoring. Researchers use these to track marine heatwaves, detect ocean fronts, and analyze vegetation health over time.
