A dataset from SCIOPS evaluates age estimation methods for Patagonian and Antarctic toothfish using lead-radium dating. The study compares methodologies from the Center for Quantitative Fisheries Science in the USA and the Central Ageing Facility in Australia. Findings indicate age estimation accuracy for fish up to approximately 50 years and validate growth zone periodicity.
2001 to 2003 acoustic data was recorded west of the Antarctic Peninsula by 7 instruments as part of the Southern Ocean GLOBEC program. The dataset contains low-frequency (10-250 Hz) continuous samples, with a maximum volume of approximately 28 GB per instrument. It was collected by the SCIOPS organization and is situated within the Palmer Long-Term Ecological Research grid.
331 paired stations on Georges Bank during 1996 and 1997 were used to compare the 0.61-m Bongo and 1-m2 MOCNESS samplers. Catches of larvae from the MOCNESS were 3 to 5 times greater than those from the Bongo, with significant differences found for 14 of 22 dominant taxa. Meteorological and sea surface parameters were also recorded during 67 US GLOBEC cruises to the region from 1995-1999.
35 significant habitat complexes for key species in the New York Bight watershed, mapped as separate GIS layers. NOAA_NCEI compiled this data from 1971 to 1996, covering eastern New Jersey, the Hudson River to Troy, and southern Long Island. The data were designed for use at a scale of 1:100,000.
Fisheries and Oceans Canada's Coastal Environmental Baseline Program collected ecological information on the current state of key coastal ecosystems. The data includes physical, chemical, and biological baseline measurements from projects undertaken from 2018 to 2022 at six coastal sites across Canada. It supports evidence-based assessments and management decisions for preserving marine ecosystems.
BLM Idaho Range Improvement Poly is a geodatabase consolidating locations of rangeland structures on Bureau of Land Management land in Idaho. The dataset includes polygon features for structures like water troughs, fences, and reservoirs, with data migrated from historic paper systems and the automated Range Improvement Project System (RIPS). It is a work in progress, lacking data from the Coeur d'Alene and Cottonwood field offices and containing potentially incomplete attributes.
A geodatabase consolidating range improvement locations on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land in Idaho. The data includes point, line, and polygon features for structures like water troughs, fences, and wildlife guzzlers, first tracked in the 1960s. It is a work in progress and does not include all projects, with some field offices yet to migrate their data.
A geodatabase consolidating point, line, and polygon features for range improvement structures on BLM-managed land in Idaho. The data originates from the Range Improvement Project System (RIPS), which has tracked inventory, status, and maintenance since the 1960s. This is a work in progress, lacking data from some field offices and containing potentially incomplete attributes.
A geological dataset on the Quaternary evolution of plateau regions in the northern Ruby Range, southwest Yukon Territory. The dataset is provided by the Government of Yukon and was last updated in March 2026. Specific metrics on rows, columns, and size are unknown.
A 2026 study from the Government of Yukon investigates the ecological consequences of recreation on subarctic-alpine tundra as a planning tool for sustainable visitor management in protected areas. The dataset includes experimental assessments and predictive modeling outputs.
Conodont taxonomy and biostratigraphy data from Middle Ordovician to Silurian (Wenlock) basinal strata. The dataset originates from the Road River Formation in the Richardson Mountains of northern Yukon Territory. Row and column counts are unknown.
ANATOBIRD is a morphology-informed computational modeling framework for simulating the optical response of iridescent feather structures. The model integrates microstructural geometry, including barbule inclination, with nanoscale multilayer architecture composed of melanin, keratin, and air layers. It was authored by Ana Maria Valencia Palacios and last updated on April 20, 2026.
New York State provides point location data for wildlife viewing sites featured in the official New York Wildlife Viewing Guide. The dataset includes sites designated as Watchable Wildlife Sites. It was last updated by the State of New York in April 2026.
Spatial data from the Water Corporation representing settlement ponds for treated wastewater. The dataset provides infrastructure locations for sewer treatment plants, last updated in March 2026 by the Spatial Reporting team.
Parks Canada provides an annual composite measure of invasive species presence in Prince Edward Island National Park forest ecosystems. The dataset includes two annual field measurements: the percentage of forest ecosystem with invasive species present (measured across 244, 441 m2 quadrats) and the percentage of total forest area in hectares with invasive species present. It tracks four invasive plants and one insect.
Parks Canada staff collect exuviae from dragonflies and damselflies in four shallow water ponds twice per year during peak emergence periods. The objective is to acquire baseline data on species diversity and relative abundance within park wetlands. Taxonomic diversity and abundance are compared against historical levels to assess ecological integrity.
2026-03-24 updated asset registry for water treatment plant management by Water Corporation's Asset Registration team. The dataset provides geospatial and descriptive information for plant assets, available in multiple formats including WFS, WMS, GEOJSON, and SHP.
Oregon State University collected this lichen monitoring data for the National Park Service during the summer of 2012. The field work was conducted in Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, following a specific terrestrial vegetation monitoring protocol for Arctic Alaska. The data is associated with CESU agreement # H8W07060001.
1983 onwards, this dataset tracks the evolution of the Nisab of Zakat in Algeria. The Nisab is the minimum wealth threshold for Zakat eligibility, a key concept in Islamic finance. The data is sourced from Kaggle, but the specific author and collection method are unknown.
March 2026 data provides mailing addresses and contact details for primary offices of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The dataset includes geospatial coordinates and tabular contact information, available in ESRI REST and CSV formats. It is published bilingually in English and French by the department.
